Very Informal Food Tastings At Home - Ideas Please!

My friends and I meet up every 6 weeks or so, sometimes go out and sometimes one of us hosts. When this happens, we usually do a small, fun activity as a sort of focal point to the evening. We have in the past done food tastings eg cheese, crisps, jelly beans, chocolate, fruit etc and I am looking for any fresh ideas. Must be very easy to obtain, and not involve alcohol.

Sausage rolls? There are a lot of interesting vegetarian and vegan ones eg Higgidy.
