What's the worst food you've ever eaten?

Preface: All seafood makes me violently ill. I wish it weren't so, but here we are.
While living in Switzerland we went to an ikea and found what I thought to be spreadable cheese in a toothpaste type tube. For reference lots of stuff over there comes in those types of tubes. Why not cheese?
I was so excited to get home and immediately tore the cap off and squeezed a giant dollop of what my mouth expected to be something like cheez whiz.
NOPE. NOPE FUCKING NOPE. It was some kind of fish paste with roe...
I puked for like 30 minutes straight and couldn't get that taste out of my mouth until we found some kirsch liqueur that I also hate, but whose taste will overpower anything.

In their defense, it literally says "kaviar."

Rancid butter. My mother bought it from a farm and insisted it was fine. It was so, so bad. I was only 4 years old at the time and I seriously thought I didn't like butter for years.

I once went to an Ethiopian restaurant with my family. Never again.
I can't even describe it, but whatever evil concoction they call their version of bread is easily the worst thing I ever attempted to eat.
It's like a sourdough pancake. Absolutely delicious, and even more so when it soaks up the juices from the rest of the platter.

Witloof, its this variant of cabbage that is long thin and completely white. And it has one of the most pungent bitter tastes ive ever had the misfortune to discover. The taste is hard to describe, but it's similar to bee spit,also known as honey, except replace all the love and care that the bees spat with, with pure malice and wasp hatred. It is incredibly sweet, ungodly bitter and has after cooking the texture of overcooked pasta
My mother used to serve it without sauce, ham, or anything else to hide it. Vile.

Is that someone people actually eat?
It is popular in a lot of Southeast Asia. You can even buy commercial chili pastes with the essence of water bug in them.

Once I was with a group at a breakfast buffet, and I had a piece of bacon that was about 95% fat. Someone said they'd give me $5 to pour a packet of Sweet'n Low on it and eat it.
I regretted taking them up on it.
My true worst isn't technically food, but we cooked down a bunch of San Pedro cactus to try to make mescaline. The juice tasted like ultra concentrated dirty bong water.
The worst part is it didn't work.

Would you describe yourself as a masochist?

Two things. Once I had fish in the student cafeteria that gave me food poisoning. Since then, I can't stand fish and seafood anymore.
The other was a lasagne I had at a Tesco cafe. I took one bite, and returned it to the counter, stating that this is the worst lasagne that ever happened to me.

Nah - it just tastes clean and fresh to meā¦itās refreshing

Oh they have none of the blame! I am a big stupid man who didn't bother to read it at all.

How was it prepared? Whenever I've seen whale cuisine it's typically a piece of blubber eaten raw.
It was raw. My grandpa loved it though.

Haha weirdo checking in, tastes like soap but it's like refreshing? Kinda like you can say something minty tastes like toothpaste but it's not really a bad thing

I imagine you also like to wear tight fitting latex or leather and be beaten because "it's important to be disciplined sometimes"

I LOOOOVE sushi. I love allll sushi. Iāve never had a piece of sushi I didnāt like.
ā¦until I was at a nice sushi place, and I got sushi with a quail egg on it. I donāt know what else was on it, because the semi-raw or raw quail yolk ball was horrid. I couldnāt stand it. I spit it out and I felt soooo bad.

That's one of the advantages of becoming old. Your taste buds stop working.
