Seriously, there has to be something you have eaten in your life that has been absolutely 100% vile that you will never be able to wipe the taste from your memory. I was inspired to create this thread after eating what has to be the WORST microwave lasagne I have ever had in my life. An Asda own brand one that was just flooded with nasty tasting bechamel sauce and cardboard tasting pasta sheets. Euughh. What have been your worst culinary horrors?
Except for that Whopper at Burger King's that got me food poisoning for 3 days, or those Chicken McNuggets that got me sick for a week... I guess the food I like the least is Sauerkraut. I haven't had it in a while but the first time I did I almost threw up. This shit is VILE. It is SO DISGUSTING, OH MY GOD. I can hardly put it into words. And I haven't yet had culinary horrors since I actually don't buy packaged shit. I used to get instant ramen but that's the furthest I'd go.
I got sick once from what I suspect was a batch of bad chicken fingers a couple years ago but there isn't an actual food that I have eaten that I would describe as vile. I might not eat a plateful of anything but I'll eat a bit of whatever.
Man I'll have to think about this... I remember as a kid a friend and I were staying with one of our parent's friends who was kinda babysitting us, and she tried to make this spicy indian chicken dish with that spicy yoghurt stuff they sometimes have and anyway it was terrible. Then there was one time I had a pizza from Pizza Hut that looked like diarrhea on thin crust and after I ate it I felt terribly sick.
The worst thing I've ever tried was jellyfish. I had no idea jellyfish was even edible, until I went with some friends to a buffet at an authentic Chinese restaurant. One of the friends with me - his parents are from Hong Kong - badgered me into trying everything there ("You should be more adventurous/how can you at least not TRY it?" etc). The shark fin soup, octopus and squid I tried at that dinner were fairly gross, but the jellyfish was absolutely PUTRID! Even the texture was gross (it was like eating crunchy jello).
Vegemite. I don't even know why someone would willingly put it in their mouth, unless it was like someone who was anorexic and needed assistance vomiting.
OH GOD, I TRIED MARMITE A FEW WEEKS AGO. Gross! DEFINITELY one of my most HORRID foods. Thank you for reminding me.
Funny part is I love Marmite, but have never tried Vegemite. Oh, parsnips, ginger (EUGH I puke on sight, smell and taste.) And... *Shudders* Pork. Hate them with such a passion.
sketch's vagina, so foul but in all seriousness i really can't think of anything, maybe i just havn't been as adventurous with my dieting.
