Your Worst Food Experience?

**Azalea** · 07-19-2012, 08:18 PM

Mine was the Durian. I tried it last weekend, and even though I knew what to expect, the taste was still dissapointing in every way. I only took a very little bite but that was enough to gross me out. How can people enjoy this fruit? I mean, it tastes like how I imagine shit to taste like.

So anyway, tell me about your worst food experience ever.

Not a food experience. In the airport of Rhodes, Greece I ordered a Black Coffee. Seriously, it was so disgusting that drinking urine would gross me out less. Yuk! I wisely left it behind.

My friend recently returned from India and he loved Durian. He described it to me and it sounded gross, but he was so proud how he LOVES the taste.

My worst experience was when I ordered a taco in Mexico and it had beef brain in it... no one believed me, so I did not eat it after the first bite. My friend then ate my leftovers and he (lol) was so grossed out, he said there was definitely brains in it. I think eating brain and tongue is disgusting.

My worst food is chickpea(??)
I tried to eat this soup 2 times, each time I throw up.

Any shellfish really - gross.

I got food poisoning from a "Jack in the Box" in America

Was in a restaurant and we were tasting some exotic food.
The worst was a chicken flan(?) from thailand, just strange and gross

There are a lot of disgusting experiences here. The most recent disappointing food experience I had was when I was going to have some chips with cheese to discover that the cheese was moldy.

The only one that really jumps to mind is when I was about 21, my boyfriend invited me over for dinner at his parents' place. It was the first time we were going to meet and he informed me that his mom had prepared a special dinner for me.

I was very happy when something which resembled a schnitzel was presented to me. I cut off a big chunk and once it hit my tongue realised that it was liver. I couldn't spit it out and I couldn't bring myself to swallow the damned thing. I reached for a glass of water to wash it down but the stomach rebelled and I threw up at the table between myself and his sister onto the floor.

I was never invited for dinner again. And the relationship soured soon afterwards too. I suppose one should never insult a man's mother's cooking.

I don't get families that cook 'controversial' food like organ meat for geusts they are going to meet for the first time. Just make some chicken or something.
