Surströmming with mämmi

Properly prepared or improperly prepared?

I had a chicken sandwich once that was still pink in the middle... Disgusting!

Tête de veau and andouillettes.

I'll try everything once but the first is just jelly with cartilage, reminding you it used to be a face.

The second is offal sausage that smells like the intestines weren't washed out properly.

Mashed potatoes from KFC. It just tastes like an empty sadness.

Minke whale. I've had hákarl and I prefer that over minke whale.

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.

Witloof, its this variant of cabbage that is long thin and completely white. And it has one of the most pungent bitter tastes ive ever had the misfortune to discover. The taste is hard to describe, but it's similar to bee spit,also known as honey, except replace all the love and care that the bees spat with, with pure malice and wasp hatred. It is incredibly sweet, ungodly bitter and has after cooking the texture of overcooked pasta

Cocolate pudding in a hotel in reims france.

I dont know what it was but it wasnt chocolate!

I don't know about THE worst, but every single thing I ate while at Disney land was pretty fucking bad. I had some barbeque skewers with my dad that were extremely bland, dry, and flavourless. I also had some sort of pink sugary drink that tasted kind of weird. My brother said his hotel burger had a really bad musk to it

Hard to say. I tend to opt for safe things most of the time. Twice as a child I was conned into taking a spam fritter under the belief it was fish. I like battered fish. It was not fish. I do not like spam.

Texture-wise, I cannot abide kidney. Used to love steak and kidney pies but something changed when my adult teeth came in.

Thirdly, I still have flashbacks to a serving of whitebait I ordered out of curiosity in a restaurant one time. They didn't taste terrible that I remember. Just... whole little fish cooked and to be eaten whole. Never again.

And then there was the case of the Kit-Kat that I was eating blind, piece by piece from my coat pocket, and one of the pieces was hard and unpleasant. I am still not sure there wasn't something else in my pocket that I grabbed and ate by mistake, but that's pretty up there.

Cilantro/coentro/coriander

I was warned off natto.

It's funny, I can think of the worst drink (I dislike Negroni to the point I don't even understand how people like it, so intensely sweet and bitter and nothing else)

and the worst perfume (Im Nebbel, smelled like burning rubber) but food, all I can think of is the time my ex made a spaghetti with a sauce of yellow tomatoes that looked exactly like vomit, and when I was trying to eat it, commented that he thought it was "a little loose" and I just lost it, could not eat it, though it didn't taste awful.

Worst restaurant food was a Mexican place in San Antonio, got a chicken mole and the mole was made with sweetened chocolate chips; an enchilada with American cheese slice was another highlight of that meal, it was comically bad.

Nothing tops the Jolly Rancher story.

Steve and his girlfriend Samantha went off to college in August. She went to Florida State, he went to Penn. So, she decides to fly to PA to visit him. He was really happy to see her so he decided to give her some oral action.

He had done this numerous times before and he always enjoyed doing it...but for some reason, this time, she smelled really horrible, and she tasted even worse. He didn't want to offend her though because he hadn't seen her in months...so he put a Jolly Rancher in his mouth to cover it up, even though it didn't do much to help.

In the course of eating her out, he accidentally pushed the candy inside of her... and stuck a finger in to grab it out. He took it out, and put it back into his mouth and bit it. Only...it wasn't the Jolly Rancher.

It was a nodule of gonorrhea.

As in, the blister-like structure that gonorrhea makes filled with diseased pus was the size of a fucking Jolly Rancher and the poor guy BIT it. I guess it was really dark in the room. He freaked out and started vomiting all over the place when it exploded in his mouth...

He demanded to know what was going on, turns out she had cheated on him at a club like, the first week of college, and fucked some random guy and the stupid bitch had no clue what was wrong with her. She noticed a strange smell though.

So now, Steve is freaking out that he now has gonorrhea of the mouth and God knows what else.

Bitter gourd curry. Was so so so bitter. I'll bet it tastes different to different folks.

Reminds me of a migraine medicine. I have to eat candy for a few hours after taking that.

Lentil soup. One kid in the entire school ate it.

A Pizza. It was in Milan. Directly in front of the cathedral. It tasted like a frozen pizza, and I was utterly disappointed.

Boiled beef tongue, no seasoning. Taste/texture as you'd imagine.
