worst food that you have ever eaten

[Airscrew]

1st. JB88,  vegtables like Okra and squash should be fried, tastes great, cornmeal batter and fried.  None of the boiled stringy crap...  My wife is from Georgia, her mom tried to get me to eat it boiled, no way...all her brothers were like ohhhh, you cant tell mom your not gonna eat her prize squash cassarole,..

Worst food I can remember... 8 years old, grandmothers house in Phoeinx, Ham, green beans, boiled potatos, and other stuff (long time ago dont remember the entire menu) .. my plate is passed up and I ask for ham, green beans and the potatos.  My mom hands my plate back and I said wait I want some gravy too.  "On what?"  "The ham and potatoes"  My mom pours on the gravy and hands me my plate.  I dig in, take my fork and cut a piece of potato, its tuff, i'm thinking in my little 8 year old brain, boiled potatoes are supposed to be soft, I'm thinking some one didnt cook the potatoes right as I put a big piece in my mouth and bite down,..OOMMGG, blech,, I make all kinds of faces, start to spit it out, my mom "dont you dare spit that out!"  My uncles and grandparents are just laughing their tulips off.  I chew and swallow it as fast as I can, trying not to taste this vile stuff.  I finally swallow and ask what it is,... "Turnips"  2nd would be brussel sprout, just smelling them cook makes me sick to my stomach..

Spinach.

The very smell of the stuff literally makes me nauseous.

Im not real partial to squid either

[nirvana]

I don't mind turnips, I'd prefer to not make a meal out of them but that's life.  In fact that is what they remind me of, is a raw potato.

without a doubt curried goat in jamaica

[ByeBye]

I LOVE the smell of liver being cooked, but the taste makes me want to down a big gulp of piss and fly beer.

Not sure which was worse -- mental block causing me to forget the proper names:

In Chicago I was invited to a Mexican friend's house for dinner where I was served some kind of "traditional" soup -- made from the stomach lining of a pig, from what they told me afterward.

In Bahia in Brazil they have another "traditional" food some friends wanted me to eat.  It was a boiled bean curd, cut in half, with yellow mustard and shrimp.  Now the shrimp might not sound all that bad, but these are the shrimp that are too small to be sold -- they boil them live, and just spoon this stuff on the bean curd -- shell, legs and all.  I was picking the tiny legs out from between my teeth all afternoon . . .

Thats it.

Thank you -- I think.

[Maverick]

Menudo is great stuff, if done properly. It's downright nasty if not.

I absolutely will not have anything to do with liver, in any form. YUCK!!!!

If I need iron I'll take vitamins.

Quite obvious that no one here has ever eaten K rations. Or Kim Chi that has been fermented in a unwashed diesel drum. Then there are those rice and fish rolls from the Philippines that they throw up on the roof of the hooch to dry and ripen (read rot). How about the curdled sour cream and fresh blood pudding from Mongolia now that is truly disgusting.

I think this describes it . . .

Note that the black-eyed "pea" is a type of bean, ergo bean curd.

I think I recall it being called something else but it sure sounds like it irrespective of the name.  the nasty oil they fried it in left a slick texture for a while.  washed it down with a liter of antartica. the curried goat left a bad taste even after copius amounts of the equally nasty red stripe.  curried goat still wins it for me.

I just remembered something else that I found repugnant.  in northern florida I had to eat sausage, biscuits and gravy.  that stuff would gag a maggot.  thats a draw with the curried goat IMHO.
