What's the worst food you have ever eaten that was cooked by someone else?

[QueenOfMyWorld]

Under cooked bacon wrapped around philidelphia cheese. It was a starter that a friend did,I vomited that night,might have been unrelated but doubt it.Urgh can still taste it years later

I cooked a Thai green curry for a friend, as it's their favourite. It was disgusting (still no idea where I went wrong as I have cooked successful green curries since) but they manfully ate most of it! Every time they are invited for dinner now, they suggest we eat out! 😂

Squid stuffed with black pudding.... and for a starter we had broad bean humous! It was vile. All of it. Our friends cooked it for us at their house one evening. Eurgh.

cold left over mince from a shepherd's pie served on warm toast.
MIL
It was one of her standard "tee's" when my DH was a kid.
She gave it to me in the first year of our marriage.
It made me retch

In the days before Microwaves - yes Im old

Lentil terrine. Looked lovely in its orange and green layers...but totally tasteless and a foul texture.

I also had a thai green curry at the same house, which was like dishwater with bits in, and a beef and chocolate stew which was quite indescribable.

The woman later had an affair with my DH. He should have known better!

A friend made “sweet and sour chicken”. The sweet and sour sauce was made out of 50% ketchup, 50% mayonnnaise and a dash of hot water.

SW tiramisu recipe

A calzone in Paris. Burnt one side (the side down) and undercooked and runny on the top. euugrrgh.

These all sound vile! 😳

Also in Paris, a sandwich from a deli in the Jewish quarter. It had olives with seeds/pips in it and I broke a tooth.

Prawn lasagne. I had a taste of the sauce before I knew what it was and it tasted like the sea. Not nice at all.

Im vegetarian and it was my DHs new boss' dinner party (yes I know it sounds like a scripts from a sitcom) and he'd forgotten to mention the fact that I'm veggie. I was too embarrassed to say anything and snuck it onto DHs plate untill spotted by the wife.

It don't go down well - she eyeballed me then yelled 'you're vegetarian!!!' (thank God I wasn't anorexic or had diarrhoea for God's sake) as if I'd just committed some hideous sin and grabbed my plate away. I forget what I had to eat that night.

Apple mash by my mother, just mash with raw slices of cooking apple dotted through it

And I mean vegetarian as is I don't eat any meat fish or foul.

A fried egg with a side salad. On a black plate, which made the oily egg look like some kind of medical specimen. 20 years ago. In work!

I didn't actually eat it but DP once made curry with condensed milk instead of coconut milk.

I've come on this thread to check if any of the cooking mentioned is mine
Not guilty for any of these so far...

My worst meal was a risotto cooked with raw kidney beans. it was cooked by a new boyfriend who was trying to impress me (and just sat there, smiling indulgently as I politely pushed it around my plate). I was only 16 and was too silly to tell him what he had done, so I tentatively ate a few of the beans. Crikey, I've never been so ill in my life; my insides were practically turned inside out.

Not in the same league as some of the others, but we were once given a chicken casserole where the cook (inexperienced) had put some raw chicken legs in a dish and poured a cook-in sauce over the top, then baked in the oven. The chicken was cooked through but the skin was all flabby. Not nice.

Also not that bad, but odd - my mum is a great cook mostly, but serves lasagne made out of tinned white sauce and bolognese made with a jar of Dolmio and on the side she serves boiled potatoes and cooked veg. It doesn't work.

Luke warm but not cooked through peach slices with oats chucked on top.

My DH's aunt cooked lunch for us once. A pile of mash potatoes topped by beef sausages fried in a frying pan and the sausage fat from the pan poured over the lot. It was disgusting, my throat closed up and I could not eat it.

It was 40 years ago and I have never forgotten it......

Ex made a chicken salad. He cooked the chicken then kept it hot on a plate then served salad on the greasy plate.

He also poached eggs for an hour as "I wasn't sure how long they took" you could have used them as missiles!

Roast dinner in a student flat.

Frozen pre cooked chicken , warmed up served with pre made frozen mash, cold birds eye veg mix, and 'gravy' which was bisto powder in hit water. Dessert never happened.

Also in a (different) student flat, fritatta - endless slices of potato, onions that were on the turn, runny egg, wafer thin ham and mozarella. Flatmate was aghast when I asked for tomato sauce and salt! Cheap wine to drink. Mars bar for dessert.

Thisnamechanger some of the top curry houses use condensed milk in the masala as it saves adding sugar at the end!

Worst I was was coq au vin at a dinner party. It was made with chicken drumsticks(!) and was over cooked so the bones were meatless. Watching people spoon bones onto their plates made me delighted for once to be the last one at the table.

Something my MIL made with leftovers of pot au feu. I'm not a big fan of very dead meat and veg to start out with (much prefer a shabby shabby over a pot au feu), but this was made 2 days later with pot au feu with was left at room temperature. It was a purplish hued, glistening pile of food not dissimilar to dog food.

I normally at least eat a couple bites of my MIL's food - I couldn't even manage that with whatever this was. It apparently is something traditionally made with leftovers of pot au feu,
