most disgusting thing you have eaten

[greenacrylicpaint]

typing as I try to get rid of the taste of ewe's milk chocolate. what fresh hell is that?

when out running one summer a bug got into my mouth. it tasted awfully bitter. and was kind of fizzy.

my mum once made the most awful gravy where she added ipecac leaves. tasted like bile.

<- boak that is

Mussels, the texture makes my skin crawl.

Tripe

Raw jellyfish covered in chilli sauce. It was just mildly ocean tasting but then gelatinous and spicy. Minging.

Marron bone jelly - os à moelle
Calf's head - tête de veau with or without its sauce gribiche
Heart from any animal
Andouille and andouillette

Can eat gizzards, frog's legs, liver, kidneys, snails and tripe, no problem, but the above... beurk !

oh and any kind of french terrine makes me barf, just looking at it let alone smelling it

Bone marrow at a fancy restaurant. Just no.

Anything cooked by my ex mil. Gravy was gravy salt mixed with hot tap water poured over veg from a pressure cooker that had been cooked for 4 hours...

Yes. I can eat all sorts of strong cheese based on cows' milk, but goat cheese turns my stomach. It's a shame because I always feel I ought to like it.

Soused chicken foot

Goat milk. Just tasted like pure goat. And polenta. My dad bought some once because he had seen it on a cooking show. He sliced it and grilled it for like 2 seconds. It was burnt on top and raw inside. It was like rubber.

This, more specifically Hershey's kisses. I don’t understand how anyone could eat them.

Another vote for andouille and andouillette from me

Bone marrow and urchins, both in Sydney. no reflection on Sydney.

I thought the same until I tried mature goats gouda.
that was rather nice.

Stilton ice cream. Disgusting 🤢

Octopus tentacle tapas in Spain, there is just something very wrong with the texture of it, especially the jelly bit sandwiched in the middle 🤢

Refugee camp. Burmese border (for context Aid worker)

Something that 'smelt wrong' musty..

Tuned out to be some kind of ape...

Hákarl - Icelandic fermented shark. Couldn't look a prawn in the face for about 6 months after trying some

Andouillette have had a couple of mentions, they're definitely an acquired texture and taste. I found the texture the most off-putting. The smell definitely has a hint of the colon about it ("shredded intestine", as someone put it, is disguising which end of the intestine is involved). Not unpleasant, as sausages go. Wouldn't call it disgusting.

If you want disgusting, you should try Kirsty's Vegan Mac'n'Cheese from the supermarket freezer aisle. That's truly awful.

Tobacco flavoured ice cream - it tasted like an ashtray and smelled like an old pub carpet!! Oh and whitebait that's disgusting too !!

The salmon paste pasta from Jack Monroe’s book. Sorry Jack, that one was nasty as fuck.

Agree on Hersheys.

But I am rapidly understanding that I have quite an unadventurous palate compared to some of you!

Yes, accidentally ordered it on a crepe in France. I eat virtually everything but really couldn't get this down.

@habibihabibi American chocolate has butyric acid in it which gives it that sicky taste.

I love snails! Must be really garlicky though.

Whale blubber. Like fat exploding in your mouth.

Raw smoked lamb.

I don't eat meat now.
