    I would say that the worst thing that I had ever eaten is any of the menu items at Mc Donalds... No offense to anyone on MFP who is a fast food fan...

    I almost died because I used to eat that junk... The best thing that I have heard about Mc Donalds is that they have had significant loss of sales for the past year... I had been so glad that I heard that... I look forward to the eventual demise of Mc Donalds...

    I second the McD's grossout. I will drink their coffee, though.

    The worst thing I've ever eaten? The shrimp dish I had in a Chinese restaurant in the Guatemala mountains.... it gave me horrible food poisoning. The shrimp of the world are safe now. I will never eat one again.

    Awww. :( I love shrimp, but I understand completely.

    I was obsessed with mint chocolate chip ice cream. At a friend's b-day party, I binged and ate like...half of her carton (plus a bunch of other stuff). Spent all night barfing it up and lost the taste for it.

    Chia seed "pudding," AKA tadpole eggs.
    And those nasty tapioca balls in bubble tea.
    Durian. Smelled like sewage, methane and socks. Tasted like vanilla pudding. But. The. Smell. Oof.
    Chopped liver.

    Chorizo = Mexican head cheese.

    It was great with nachos and queso blanco. But then...

    I love a good Mexican chorizo. The cheap ones are made with lymph nodes, I made the mistake of buying the cheap stuff once. Yuck.

    Bacon poutine. French fries topped with pepperjack cheese, bacon and bacon cream gravy. Amazing!!!! Why is that the worst? Becauce I'll be eating a bland steamed something and thinking, "If only I could have bacon poutine, my taste buds would be so happy." I'm ruined forever for healhty food.

    My second choice. One day my ex husband made hamburgers. He didn't know the difference between a clove of garlic and a head of garlic. As much as I like garlic this was just plain ghastly.

    Sea Urchin at a sushi restaurant. It tasted like I took a header into a tidal pool at the beach and got a mouthful of slimy sand.

    I tried a recipe from here for amazingly light carrot muffins.

    that poor carrot.

    they were so sweet they nearly sucked my eyeballs from my head, and despite double the allotted time in the oven they never cooked in the middle, just formed crispy caps atop an oozy centre.

    what made me laugh was that I reported the fail back on the thread, complete with a photo of their final resting place - everyone else was saying 'ooh, sounds delicious, must try' and I felt it was my duty to warn the public, and the person who had posted the recipe immediately started a new thread with the same recipe so that people wouldn't see the bad press! I was like 'don't turn your back on me, the people have a right to know!'

    I did too. It cooks down into a pool of salty grease. Pretty much inedible.

    I had a disgusting SOS-type thing- I don't remember there being any meat in it. It was like unflavored runny oatmeal poured over toast. AWFUL!

    Sake.

    Steamed Mexican Sandwiches. My mom made them years ago. Bread, some weird salsa stuff in the middle, wrapped in aluminum foil and ironed with a clothes iron to heat them up.

    Nori. I know it's incredibly good for us vegetarians, but it tastes like fish *kitten*.

    Vegan mayo.


    Oh yeah that stuff is just horrid

    vegan cheese.

    I eat vegan mayo all the time, but vegan "cheese" is an insult to food.

    Cuy - Salted and Roasted Ecuadorian Guinea Pig. Guy at work made it for me....it was gamey and salty but very reminiscent of pork. The gaminess takes some getting used to but I tried it a second time with the head and feet removed and it was pretty decent.

    This thread pretty much makes me truly believe people are weird.

    And clearly everything is subjective. I adore at least 3/4 of these hated things.

    It's a tie!

    Escargot is TERRIBLE. Tried it on a cruise and nearly barfed.
    I'm not a fan of calamari/full, purple baby squid either.

    Eel is iffy. If it's prepared properly, I'll eat it. :)

    ive had bbq eel before it was really good.....escargot has always sounded gross

    I love escargot. It's an excuse to eat butter and garlic.



    YES! Tasted escargot as a child, given us by a French lady. My mother nearly puked at the idea, wouldn't try it, and was absolutely furious with me because I loved it, still do.

    Tofu hotdogs

    I had a room mate in college who was vegetarian and when she went home for Winter break told me I could eat the food she left so it wouldn't get freezer burned. I liked her veggie burgers and tofu stir fry so thought tofu hotdogs would be alright.... never again.

    I tried to make the "cauliflower pizza dough"... Steamed cauliflower with egg and seasoning spread thin and baked into a pizza crust. Sounds like a great idea right?! DISCUSTING! I like cauliflower so you would assume I could choke it down, no such luck! it went to the trash. I guess it is a good diet food though because I didn't have an appetite for anything else! :tongue:

    THIS!!

    It tasted exactly like what it was; mushed cauliflower wit cheese and sauce :noway:

    When my son was a baby, he had diarrhea. During one of the countless diaper changes he let go in while I was in the middle of changing him. And some got on my lip. Even though I have no proof, I've been convinced for the last 23 years that some got in my mouth some how. :sick:

    Yep...top that one.

    Mushrooms................I have tried all kinds, cooked various ways and have even tried to eat them raw in salads........

    Grossest thing in nature.
