What's the worst food you've ever eaten?
-
Couple months ago I got a tonsillectomy. I got nerve damage in my tongue as a side effect of a tool they used and everything tastes different since. Tomato based pasta sauces have been the absolute worst, it tastes very metallic. The only normal type of food I can stand is Asian food that isn't breaded/fried.
LOL, 80% of our home cooked meals either have tomatoes and/or fried Asian food.

Iāve eaten a lot of pretty crazy stuff by western standards. The most challenging thing I have eaten was a giant water bug. The most challenging thing I havenāt been able to bring myself to eat was balut.
The water bug was definitely not the worst thing Iāve eaten though; it was unbelievably fragrant. Practically like eating perfume.
Giant water bug? I love those things!

Apparently none y'all have tried vegemite.
Come at me Australia!

Ohā¦ Iām so sorry. That should be illegal.

Vegemite tastes like what I imagine the under-side of a cow to taste.
It tastes like the smell of road surface.
It should have a warning label: Not to be taken orally.
It's clearly a prank that Australia plays with everyone.Also, I was born in England, but have lived in Australia for 25 years.

Balut, it tasted good actually but the physiological hurdles I could only eat one and could not do it again.
Oh my gā¦.. you just took me back to my childhood! I miss balut! My kids loved it until they grew up and figured out what it was.

TĆŖte de veau and andouillettes.
I'll try everything once but the first is just jelly with cartilage, reminding you it used to be a face.
The second is offal sausage that smells like the intestines weren't washed out properly.

Cultured?
Hey, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Logically, you should be thanking whoever made that for you.

Looks like a euro burger on a US bun.

Nope, looked it up. Similar though.

Someone on lemmy posted this recently: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_pineapple
My mother in law is Korean so out of curiosity I had her pick up the Korean dish made from it (meonggae) after seeing the lemmy post. It taste like the smell of a dank metal spiral stair case at Seaworld. Even through all the (imo) tasty spices and seasoning. I asked my MIL what she likes about it and she said, "it tastes so fresh because one bite and your transported to the sea". Especially with the older generation, the context can make the food way more than the taste
That's like the one seafood I don't like, specifically because of the metal taste. You can be "transported to the sea" without needing to lick spoons while you're underwater.

Sorry folks, not a big fan of Dinuguan. Everyone I know loves it. Not a fan of Sisig (sorry @Dis32) and bitter melon.
I do love Kuhol with and without the gĆ”tĆ¢ (coconut milk). My grandmother used to make it and thatās how I fell in love with those ugly snails. Yum. Frogs legs are delicious!
D@mn! Now, Iām hungry and I miss my grandma.

You donāt enjoy the unholy union of packing wrap and kitchen sponge?
How about tripe, the other kitchen sponge?

Chicken sashimi is a thing in Japan, so consider yourself cultured
I've had that and it wasn't bad per se, it was just like... why? None of the benefits of the flavors of other raw meats like steak or horse, just bland and boring

Never had it but I've heard it kinda resembles a mild cut of sashimi

Flamin Hot Cheetos Mac and Cheese. Had to open all the windows to get the smell out

Never smelt one but I assume really sweaty?
Musky and hairy, like a slightly damp dog thatās been out in the hot sun, but muskier.

I tried it as a kid when my school had some kind of international day and lunch was a catered buffet of tons of different food from around the world.
It was basicslly pure salt on my tastebuds.

Caine's.
With both Raising Caine's and Chik-fil-a being super popular, I have to assume that mediocre chicken is more well liked than actually good chicken.
