Some food items like peanut butter and chocolate go very well together.
And while orange juice may be the perfect beverage to compliment your meal at the start of the day, that doesn't mean it goes well with all the breakfast foods, especially when mixed together.
But as far as actor Bella Ramsey is concerned when it comes to an unconventional breakfast pairing, it's what tastes good that counts.
The Last of Us star admitted in a resurfaced interview with the Hollywood Reporter that the last meal Ramsey had at the time was cornflakes with dried strawberries and "orange juice instead of milk.”
The non-binary actor, who uses all pronouns, raved about the breakfast combo, commenting:
"It’s so good.”
"There once wasn't milk that I could drink. There was some oatmeal for almond milk so I just tried orange juice on it," explained Ramsey about a situation that happened "years ago."
When Pascal asked if Ramsey enjoyed it, the 19-year-old British actor said:
"I loved it and it's been a thing ever since."
The revelation was made when Ramsey and their The Last of Us co-star Pedro Pascal sat down for a game of "The Last Time I..." with the media outlet, which you can see here.

Ramsey's method of taking cornflakes with OJ divided the internet, starting with those who found it mind-boggling.

Ramsey stans, however, believed the opposite was true.
\u201c@sourkettle no no no see i\u2019ve done this with fruit loops and they get it. it works\u201d— kettle \u0f02 (@kettle \u0f02) 1680010094
\u201c@sourkettle Why is this a thing, do you not do this in the states, as an 80's child in the UK, it was very normal to be given this option until the mid 90s then it seemed to die out, but as a kid i remember in hotels etc it was not uncommon.\u201d— kettle \u0f02 (@kettle \u0f02) 1680010094
On March 29, Ramsey reiterated that eating OJ with cornflakes was an ongoing practice.
\u201c@sourkettle I had it for breakfast this morning.\u201d— kettle \u0f02 (@kettle \u0f02) 1680010094

The confirmation sparked curiosity.

Ramsey also experienced a learning moment when they were asked what the last rerun was, which the actor didn't know was a syndicated sitcom after it initially aired. "Like Friends," said Ramsey, taking mental note.
When the interviewer asked what the last role the actors played that got the most questions, Ramsey said it was playing Lyanna Mormont in HBO's Game of Thrones, while Pascal said he's always asked if he was "the guy" from Narcos, Game of Thrones, or The Mandalorian–to which he exuberantly proclaimed it was all him.
And when asked when the two last laughed on set together, Pascal said:
"We had a lot of laugh-out-loud moments on the set of 'The Last of Us' up until the last day."
Pascal explained that his co-star gets the giggles and said "That's the disease."

Ramsey and Pascal played an unlikely duo brought together under unexpected circumstances to set out on an important, life-saving mission after a fungal infection of mutuated cordyceps causes a global pandemic in which human victims turn into rabid, flesh-eating zombies.
Based on the video game of the same name, the binge-worthy HBO series became an instant success and was ranked as one of the all-time greatest video game adaptations.
