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

Haggis was bad.

FIL'S aspic - like a jelly with prawns in it. He also adds celery (because he knows i don't like it but usually eat it out of politeness)

Sea urchin in Hong Kong - like a piece of sewage in the sea.

Sausage and kidney casserole. Love(d) both sausages & kidneys before this but they were suspended , not floating in a grey phlegm like substance
I'm dry heaving remembering it

Me too ! And I'm Scottish 😂😂😂

I come from a family of enthusiastic 'experimental' cooks
My dad made a spicy stew where he planned to add 'spices', he just added spicy things so it was a carrot, parsnip and boiled chicken stew with mustard, horseradish, ginger, chilli flakes, garam masala and a few tablespoons of wasabi. He added a lot of vinegar- for the flavour.
It tasted like lukewarm spicy vomit with chunks of plain rubbery chicken floating in it .

I’ll eat nearly everything! some things mentioned on here I love- like Haggis. But I absolutely drew the line at the ‘breakfast muffin’ thing I was served as breakfast last time I flew with virgin Atlantic. I’d no idea you could make a straightforward item (English muffin, sausage patty and an egg) so absolutely vile- even after I’d removed the rubberised egg thing it was still absolutely inedible!

American chocolate. Texture like chalk, dry and bitter.

Ox tongue 🤮
Tripe 🤮
Jellied eels 🤮

Second votes for American chocolate and Durian, which is absolutely grim. To the point where there are signs up in Thailand of a picture of Durian and a cross through it in public areas as it not only tastes like hell on a plate but smells like death too.

The powder they give you for worms 🤢
Or gave, this was around 1993.
Of course having worms is also 🤢

A "chicken" taco from a roadside van in Mexico.

Snails. I'm pretty adventurous so I had high hopes but I just couldn't swallow them.

Prawns

A type of Egyptian cheese called Mish. It looks a bit like grey cottage cheese and is left in clay pots on people's roofs In the hot sun for months, sometimes years, to mature. It also often contains small worms ( I found this out after!).

It is the only food I have tasted where I have literally had to run to the bathroom to vomit after!.

When I lived at home lard was used to fry foods. One day we had tinned fruit for dessert and afterwards I took a swig of the juice out of the tin. However without me knowing my mother had poured the liquid lard into the tin and I had a mouthful of cool, semi liquid fat. I never swigged out of tins again.

Molokheya.

I live in Cairo. Molokheya is a vegetable that the locals like to spring on you as a test.

It is usually described as 'tastes like spinach, slimy like okra', which genuinely doesn't do it justice. It's got an intensely 'greens' flavour (you can feel it doing you good!) but there are literally no words for the sliminess.

Not like okra. Probably the closest thing I could compare the texture to is...well, you know when you're ovulating? That incredibly slippery mucus? Bit like that. Only more so.

I'm sufficiently acclimatised enough now to enjoy the odd spoonful alongside a mound of rice. Has to be stirred in, though. When hanging off a spoon, that stuff defies the law of physics. It forms...globules of slime.

One of my students (who loves the stuff) describes it as If Cthulhu Invented A Vegetable.

Tête de veau . Andouillette

Eggs. Fried egg, poached egg, scrambled egg. Any kind of egg really. The smell, taste and texture makes me heave.

Oysters come a very close second. They look like a vulva which is enough to put me off. It's the swallowing whole, live seawater flavoured jelly thing that gets me.

Oddly enough I do like durian. The smell though is just unreal. The very worst sort of public toilet is a garden of flowers by comparison.

Some friends bought us some preserved/dried crispy fish bits back from Iceland. Really, really nasty.
It smelled so awful I couldn't even have it in the house, it lived in the porch until DH had finished it. (He of the Cast Iron Guts).
And I eat almost anything -- andouillette, haggis, black pudding/boudin noir, eels and tripe included.
(Bit I just thought of something else that was very unpleasant to have in your mouth -- savoury licorice. Very popular in Denmark, apparently.)

Outside a temple in Thailand a man had a stall selling sugar doughnut ball things. Only we bit in to the sweet doughnut to be met with a fish paste centre. 😟

Whelks, but compared to some of the above think I have had it easy!

Neocate (baby formula for baby's who are allergic to dairy).

I can't describe how bad it is. It just tastes like something that should not be tasted.

Regular formula is also pretty disgusting.

Back in the Wooing Days, my now-husband cooked us spaghetti cooked in red wine with a whole wheel of goat's cheese on top.

The heartburn was real for days.

DH loves whelks but i can't face them after biting into an 'off' one a few years ago.
Tasted like salty sewage.

I'm over here with the sea urchin people. Utterly revolting. Texture and taste and it lingers...

Things I haven't minded:

Snake
Kangaroo
Snails
Ants (and other assorted bugs)
Anything out of the sea (except oysters)
Any and all cheese.
