Doner Kebab in England

Biscuits and "gravy." The "gravy" was flour mixed in water to a porridge consistency.

gumbo with hot dogs instead of andouille . no holy trinity, no roux, just file and tony's seasoning blend dumped into a pot of boiled chicken and hot dogs.

I still keep thinking about this post, really stands out to me as horrible in a thread full of horrors.

Back in elementary school there was this awful sauce made out of beef hearts, cream and god only knows of what else.

Fuuck, I remember this, or a similar one. Had livers too. Wasn't even the worst of the food in rotation. Fortunately, despite the best efforts of school cooks to turn everything into a nightmare, they didn't turn me off any food, as I recognized being attacked by their creations, not the food or ingredients themselves.

1. I once confused sugar and salt baking cookies. That wasn’t edible.
2. Multiple absolutely hideous things overseas. Some kind of intestine soup in Singapore. A bowl of fried chicken necks in Malaysia. Whole fried frogs also in Singapore. Soggy tofu. Yuck (I do actually like a lot of the food out there, but there are limits.)
2. School tapioca pudding. Like frogspawn in spunk. Actually most 1970/80s school dinners. So much fried spam, it was vile

Dog followed by pig brain.

Had pork brains in scrambled eggs before, I liked them but obviously, YMMV.
What's dog like?

In all fairness, the brain was cooked incorrectly, but it was still very gross.

Dog was only one time and I didn't know it was dog till after I ate, but it was slightly gamey and as it was stewed, the consistency and texture were terrible. Not recommended.

Catfish that my uncle didn't de-fat and dredge in milk before battering and frying. It tasted like shrek's asshole.

 

[Banquet Meal]

once, i was plowing through this bag of andys hot fries, not paying attention at all....suddenly, my husband was like "no, DONT " and i look down to see that i had a handful of fries, cheese dust, and a huge ass dead spider

I went to a friend's house for Christmas in high school, her mom had been slow roasting chestnuts all day and encouraged me to try one. To this day, I have no idea what in the world they were stewing in or if chestnuts just naturally taste that horrible, and I didn't want to be rude and ask. It tasted how tires smell (but worse) combined with some kind of rot. Maybe cat shit. Friend and her family seemed to enjoy them, I have never touched chestnuts since.

Recently had a sushi platter and everything was good except one piece. I don't know what kind of fish it was. It still had skin on it and it was white. It was so fishy and flaky that it made the rest of the meal inedible to me.

My aunt and uncle once took us to a chinese restaurant they had never been before, it was a huge place with dirty ass aquariums in it that were too small for the huge fish they had in them. We waited an hour for our food, I think I got curry chicken and general tso's chicken, but it wouldnt have mattered because everything we were served was just the blandest slop ever. If you've ever had those really cheap dollar frozen TV dinners, imagine that but served to you dressed up all 'nice'. It all tasted the same, and the biggest slap in the face was the bill was something like $200. We would have been better off just getting Panda Express.

Many years ago, my father took me to this incredibly expensive Italian restaurant. Dinner for him, his wife and I was 800 dollars. He had hyped this place up in fairly serious manner, but it had many years since he had been there last. and he also had gone at the wife's insistence . This was the worst food I've ever had in my life. I ordered this seafood pasta dish I remember what the fuck it was called but GOD DAMN was it nasty. The shrimp had this fucking weird texture, like freshly made ricotta cheese, they just disintegrated in your mouth with absolutely no give. Like as soon as it hit your tonge, it was a creamy curdled shrimp mousse, but it was whole shrimp. I didn't eat more than 2. The entire dish tasted off, the sauce was okay it was tomato based so I just picked at that and the mussels.

How ever I look to my dads plate, He ordered a steak and pasta combination dish and the look of abject horror on his face was hysterical. He nervously went "Heya son, wanna try my steak" he then sawed a piece of the steak off and put it on my plate. It tasted like spoiled fish. I dont know how the fuck they managed it, but his steak tasted just like my seafood pasta only that a steak should not taste like seafood pasta, it was the food equivalent of your lemonade being a glass of cat piss. It was also way overdone. The pasta was a carbonara and tasted decent, but ive thrown together many 2AM desperation carbonaras and all them were better than that. His wife got classic Ciao E pepe, it was also okay.

The end of the meal was really funny in hind sight, 3 people with almost completely full plates staring ponderously at how they spent the better part of a grand on what ever the fuck that meal was supposed to be.

Though his wife gave some insight. In the time my father had gone there, all of the staff used to speak Italian and the place was run buy real Italians. But I noticed and she confirmed (she speaks Portuguese) that all of the staff wasn't speaking Italian but Portuguese. Turns out the restaurant had been bought recently and they gutted the old staff. The place closed a few months after that.

Durian. It tastes exactly like the smell. And the smell is beyond words, it must be experienced in order to fully grasp the true power of the gigastench. To give you an idea, it smells almost as bad a nigger sweat. Now imagine eating a mouthful of creamy nigger sweat but even more pungent + vomit + sewer + baby diaper.

 

[Xarpho's Return]

Maybe not the "worst" thing but coconut-based dairy-free yogurt is very, very bad. It looks like and has the viscosity of cum and tastes like coconut oil right out of the container.

 

[Crisis Instigator]

Boiled peanuts. Wife bought a can for giggles after all the boiled peanut stands we saw on our last vacation. It was basically slime with mush at the center.

Tomato candy from the Korean market.

So one time I went to an Asian restaurant. Just a hole in the wall nothing fancy like Sushi, Hotpot or even Korean BBQ. I remember I had gotten some rice substance on the side with my order and it appeared to have seaweed and sesame seeds sprinkled on top, of course I tired it and the best way to describe it was like a hot rice pudding but if instead of being a pleasant sweet flavor it was a gunky over cooked rice slop and tasted like an unsalted fish turd. Something about that texture of hot sea discharge was so critically brutal and psychologically damaging at the same time I had to get my food to go because I was about to throw up. After that I never had something that wasn't just of mediocre value at worst.
Apologizes to any Asian kiwis but if you had to eat this dish growing up I think that might have been a passive aggressive way of your family telling you that you were a failure in their eyes.
