"If it is spicy then you should drink the dairy (processed milk) to 'cut' the spicy flavor."

Another example is quite good, food with a creamy texture or taste should not be combined with a creamy drink as well, preferably combined with a drink with a fresh taste like citrus.

"Food salad nuance then the drink can choose a creamy scented, slightly acidic and soda."
