I’ve eaten a lot of pretty crazy stuff by western standards. The most challenging thing I have eaten was a giant water bug. The most challenging thing I haven’t been able to bring myself to eat was balut.
The water bug was definitely not the worst thing I’ve eaten though; it was unbelievably fragrant. Practically like eating perfume.
I love eating fish. Most fish is incredible.
Fish with too much lime is, however, HORRIBLE and makes me want to puke. Poorly made noodles are also not great.
Two things. Once I had fish in the student cafeteria that gave me food poisoning. Since then, I can't stand fish and seafood anymore.
The other was a lasagne I had at a Tesco cafe. I took one bite, and returned it to the counter, stating that this is the worst lasagne that ever happened to me.
It was something like mashed pumpkin. I forget the exact variety.
I was for dinner at some friend's place. He gives me a bit of that pumpkin stuff, saying I have to taste it because it turned out so great. It was left-overs from the previous day. I take a spoon and it tastes absolutely rotten. Well, ok. He is trying his best to be an amateur chef, but I do have doubts about some of his culinary judgments. So, I put on the polite face and just eat it.
After a few spoons, I can't take it anymore. I say: "Sorry, this tastes absolutely rotten." He tastes of it, nods and hurries out the room to throw it away. So yeah. I ate spoiled food. I didn't get sick but I haven't eaten pumpkin since. The taste really stayed with me.
Cocolate pudding in a hotel in reims france.
I dont know what it was but it wasnt chocolate!
Nettle stew. Yes, it’s good for you. It tastes like cow shit to me.
A Pizza. It was in Milan. Directly in front of the cathedral. It tasted like a frozen pizza, and I was utterly disappointed.
The only time I don't like pizza is when they use that weird cheap dough that resembles a giant version of what you get in lunchables
Properly prepared or improperly prepared?
I had a chicken sandwich once that was still pink in the middle... Disgusting!
Mother in law fed me pink turkey.
She used an insta pot, loaded to the brim with turkey legs, but she set it on air fryer mode by accident. Mine was on top, so it looked fine, and she didn't notice the lower ones were raw until I'd already started eating.
Fun night. Didn't get sick 🤷♂️
Chicken sashimi is a thing in Japan, so consider yourself cultured
I've had that and it wasn't bad per se, it was just like... why? None of the benefits of the flavors of other raw meats like steak or horse, just bland and boring
Never had it but I've heard it kinda resembles a mild cut of sashimi
