A Bakewell Tart and i found a cigarette inside only knew this after i took a bite :o

err thats disgusting i would have thrown up. Worst thing ive eaten is sweetcorn its disgusting.

Ugh a banana, most definitely.

Though the sandwich at a posh Sheffield eatery which contained broken glass comes a close second!

Snails on me hols.

Only did it for a bet :shocked:

mashed up pumkin - which i ate in france
SPROUTS - evil evil evil :mad:

Crocodile fat.
It was a Crocodile stew and the lumps of meat were fine but I didn't realise that one lump of "meat" was really just fat. I can still taste it (3 years later!). [I'll have to go and brush my teeth again now...].

Sea snails in France come a distant second. The land snails are fine but the sea snails - never again.

What about good stuff to eat? (Veggies - stop reading)
Kangaroo
Reindeer (surprisingly not at all like Chatsworth deer Venison)
Rabbit
Good ham (not the usual sweaty plastic supermarket stuff)
Elderflower cordial
Kelham Island bitter
Chocolate with 70%+ chocolate solids - Sainsbury/Tesco sell Lindt 70% (and 85% but that's a bit extreme).
Sheppy's Cider
Tesco's finest mild crumbly Lancashire cheese (not the harder variant).
Ostrich
Fresh warm home made bread
Lymeswold - whatever happened to that?

Keep trying, they are an acquired taste. Remove any dodgy outer leaves. Stab the hard bases so they cook more evenly. Don't overcook them (steam for 8-10 minutes). Serve them with butter.
I didn't like beer the first few times, I just drank if from peer pressure but look at me now...

I used to tell my brat that if he didn't behave then next time we went to MacDonalds I'd not get his usual "Happy meal" but an "Unhappy meal" which comprised a sprout-burger, and a drink of sprout juice and a plastic toy "Mr Sprouty".

Rabbit - mother tried to convince me it was chicken, but I knew it wasnt...:sad:

Cheers for that. I'm still laughing. Brilliant.

:loopy:

I had bull from the bull fight (which I did'nt attend) and I had 'kid' (baby goat, not someone's child) which tasted like lamb :twisted:

Tripe

My Dad used to have it when I was a kid, not for me I am afraid.

Chitterlings and Bag - Whats that all about?

Oysters - ordered them by accident once and could barely get two down. Sort of like you'd imagine cold phlegm to be - uuuuggghhh :)

Oysters are awesome steamed or fried with a dash of hot sauce on a cracker. Lots of cold beer too to wash it down. (lager to you)

Can't stand smoked salmon. I feel like Tom Hanks on his movie "Big" where he scrapes the caviar off his tongue.

Chitterlings are pigs intestine, yum yum :D
Bag is the stomach I think.

Amazingly I do know someone who still eats this stuff.
Apparantly it slides down the throat a treat.
I know me old Grand Papa used look forward to his tripe an' onions.
I'll ask.

When I was at Sheffield Uni, when buying sandwiches in the Union there was always an option of Dripping Crusts for about 30p.

No matter *how* skint I was, I never tried it...

Dunno if they still sell those there now, but I kinda wish I'd given it a go once, just to see...

Olives - grim :x

My BFs mum sent him a food parcel from Japan, and he made me try salted rice porridge with a pickled plum...

UUUURGUHERRRGHH!!

My little brother got a small tin of sour sweets from a shop the other day and they are the most disgusting things I've ever tasted.

I can normally stand sour winegums and stuff like that but these wer way beyond that and made me retch after just 45 seconds.

They come in a little yellow plastic tube, can't remember what they are called but they have to be tasted!

Once went to the Victorian classroom with school, and we had to take dripping sandwiches... eeurrgghh! I couldn't even look at the stuff now. Even worse was the bag I took them in... but that's another story...

I'll eat almost anything but I can't stand peanut butter!!

Don't like nuts generally but peanuts are scum. I apologise if this statement offends any of the PC Brigade - I openly admit that I am a peanutist. Frankly they make me sick and they should all be sent back to where they came from! Even the smell makes me gag.

I don't know if drink counts but once I was in a pub and picked up the wrong bottle of beer. I proceded to swig the dregs of someones Gold Lable (barley wine) in which fags had been put out!!!!! Scuse me... of to be sick.:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Awwww I love peanut butter. Friendly's (american ice cream/burger chain) do a fantastic Reeses peanut butter cup cyclone (like a mcflurry). OMG... the best thing to eat on the WORLD!

You're making me gag again DB!:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Zamo, are you sure that's not peanophobe? I'm sure phanthyrythjryn thing will correct me.

Worse thing I've eaten? Potato salad when I was about 8. We were at some 'nice' friends of my parents for lunch, some friends! feeding us cold sick and making out it was real food, and my mother, being from Yorkshire, considered it bad manners to leave anything on the plate. Grownups were allowed to help themselves form the food on offer but was I? No, the 'nice' lady thought I might like a bit of everything, not the cold sick, please not the cold sick, so proceeded to pile everything on my plate, obviously didn't keep pigs 'cos they're usually the poor bu**ers who get the c**p that humans won't eat, so I'm sat there having finished everything but the cs and my mother turns to me and says, be a dear and clear your plate, but mum it's SICK, don't argue, it's rude to leave things, but if I eat that there'll be no room for the cake, EAT IT, ok.

Don't start me on trifle with those awful silver balls that leach into the runny cream (if you're lucky, it's usually angel delight, uurgh) and make it look, well like something that's had silver leached into it, and then you get past that to the not quite yellow custard and down into the soggy sponge, which has been designed to absorb as much liquid as possible and turn it into soggy rusky pap, eventually you get to the fruit and it's TINNED fruit, not to mention the sherry which was given to the great grand parents of the person who inflicted this awful poo on the world by a friend who'd just returned from the Boer War and that's before South Africa could turn out decent wine.

Can I have 2 worst things I ever eaten?

Anyone ever had the pleasure of boiled udder?

Just been informed by my father that it was quite a treat during the war years for a growing lad. :shocked:

It made a refreshing change from bread and lard. :bigsmile:

Eww ewww ewww for Zamo's barley wine with fag ends :(

When I worked in a pub someone drank a shot of Bailey's then puked it back out right in the glass. Someone else later drank it... :shocked:

Eeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyooooooooooowwwwwwww

lol. I have one thats sort of the same. Couple of years ago me and my mate went out to the pub. The pub was rammed but we found a table, the only thing missing was the ashtray! We couldnt see any spares so we used the half full glass of coke on the table (yes that is gross too, I KNOW :( ) We were there for about 3 hours drinking and smoking. Just as was time to leave we grab our drinks to down them. I picked up mine and opened wide! After about 3 seconds I distinguished the taste of fag butts and ash and lots of other nasties. I quickly spat it bac out into the glass and gagged. Fortunately I wasnt sick, but maybe it would have been better to taste that then the ashtray I was tasting then :( Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

I'm a careful careful girl now :D

Ive had these sweets too. My mum was nipping to the shop and asked if i wanted anything and i fancied some sour sweets like those fizzy belts or something. She brought me a can of those saying the man in the shop recommended them and they are unbelievably sour! Theres a thing on the back saying 15 secs = wimp 30 secs = OK etc. My first taste lasted about 3 seconds and i had to spit it out and i made everyone else try one and they all did the same. I stuck with them though and had a few more and eventually could eat one without spitting it out at all. My stomach didnt like me doing this at all though.

the worst thing i have ever tried is quayles eggs ( if thats how u spell it )


they smelt like sweaty socks and tasted like off milk..



avoid them eggs if possible they are well discusting..

Sounds like they were "off"!!

I've eaten them many a time and find them just like little hens eggs. Great when boiled and then added to noodles or a stir-fry

You were stitched up Leanah, Quails eggs should taste very similair to Hens eggs.

Frogs Legs... man those things are RANK!

sushi...


god its so minging raw..

The word "sushi" actually refers to vinegared rice, and you can have sushi without eating raw fish.



And anyway, it tastes great!

Quails eggs are lovely but I can never manage a whole one....

I've never understood how anyone could eat birds nest soup tho...it's full of spit! If you see it on a supermarket shelf run screaming!

Er...also never post on the forum while you're cooking, I've just burnt another pan!
Worst thing I ever ate? My cooking.....

Snails at a french resteraunt recomended by the rep that was taking us out.

I had some kumquats today - they were fairly vile.

Sashimi is the raw fish not Sushi. Sushi is the glutinous rice rapped in a vine leaf.

Macdonalds:gag:

Some Bombay Duck I once had in Preston. I was copiously ill afterwards. :gag: Other nasty things I have eaten - off milk, bio-yoghurt, cloves, horse food, blackcurrant crisps, celery, a daffodil bulb, lotus root. Only the horse food was intentional, and that was bland rather than vile. The most vile meal I ever had was at the Charnwood and consisted of cold overcooked pasta which was stuck together in a lump and had to be cut up with a steak knife before eating, served with a cold meat sauce which was nice but in fact was stew and not sauce, and on the side was some cold, greasy, soggy garlic bread which tooka lot of heavy chewing to eat. :(

fishermans friends are pretty minging

Worst thing you have eaten (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=3604&highlight=worst+thing) :D guess the search engine is broken again?

Had to eat humble pie many years ago.
Only the once mind, made sure of that.

I've never tried it, because im not that stupid, but I've seen someone try to eat a tea bag once! He had to run off and throw up! The tea inside is freeze dried so its impossible to eat as your mouth ends up as dry as ghandi's sandles and you cant swallow!

A funny trick is to bet a drunk person a £10 they can't eat one! :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

School dinners back in the 60's - especially liver that was as tough as old boots and stank the place out for a couple of hours.

My brother used to fancy himself as a trencherman and used to do eating challenges. He reckons it's almost impossible to eat more then 3 cream crackers inside one minute without a drink. He used to do challenges on how many raw eggs he could eat. I might try the tea bag thing on him...

We used to have something called the 'disgusting sandwich competition' when we were kids. The rules were that you had to make each other a buttie and you had to eat every mouthful of what was served up to you. You were only allowed to put into the buttie what was in the kitchen (i.e. nothing like toenail clippings). So you could get combinations like jam, cheese, rice krispies and curry sauce. To be honest, the more vile the combination, the more tatseless the buttie was and you didn't notice what you were actually eating.

Salad cream

Mayo I can cope with.

But Salad Cream :gag: the devils own seminal fluid :gag: :gag:

And for those who DON'T like to eat at McDonalds... (http://www.nothingtodo.co.uk/view.php?id=343) :gag:

A dog food sandwich.


All i wanted was some delish stewed steak (ok, its not that amazing) and that was when my mate got his revenge for giving him a full bottle of calfig in one night.

It just tasted of nothing actually... If it had tasted the least bit meaty id probably have eaten the whole can. I didnt really care that it looked exactly like dog food. I was starved!

Sea cucumber is vile and I once just picked something off a menu in a sushi restaurant (a bit of cavalier showing off) and what arrived was a bowl of just tentacles, big pink rubbery ones with suckers, they tasted ok but you had to eat with your eyes shut.

I have posted this before but when I was younger there were no convenience shops, or at least not many, and directly after the war people ate whatever they could get hold of. Also being a southern softie I adore Jellied Eels.

Back to the normal food that was on the everyday table.

Pigs trotters, tripe, lung, lights, brain, sweetbreads to name a few.

Rabbit, i loved it, but it is the smell of my mother skinning it that stays with me.

The foulest things I have ever tasted are:

Egg
Sprouts
Broad beans
An unnamed sea food dish which was consumed while drunk and exited my body a damned sight quicker than it entered.

I saw tripe for sale in the co-op in Hillsborough the other day :gag: :gag: :gag:

A partly incubated egg, only found out when I bit into it.

Still gag just recalling the event.

Sea slug, I was being polite and thought that it was some kind of seaweed. 20 years ago and still the thought makes me heave.

Sheeps eye, its ok upuntil you bite it and it pops and liquid splurges out...

I thought caviar was pretty horrible too, like little balls of salty snot.

My partner once ate the daffodils on the bar of the pub.

Look away all you vegetarians

And we once went across to St Marlo from Jersey.

The local dish for which everyone was queueing was Tete-de-Veux and I saw these dishes going past with what looked like mayonaisse piped on.
When we came to take our seats and order I realised that the mayonaisse was the brains of the calf and there it was in all it's glory, half a tongue, half the brains and still had bristles on it's cheek.

I had spagetti bolognase !!

Ken had Tete-de Veux.

hazel

My aunty once has a lump of cow fur in a tin of corned beef, and my nan got a Bounty with maggots in it!!

seekh kebab AKA dogs nob:gag:

not eaten but with stir fry, soya sauce!
