The worst food thing that has ever happened.

[Fuckmeupthearseandrogerme]

This is proper gross, much worse than when I ate a crumpet and then looked at the one left in the pack and found it was riddled with mould, in fact it is so awful that I will leave a space so you can choose not to read. If you do read have you ever had anything as awful and if so have you got over it?

I cracked a free range egg into my pan and it had a half formed dead chick in it. Turns out not so dh had left the box in his van for two weeks before putting into fridge, van evidently warm enough to start the process. not envy

Have you had anything worse?

Dead spider in my grapes was the worst one I had.

That’s so bad.

Oh. 🤢

Half a small cockroach in my rice from an Indian takeaway........half 🤮🤮

I ate half a ham sandwich someone made me on a group picnic and was really struggling To eat it it tasted so wrong. A fly had got into the ham and when I opened it to look the half that was left was full of large white maggots. I so nearly threw up and had already eaten some

I found a live moth in a box of chocolates once, but that was more disappointing than out and out gross

Thank you. This happened two weeks ago but couldn't fact telling anyone, at least I didn't eat it, consuming maggots and half a roach is definitely worse.

Was it a quails egg?

We went on honeymoon to Bali, we booked a driver to take us on a tour of the top of the island.

So far, so good, included in the price, was lunch, where lots of other tours were stopping, for some reason rather than just digging in, I pulled the flakes of poached salmon apart, and there it was in all its glory a bluebottle. The flakes were so tight together it clearly hatched in there. I actually recoiled, the chair skidded backwards across the floor and I went outside to to try and vom.

I have a stomach of iron so when I tell you that I had the very worst head and neck cancer years later and I had radio and chemo at the same time and only threw up once, that will give you some idea of visceral the reaction was.

I didn't eat any salmon other than smoked for about fifteen years.

just for clarity......

Oh dear God, I feel faint.

Wow this thread is amazing. Placemarking.

My best friend’s parents owned a village shop.
They opened a crate of bananas that had been delivered to find a snake inside.

Hens aren't mated so how was there a chick in it?

A lump of mould in a can of apple Tango.

I took a swig from an open can. That I had left there for an indeterminate amount of time (teenager).

I didn't make that mistake again.

Placemarking!

When I was training to be a nurse in the 1980s a fellow student had a cooler box in her room. Very posh at the time.Offered me pate on toast. Thought it was odd tasting but had never had it before. Then I looked closely and it was crawling with maggots. Never eaten it again.

Once I was eating a pack of pistachio nuts, just de-shelling them and chucking them in my mouth without paying much attention. Then I happened to glance down and the shell didn't contain a pistachio, but a massive insect larvae of some sort.

Also picking strawberries at a local pick your own farm where they also sold local cream. Remember tucking into a bowl of strawberries and cream and there were worms wriggling about in the cream

redsky I had similar with a bag of nuts at my parents once- it was full of moth larvae!!!

I once drank a whole cup of tea and it was only the final mouthful that revealed the massive dead spider that must have been hiding amongst the tea bags (and subsequently boiled to death).

🤢🤢🤢🤢

That's worse than the time I was drunk and used a juice can as an ashtray, forgot about it and took a big mouthful then picked up a second can to rinse out my mouth which had also been used as an ashtray.

My sister lunched in The Hilton in Caracas and there was a cockroach in her iced water.

I once ate most of a bag of liquorice allsorts, got near the bottom and it was full of maggots

Also, whilst living abroad as a child, I ate cornflakes for a couple of years with weevils in thinking the forrin cornflakes must have little burnt bits in. Took the parents a while to realise

Oh, that just reminded me; my brother once ordered a pint of Guinness in a pub which arrived suspiciously quickly. (Pulling a pint of Guinness takes ages to get the head right).
On the first mouthful, a half smoked cigarette floated into his mouth 🤮

A gone off bottle of school milk as a child (yes the free ones we all got).

I have struggled with pasteurised milk ever since, even with the thought of it in food like pancakes etc. I go without or buy the non pasteurised stuff when I can.

I was once visiting an then boyfriend (not in my home town)

I was starving so headed over to the takeaway over the road-ordered my curry and went back to his to scoff it alone

Only it was foul-rubbery and salty so ate quite a bit as I was staving but then gave up and binned it

It all came out about 3 weeks later that it wasn’t beef in the curry

It was German Shepard meat-health control found half of its body in the freezer and shut down the takeaway

I remember feeling so sick when I found out
