Oh my.

New thread, but worth watching as it unfolds over time.

What is the worst thing you ever ate?

I'm always stumbling into new forums on DU. There are so many!

What is the worst thing you have ever ate? I had beondegi once and thought something died in my mouth. How about you??

Quote
Beondegi (Korean: 번데기) are a popular snack food in Korean cuisine. Literally meaning "chrysalis" or "pupa" in Korean, Beondegi are steamed or boiled silkworm pupae which are seasoned and eaten as a snack. Beondegi are often served by street vendors, as well as in restaurants and drinking establishments. They are also sold in cans in grocery stores and convenience stores, but they must be boiled in water before serving. Beondegi is not always sold in the market and is usually sold from street vendors, although it is possible to buy the live variant for personal preparation.

1. Without a doubt, it was lutfisk. Had it once in Minnesota.

Quote
Lutefisk (Norwegian) or Lutfisk (Swedish) pronounced [lʉːtfesk] in Northern and Central Norway, [lʉːtəfɪsk] in Southern Norway, [lʉːtfɪsk] in Sweden and in Finland (Finnish: lipeäkala)) is a traditional dish of some Nordic countries. It is made from aged stockfish (air-dried whitefish) or dried/salted whitefish (klippfisk) and lye (lut). It is gelatinous in texture, and has an extremely strong, pungent odor. Its name literally means "lye fish."

2. A red raspberry jello/crushed tomato creation topped with a mayo/whipped cream topping

that my MIL made. There were 14 of us (all family) at her house for dinner. I've never seen every single one of us trying to find someplace to ditch a plate full of food before. The only people that ate it were my MIL and FIL.

3. I'll probably generate some negativity for this, but

it was either Indian or Nepalese food. I've been to both types of restaurants, and in each case, wound up with slimy-textured, rotten-tasting "food" that could have been previously-eaten and regurgitated by someone else for all I know. Maybe I just had a really unlucky choice, and everything else in their culinary culture is fantastic, but each had at least one kind of meal on the menu that was hideously dreadful. Enough so that I vowed never to try return to an Indian or Nepalese restaurant.
 
On the other hand, one of the best meals I ever had was at an Ethiopean restaurant. Some incredibly spicy shredded beef dish dipped out with pancake-like bread.

I'd have to say it was at a Middle Eastern restaurant my Mother took me to. Everything had some kind of red crap on it that tasted like sawdust. Bitter sawdust.   :puke:

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

14. Hákarl, The Icelandic "treat".

The smell is pretty offensive, and the taste isn't that wonderful. It has an underlying fish taste, but I couldn't get past the ammonia aftertaste. I ate a bite out of courtesy and curiosity with some hiking companions, but refused a second offering even though I was somewhat famished.

If a DUmmie won't eat it, maybe it should be outlawed.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Stinky fruit -----Some kind of something that grows like Brussels Sprouts on the side of a tree in Asia.

Really weird, smells like dirty socks or feet.    Very expensive up here, someone went to Boston to buy a couple and brought it in to work.    

I took a sniff and tried a very small amount, and the next day was offered another slice, what the heck I ate it and on the third day I loved it.

Then some worker told me that the fruit had some kind of enzyme that speeded up the heart, had a grandparent that died from eating too much.    

I was on heart medication at that time and that was the last bite of Stinky Fruit I ever ate, but the last thing one expects can become addicting.

Though the fish sandwich I got from Arby's last week was pretty damn disgusting. I rarely eat fast food, and that reminded me why.

There is a restaurant called "Grits and Pizza" in a town south of here.  Their menu is exactly what is claims.

The shrimp and grits look pretty good.  I'll have to drop by over the weekend.  It's got to beat fast food.
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.
