The worst meal I ever had was...

Liver... I actually throw up a little when I try to eat it. I do not care what you put on it, or how you cook it. I cannot get past the taste.
My worst meal experience though was burger king, I was 16 and my brother and I wanted burger king so we begged my mother for some money to get a few Whopper Juniors. I ate one and a half of the two I bought and gave the other half to my mother. My brother started getting sick in the car, by the time we got home was sweating, and ran for the bathroom. I thought it was funny, I went for a ride on my horse and by the time I got back from my hour usual ride my stomach felt like someone hit it with a hammer. I ran for the bathroom, and couldn't stop running for the next 24 hours. My mother was sick about 1 hour after me, obviously it went by amount eaten and metabolism. It's pretty obvious we had food poisoning. It was awful. I didn't eat at Burger King for 12 years, I even work behind a Burger King at the fascility I am currently with and until recently I couldn't brave it. Of course that Burger King was the same one I had gotten food poisoning from.
I am over it now. But it was awful.0 -
On vacation in NC, we had lunch at a place called Dirty ****'s Crab House. Deep fried gator-tots and something claiming to be a crab melt. Greasy greasy greasy. None of us could finish our food. The waiter even offered TUMs at the end of the meal.0

anything with the words "Lean Cuisine" on it0

Ketchup Chips.
I haven't even had them yet, but I am pretty sure they are going to be terrible.
One of my favourites right up there with dill pickle chips!!!
and yes I am Canadian0 -
deep fried cockroaches and water beetles...apparently its common snack fare in thailand, and being a foolish tourist I decided to be adventurous.
I'll never get over the feeling of little insect legs on my tongue. Gag.
Burger King "ketchup and fries" chips are definitely up there.0 -
I went to Applebee's and order a salad (the one with strawberries and blueberries) and it came with a side of short and curlies. Didn't see them until almost done. I threw up immediately.
Ordered Papa John's pizza. I was so hungry when it finally came, I saw a brown spot on it and thought it was burnt cheese (which I love) and took a huge bite right at the brown spot. It was an Andies mint chocolate. Needless to say haven't eaten there again.
Went to Checkers ordered a burger. It was frozen in the middle. I'll eat there but won't touch their burgers.
Worst made by a family member: My dad called it sh** on a shingle and said it was made in the army. It was ground beef with corn starch and onions on a piece of bread.0 -
One of the very worst:
I don’t even know full well what was in it (might be better that way) – but it was something my former mother in law made from time to time –
She called it Bugs Bunny (I have NO idea why, and I certainly can’t find it online – you would expect that to be a carrot or vegetable dish – but alas no…)… it was some kind of baked pasta dish that featured about 6 pounds of pasta shells, probably 10 types of CHEAP cheese (knowing her, Velveeta was probably in it) and of course a gallon of pasta sauce. It was baked in a big flat casserole dish. Might have had ground chuck in it too, not sure.
It was the greasiest, heaviest most disgusting cinder block of food I’ve ever seen. The first time I took some assuming it might be a good pasta dish (it looked ok at first – VERY FIRST – glance) and I didn’t like it, but still ate it to be polite. The next time, I was grateful that she had made some other, less-gross choices as well at the pastapalooza, and I ate those instead.0 -
ugh I can't choose between two!
The first was my own doing, a spinach and cheese strata that I found on pinterest. It looked and smelled delicious, tasted like savory rotten french toast
The second was a meal at this place called Midevil Manor. One of those places where you watch jousting and eat with your hands. Everything about that meal was awful. Bad mussels, huge mugs of PBR beer, gross gross gross0 -
When I was in basic training they gave me an MRE that was called the Omelet with ham. I say that is what it was called because I swear the thing must have been expired. The thing that was in that package was nothing close to an omelet with ham. It was some sort of disgusting thing that was not understood by science yet.
I told my drill sergeant that my MRE was expired and I needed another one. I will never forget the uplifting words of advise he gave me that day. he said
"Listen here you sorry sack of communist trash I don't care if your MRE is expired you are going to eat it or I'll cram it up your *kitten* and make you march around the camp on your hands. With any luck your MRE will kill you and I'll have one less monkey turd to polish up and send back home his mommy."
I walked back over to the log I was sitting on and ate that thing. I think the omelet did try to kill be fortunately my body was smart enough to vomit up the omelet on the ruck march home after which I felt much better. Since I was in basic training and forced to eat an expired medical experiment gone wrong all the while have drill sergeants telling me how wonderful I was in their own special way I am going to call that my worst meal ever.0 -
ANYTHING WITH GOAT CHEESE0

Two meals are stuck in my brain.
My Mum's curried sausages. Cheap nasty pork sausages, boiled so the fat comes out and the casing melts and creates a slimy sticky goo that has the consistency of snot (sorry), which is then flavoured with horrible chemical tasting 'Indian curry' powder that is not only a bright yellow/green shade (more snot similarity) but also adds a gritty texture. Truly revolting. Ate it a lot in my childhood - had one of those parents who made you stay at the table until you had eaten all your dinner so it was either a huge glass of water and choke it down, or a very late night . Believe me, eating cold curried sausages until midnight is no fun....
Oher one was in Turkey at a group lunch at the end of a bus tour during which the food at been routinely pretty bad. This was the pinnacle of the trip. . A huge pale grey/white lump of oily, boiled to death chicken, , skin still on plus a few feather stumps sticking out, that looked like a peice of human flesh. Accompanied by greasy boiled potates drowned in what tasted like engine oil and a pile of hard little not properly cooked frozen peas. I threw a big strop, as did quite a few others, and went over the road to a shop to buy crisps, chocolate bars and cakes instead. The joys of travelling.0 -
I've had a few. I've had terrible Chinese food while in Tasmania (Australia), I ordered honey chicken which tasted like the just poured honey of some fried chicken (it's is called honey chicken but there's other stuff in the sauce the makes the honey flavour more subtle), I've had honey chicken that just tasted of soy in Malaysia too.
TWICE I've had no bacon in my bacon and egg McMuffin. I joked about having no bacon the second time too, then opened my McMuffin up and there was really no bacon in it.0 -
I once had this weird Dutch salted candy thing. It tasted like watching Two and a Half Men feels
LOL! Dropies is what they're called. Heavily salted liquorice. You have to be Dutch to like them. I'm half Dutch and never really took to them myself. Personally, I think the main ingredients are tire rubber and road salt.0 -
Worst made by a family member: My dad called it sh** on a shingle and said it was made in the army. It was ground beef with corn starch and onions on a piece of bread.
My mom makes what she calls "updated **** on a shingle" and it's really good, lol. It's essentially breakfast sausage and pepper gravy on top of toast. Delicious!0 -
The worst meal I didn't have was a boyfriend's version of mac cheese.
Buy quick cook macaroni. The three minute kind. Then boil an entire packet it for twenty minutes until it resembles a pan of melted baby jellyfish. Add tomato soup. Then, stir in a pound and a half of the nastiest cheddar imitation I've ever encountered, the sort of geese that slides out of the packet on a slick of its own grease.
Slop this radioactively coloured filth onto the largest plate you can find. Until it is overflowing.
Then grate more cheese on the top. Because, you know, there's only a little bit inside.
Then wait five minutes for it to 'cool down so you can eat it quicker', at which point it is getting cold and the cheese is starting to congeal. Just like it's going to do around your heart.
Now you call your significant other for this wonderful, romantic meal.
And get upset when she tries one forkful and nearly barfs over the floor (as you've not bothered laying the table, this is to be shovelled down whilst sitting on the floor watching television.)
Ugh.
And to make matters worse, he put my plate in the fridge and reheated it later.
I have idiot exes.0 -
unflavored whey protein mixed with water tastes like semen
Yes but is the texture the same?!0 -
And the 'spaghetti' my then boyfriend made me which consisted of 2 minute noodles topped with ketchup and plastic cheese singles.
Please tell me you never let him in the kitchen again?0 -

I love to make S.O.S! It comes out so yummy I have people lick the plates.0 -
Conch with a side of macaroni and cheese from a box. I was on a tiny island and had no other options than to eat what was put in front of me.0

I think my son wins the worst meal ever award when he was eating a hamburger at a restaurant and got halfway through before realizing there was no burger in there! LOL They forgot it.
Or perhaps my daughter wins for the time she found a turkey talon in the ground turkey in tacos or some casserole or something that I made with ground turkey.
Or the same daughter that found a gear from the equipment used to make the dough at a local pizza restaurant, in her pizza.0 -

Cooked right, conch is absolutely delicious (assuming that this wasn't cooked right--you may just not have a taste for it.) But I'm from Florida, so maybe it's my nostalgia talking, haha.0 -
I still remember a time with a friend when I was like 12 where we decided to do our own little version of fear factor, sorta. One thing was drinking this HORRIBLE concoction we made. It had pepsi, taco bell mild sauce, mustard, thawed banana popsicle, ketchup, and god only knows what else. Hands down, worst thing EVER.0

Fish tacos....(I made terrible fish tacos)
I also had a fish fajita platter at a diner, it tasted funny took 3 bites got food posioning for 4 days from 3 bites of food. The place closed down 2 weeks later.
Yeah...ordering fish at a diner = not a good idea. Sorry to read about your food poisoning, ugh!0 -
lunch that we tried at a place called 5 guys, the meal actually came out in a bag that was dripping with grease, the burgers were well done and all the juice had dripped out onto/into the bun and veggies, and the fries were so soggy from the grease that you could not even eat them. Needless to say we have never gone back again and tell all of our friends to stay away from that place but we have a few that actually like it
I will never eat at a 5 Guys again either. Disgusting. Similar experience...and yet we still know people that RAVE about their food.0 -

Man do I remember my late nights spent at the kitchen table... Told my aunt once that I was NOT going to eat brussel sprouts because they were nasty. My punishment? Sitting at the kitchen table for hours trying to get them down. I'd never tried them but I did that night and they were nasty. Even worse when you tried to wash them down with super sweet tea. Ick!0 -

Oh my goodness! I was once served a frozen margarita with a piece of the blender's blade in it. That was fun.0 -
We went to France for the day and got lost most of the time, drove around endlessly. Didn't eat all day.
Got on the ferry on the way home and went to the cafe on there, the food was disgusting, I don't even remember what it was supposed to be. It looked like vomit, I tried it but I couldn't eat it.
*shuddering* at the memory.0 -
Ketchup Chips.
I haven't even had them yet, but I am pretty sure they are going to be terrible.
ummmm i like em LOL0 -
Wow. Some of these are agonizingly horrifying.
The worst meal I've ever had was actually in Cambodia, in a floating restaurant in the middle of Tonle Sap Lake. The menu wasn't very detailed (and only in Khmer, so I didn't understand most of it) but I ordered something that from what I could tell was called "Chicken and Vegetable dish". It was... possibly chicken? But I don't know of any chicken that has parts that look like what I was served. One ...object was, from all appearances, part of the esophagus. Not exactly appealing.0 -
I'm from australia and travelled int the US for for 4 weeks - it was so much fun! We were in Vegas and went to Hooters for dinner one night, everything was ridiculously oily and deepfried and the fake cheese that is squirted over everything was foul! Never ever again!0
