Finally!! When you want to be fancy and still eat the random junk food you love, here are six wine pairings for you and your favorite snacks.
1. With Doritos, try a sparkling Lambrusco. It’s an Italian red wine that’s not quite as bubbly as champagne. They go well together because the bubbles, quote, “cut through the chips’ oily charisma.”
2. With barbecue potato chips, go for a rosé. No real explanation for that one. He just says they go well together.
3. With Slim Jims, try a red zinfandel. It’s a little spicier than other wines, so it goes well with spiced meat.
4. With Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, drink chardonnay. The “buttery” flavor of the wine goes well with the creaminess of the mac and cheese. He says it’s also the best wine to drink with popcorn.
5. With a grilled cheese sandwich, drink pinot noir. Again, no real explanation. He says he’s tried it, and they go great together.
6. With Froot Loops, try an Australian sparkling shiraz. It’s sweet and goes well with anything fruity.
