Actual shit. I was rimming my boyfriend and he had thought he cleaned enough, he was wrong. I immediately threw up washed my mouth out and brushed my teeth. Disgusting, in case I needed to say it.
As a kid I took a swig off my Mom’s Coca Cola. She had been using the can as an ash tray. Puked for five mins and can recall that taste in a second as an adult.
I’ve had surströmming exactly once and intend to keep it that way.
A Zataran’s Cajun chicken Alfredo freezer meal…that had been in the un-freezable, non-refrigerated cabinet two weeks.
My wife…gods bless her, was trying to feed me dinner…and found that in the cabinet… after having put it there during our last grocery stock up, not realizing it required freezing. In her defense, it was a grocery order and the item was not something we ordered, so she didn’t know the particulars of it, and it wasn’t cold upon arrival.
After microwaving, she brings me the plate and a fork and I notice the smell is…unique, but me being hungry and not overly picky though “meh…Cajun seasoning…I guess” so i stir the sauce into the noodles and then lick the fork, as one does, preparing to consume.
The weirdest part, is it was fucking sour. Not sour like spoiled, sour like a million warheads sour. I stopped… looked at the stuff, looked at my wife and shuddered. “This is weird…why is it sour?” I said…still not dawning on me that my wife would attempt to poison me so obviously. She disappears and I sit there, with the offending offering on the table in front of me. “Am I brave enough to eat this? I don’t like wasting food…” goes through my head at about the same time as my wife, pale faced and trembling, rushes in and grabs it hollering “don’t eat that! It was supposed to be frozen!”
Fresh ginger.
Ugh. Once when I was a kid I got the idea in my head to stick my face in between the couch cushoins and inhale hard. I still can kinda see the cursed salad I was spitting out for a while.
I didn’t put it there but when I was in college sharing an apartment with my brother and his wife they got a dog and when they got it home the instant it got through the door it beelined for my lap and slipped it’s tongue ALL the way along the roof of my mouth. Decades ago and I can still feel it.
I’ve eaten ass
Any special prep?
Ideally it’s clean. When im in the moment though I’m not asking about it
Nope. Just toss the salad
Sounds dangerous.
I prefer grape jelly.
Of things that were intended to be eaten, my friend in Amsterdam had some super salty black licorice. Don’t want to yuck his yum, but that shit wasn’t fit for human consumption.
Well, there was natō, which is just slimy fermented soybeans. Had a taste like rotten sick and a texture like milky mucus covering half-mushed beans.
Not a fan of sea urchin either.
Also eaten a few expired food items that made me very wary of repeats, and usually put me off the food in question for at least a year. Rotten fruit cup that tasted like acetone, slimy off ham, chunky lemon milk.
Last, I once tried to cook a ham hock in beans. Recipe came out tasting like what I imagine stewed human flesh would taste like. Just wrong. Couldnt say exactly why, but nothing about the smell or taste told me it was edible. It was the most visceral “you’re-eating-a-dead-thing” feeling i’ve ever gotten.
IIRC even Japanese people don’t like natto, for the most part. It’s just reputed to be super healthy over there.
Wrong. Many Japanese people love it. Not all, of course.
Probably in a similar category as lutefisk in Norway. I like it, but I realize it’s an acquired taste.
Natto isn’t that bad there’s so many worse dishes
with onion and soy sauce and rice and kimchi
I sip Malört and enjoy its nuanced flavor notes. Durian tastes like paradise. Natto, however, broke me.
Friend gifted me some of this, and it’s truly awful.

Probably expensive Chinese baijiu the traditional drink of the North. I’ll be toasting with it soon. Tastes like lighter fluid smells, 42% by volume.
That sounds manageable. The first time a friend and I played Minecraft, he took a shot of Everclear. I was never brave enough to try that, but I was drinking it mixed 50/50 with Monster.
Everclear is, incidentally, 190 proof. I don’t drink it anymore, but my wife has used it as cleaning fluid.
Yeah I once had a guy from Asian enthusiastically give me two bottles of 151 and then wanted to crack them open and finish them not knowing what he got. That is the drunkest I’ve been in a restaurant I think.
What is this, wxactly? Just looks like some kind of liquor
This could actually be named wxactly
It certainly is. Baiju. It tastes like some kind of harsh chemical cleaner. Goes down similarly.
At least it’s sterile (I imagine)
A raw, whole crab (about the size of a golf ball). Was crunchy in a very nasty way, full of slimy nasty stuff. Horrible!
One time when I was a kid, my friend and I decided to take random stuff from the pantry and just mix it all together into one drink. That was genuinely heinous.
Accidentally half ate a catepillar once.
It crawled into the bag of snacking cheerios on a camping trip.
… still feed bad about accidentally killing that little guy.
I guess also maybe you could count earning my redwings, though it wasn’t like I was ingesting it, and frankly, I didn’t even find it disgusting at all, but it seems most people are disgusted by this.
I’ve done a good bit of martial arts, am quite used to the taste of my own blood in my mouth… hers was basically just a slightly different flavor of blood.
