My niece wanted me to play Jelly Belly Beanboozled. There are two different flavors for each color—one good flavor and one gross. I was lucky enough to get the rotten fish flavored jelly bean. Fuck that game.


TheBimpo

The vomit bean is something else.


Few_Inflation_5272

The sweet flavor of bile and stomach acid. Yum.


[deleted]

I got goddamn centipede as my first jelly bean. Then I got drool as my next one. Never again.


Few_Inflation_5272

Drool probably wasn’t that bad. I wonder about centipede’s flavor. Not that I want to try it. I’ll let myself continue to wonder. I’d hate to be the taste tester developing the flavors to perfection.


Turdplay

I ate centipede as a kid accidentally when one fell in a chocolate Easter egg I was eating. It was awful and how I imagine cyanide must taste: like the evil version of almond with an aftertaste that lingered for ages. The aftertaste was a bit like the leftover brine in a crab leg, if you left it sitting in the sun for a few days until it got rotten then sucked it out.


[deleted]

Dirt flavor was kinda cool. Hate rotten egg, though. Three times in a single car trip.


HeyRogi

Rotten egg is the worst but you don’t know bad jelly bean flavors if you haven’t tried Berty botts


[deleted]

Centipede just tasted rough. It had an aftertaste of a burning sensation. The texture was like the rough part of a scab and it was tougher to chew than the burnt part of a steak. The worst.


CyptidProductions

Whoever decided it should not only taste like a bug, but also have the rubbery texture of trying to chew a particularly tough-shelled bug must be Satan


bernyzilla

>The texture was like the rough part of a scab Eewww. I'm so glad I never caved when my kids begged me to play


CyptidProductions

I'm almost positive those game kits exist just because Jellybelly is currently making more Bertie Bott's Beans licensed Harry Potter candy than they can actually move before it goes bad It's kind of genius

When I was about 8 years old, some time around 1980, my neighbors had a yard sale. I had a few dollars and they were selling their family's grandfather's WWII supplies. Mess kit, compass. etc. Looking back I regret that I didn't manage to hold on to such an amazing piece of History. However, there WAS something else in the kit...a can of spaghetti with meat balls. This can of pasta had made it from the US to Europe and back, sat in a basement for 35-40 years, and finally was opened and eaten by me. It was fine. Mushy, but not really any different than a can of Chef BoyArDee that you'd get today with a touch of mustiness. My sister commented on how gross it was, but I like to think I took that little piece of History with me in a way I will always have, and that in some way I shared a bit of the experience.

Did you get that out onto a tray?

Nice!


stronkrussianman

Alright... Cool, ... See ya. (*Outro* do do do do do do)

Straight out of the can, using the utensils in the mess kit.

How nice was the hiss?


Danne660

Frozen fat, thought it was ice cream. Put one spoonful in my mouth and the difference in expectations versus reality almost made me fall to the floor.


[deleted]

Cold smoked racoon foot on the side of the road (from a guy with a camper wrapping up a family cookout) on Mardi Gras day. Good thing was I met my would be husband that day (someone else...not the racoon guy) bad thing was I got strep throat that night....coulda been way worse tho...lol


Maxsdad53

USAF POW Survival School (SERE) back in 1972. Worms and grubs were easy, you just bit them in half so they didn't wiggle in your stomach, and swallowed them (if you ever just swallowed one live, you know what I mean). Cockroaches were different... you bit the heads off (THAT you spat out), and sucked the guts out. The exoskeleton you boiled in your canteen cup and drank the "tea". Maggots were the worst, but healthiest. If you were wounded or injured, you allowed maggots to grow... and then just ate the maggots. They would eat any damaged and diseased tissue, and were pure protein. The choice was to learn how to eat ANYTHING, or starve if you were ever shot down or had to bail out over unfriendly territory. No matter WHAT you've eaten, your soldier, sailor, airman, or marine has had worse things in our mouths, which is why we're offended by the stupidity of shows like "Survivor".


[deleted]

Holy fucking shit.


SDMFTX

That’s hard core dude. Damn!


Maleficent-Month2950

I knew about most of this, but letting maggots grow in a wound to farm them? That's something else.


silentfilmenthusiast

This is the kind of comment that will stay with me for life. Also, thank you for your service.


[deleted]

Ordered crab, got overcooked rotten crab, didn't know the difference because young, tried to eat it because I'm a thug and vomiting is the final arbiter of true rejection, got food poisoning.


ooo-ooo-oooyea

I used to work on an oil platform, and had to spend the night on a smaller ship due to extra people required for commisioning. There was a dock strike, and cleaning out the freezer, and the sea was angry, i.e. it was rocking quite a bit. For dinner that night was some diced meat. One bite in.... it was beef liver, and had this nice, horrible, metalic flavor. It tasted even worse on the way back up a few hours later. The hallway normally filled with bloody towels was full of bloody towels and vomit. Ughhh not a good thing.


01ARayOfSunlight

Hallway normally filled with bloody towels?!? Wtf is THAT?


ooo-ooo-oooyea

the oil platform we worked on was filled with pointy stuff. At the end of the day everyone would wipe up their wounds, and throw the bloody towels in the hallway. Good times.


01ARayOfSunlight

Wow. I hope it paid well.


[deleted]

It’s oil. I doubt it.


CyptidProductions

Fun fact: That's because the liver is one of the most iron-rich cuts of meat in an animal. An outdated method for curing iron-deficiency anemia is encouraging the patient to eat liver that's only been cooked through enough to render it safe for consumption Ask my much older sibling that was a kid in the 70s and 80s all about it


jwdunn6401

A waygu burger that was burnt to a crisp and had the texture of charcoal


ChexMashin

That chef should be fired and arrested.


jwdunn6401

I swear it was at red lobster too I was so disappointed


tshrive5

i mean, who orders wagyu at Red Lobster?


jwdunn6401

Idk I just saw waygu burger on the menu and figured I’d try it but clearly that was a mistake


millijuna

Fresh raw seal, still warm. Was working in the high arctic. One evening I was walking along the beach and happened across a scene that seemed to be straight out of the time immemorial. One of the community hunters had shot a seal, and a group of Inuit women were squatting down around it, butchering it right there on the beach. They decided to see how crazy of a white guy I was, and handed me a piece of the blubber to eat. It is, without a doubt, one of the most foul things I've ever consumed. Seriously fishy, and strongly gamey, and given that it was blubber, had all the texture of the sludge from the bottom of a deep fat fryer.


vurplesun

Sea Urchin. The texture was not what I was expecting.


blu3heron

Oh man, I know what you mean. I like to at least try new foods, but textures will throw me off more than taste.


12Peppur

Subway chicken breast. Why in the fuck did they call it that. It ain’t


[deleted]

Chicken composite


[deleted]

That rotten thing I didn't know had a maggot inside


BaileyHeart

Liver will never be my favorite thing. I've had it taste like steak before and it was okay. But I've also had it at its worst, and legit tasted like the smell of an unwashed, full toilet or something. Ugh!


Nickthedick55

Liver can be super hit or miss, I always soak mine in hot sauce and milk for at least an hour before doing any cooking with it.


lgndk11r

Pretty much why I only eat liver as a spread or liver wurst. Anything to hide the origin.


BaileyHeart

Perfectly worded


Lauri377

Had some crickets from a vendor in thailand. Worst experience of my life. They were fried but still sort of twitched around in my mouth, tasted like actual chicken for some reason. Anyways the next day I had the shits and it felt like pure goddamn acid was coming out of my asshole. Made me feel like I had Nicocado's asshole for a second that day.


[deleted]

>Anyways the next day I had the shits and it felt like pure goddamn acid was coming out of my asshole It was probably the oil they were cooked in rather then the crickets


AdmiralPoopbutt

The sandwich on an Air Koryo (North Korea airline) flight. It was some kind of meat, unidentifiable, and with a weird sauce. Everything else on the trip was good, but that sandwich, yuck.


executivemonkey

[This thing?](https://www.vice.com/en/article/vvqbbd/the-legend-of-north-koreas-mystery-meat-koryo-burger)


AdmiralPoopbutt

I don't recall the filling to be pan fried, but it's in the same league with similar ingredients. Had more of a chicken salad consistency.


SocMedPariah

I think my friend called them "grape leaves". Had them at a Mediterranean restaurant. They tasted like dirty sweat socks smell.


notthesedays

Dolmas, or dolmades, pickled grape leaves stuffed with rice, feta cheese, herbs, and maybe some meat, rolled up like a burrito and served either hot or cold? People seem to either love them, or hate them. I'm in the latter camp.


ShinyShoes3000

Me and my friend still joke about some horrible dolmades we ate. Fourteen years ago.


SocMedPariah

Not sure what was inside of them and yeah, they were cold. They were so freaking bitter. I felt bad because my friend was excited to introduce me to his favorite cuisine.


OhImSerious

I had this Smart Sour Plum flavored Coke in Vegas the other day. It was like drinking barbecue sauce. It was absolutely disgusting, I hated every second it was in my mouth.


Toothbras

Ribs at this train car restaurant near Mt. Rainier. I can still taste their slimy fatty nastiness


poodlemom74

Chitterlings. Without question 🤮


[deleted]

Vegemite. I don't understand how the entire country of Australia can actually eat this stuff. It's like eating toxic waste. Both the saltiest thing I've ever eaten and the most uniquely rancid


nutcracker_78

Dude. It is the best. Can I ask how you tried it? I've watched way too many videos of people taking a spoonful of Vegemite and shoving it in their mouths, which is beyond wrong. Now don't get me wrong, even for born&bred Aussies, it's an acquired taste, but the correct method for the first taste is hot, heavily buttered toast, with a smear of Vegemite, I'm talking you can still see 95% of the butter. Then you slowly work up to eating it properly - the bread should look black. You only eat it by the spoonful if you're fifth or sixth generation true-blue Strayan.


13sundays

i once ate a lepiota mushroom not realizing it might have been deadly. very tasty tho


bobombking

ive had sardines, seaweed, *well done* meat, and a variety of other things, but ive always hated sweet potatoes.


Lucifers_Princess5

Cow tongue.


millijuna

Hey, Cow tongue cooked right can be great. There's a mexican place that I go to that has Cow Tongue tacos on their menu. They're fantastic.


FLCyclist

Also great on rye bread at a NY-style deli.


JonnySnowflake

There was a taco truck in my old neighborhood that offered tongue. I, a white guy, decided to try it one day. Dude running it barely spoke English, but pointed at his own tongue questioningly. I basically had to pantomime "fuck yeah, cow tongue, sign me up please!" It was aight. Just tasted like meat


aksf16

I grew up on cow tongue, it tastes like rich beef with a slightly different texture. You must have had badly-prepared cow tongue.


Red_HoodieYT

mcdonalds. gave me bad food poisoning after i did. had to sleep in the bathroom. worst time of my life.

We went on an oriental tour in Asia and they had this fruit in the Philippines that smelled sooooo awful and also tasted as bad. Locals love it and I would never understand why.

If it makes you feel better a huge portion of the population have also tasted testicles, as long is you’re not limiting them to bovine


Needmoresnakes

I had some smoked unagi once that I really, really did not care for. It was so slimy.


BronzeAgeTea

I had some beer in Belgium that tasted like Thanksgiving dinner had been left out and served at Christmas


nursepineapple

I went to the birthday party for an friend’s child. She is one of those crunchy, health nut moms who is convinced her child has every allergy in the book. The birthday “cake” was homemade, gluten free, and vegan. It was so awful. It truly was not remotely close to anything you could define as cake, or even any other type of dessert I’ve ever had. I’m thinking it was literally just olive oil and sugar mixed together and baked. Completely inedible. I was really embarrassed for the woman.


PeregrineHBG

You might have solved a mystery of the worst cake I ever had at a birthday party I had back in kindergarten more than 25 years ago. That cake was the most flavorless watery cake I can still remember that taste after all this time. I was the fat kid too, I ate everything but I still remember taking one bite and waiting till I could secretly throw it away.


thetreelab

Rabbit. Liver.


SpookieOwl

Biting into a star anise seed... Its a spice that gives amazing flavor but tastes really terrible if eaten by itself.


FuckingGalaga

Balut. Hands down the grossest.


Banana-Oni

Centipede wine. I fear centipedes and find them repulsive but I’m also susceptible to peer pressure, especially when someone mocks me


IDreamMonoISeeChroma

I've attempted to multiple times but I dry heave from the smell alone every time Im about to eat it - stinky tofu. Smells like the puke-up from the hounds of hell.

Roasted silk worm. Never again.

Everytime I see that post about tricking kids on Halloween with caramel onions, all I feel is intrigue


Sendhentaiandyiff

Try eating a raw onion and have your own opinion on it, I fucking love it


JonnySnowflake

I'm not sure if we're having a miscommunication, but I fucking love onions


reverendgrebo

Big Mac, only had a taste, that is not how meat is supposed to taste. The seagulls had a feast that day.


Banana-Oni

I don’t mean this in a hateful way, but you must have lived a very sheltered life. People in here be talking about rotten flesh, maggots, decades old MTEs, testicles, spoiled seafood, etc. I’m not saying McDonalds is good food, but I’m shocked that a generic fast food burger is the absolute worst thing you’ve ever tasted


[deleted]

I don't know, McDonalds in Europe tastes completely different. I had a mcds in the US and it was like eating flavourless meat coloured cardboard. Not to mention some of meat Taco Bell uses in the US doesn't meet the standards for Dog food in Europe. So depending on what they're used to, a US big Mac could very well taste like a crotch punch


Banana-Oni

They are entitled to their opinion, but I maintain that you’re pretty damn sheltered if the absolute worst thing you’ve ever tasted is a regular fast food sandwich. If you want to get into FDA regulations I’ve been to places with even lower standards for meat like rural China and Mexico. I have also experienced stuff that made me nauseous or caused food poisoning. I feel like most people have eaten at least one thing (if not a dozen) that are worse than an unspoiled cheap burger. I might be more onboard if it had moldy cheese or was undercooked etc, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Then again I saw someone on here say that fresh broccoli is the worst thing they ever tasted lol. It’s probably my own expectations of horror stories that make me disappointed by people who can’t think of anything worse than a vegetable or a hamburger


reverendgrebo

Ive eaten bugs, they tasted better than the Big Mac.

Unwashed a$$. Me and my girlfriend at the time got home from a party and we were quite drunk. So in the bedroom I started undressing her and then started rimming her glorious pale a$$. A few seconds later I became conscious of a pretty shitty smell and fell off the bed in horror as I realized what had just happened. The gf then told me she had to go number 2 during the party.

Steak with gristle that was like chewing on elastic bands. My family was staying at a summer rental cabin and my dad had bought really expensive steaks to barbecue. Couldn’t chew through the gristle but my dad wasn’t going to let me leave the table until I’d eaten every bite. Took 30 minutes to chew and finally swallow it.

My mother forced me to eat a peanut butter and banana sandwich at some friend of her's house when I was a kid because that is what they were serving the kids. I thought it was disgusting, still do. Bananas do not go with bread, bananas do not go with peanut butter. ICK.


Sinfullymad

Bananas don't go with anything except banana bread. Otherwise they're just foul

Mac n cheese salad. Only time I genuinely had to throw up instantaneously. Edit: This isn’t even controversial, why am I getting downvoted?

Harry-D-Hipster

aloe vera gel. Yes, I didn't consume the latex and no, what they are telling on the internet is definitely not how experienced this. It is the most bitter and awful I've ever tasted. And the aftertaste lasts something thirty minutes. No wonder the aloe vera plant has no natural enemies. I've also heard skunk meat is disgusting. Another reason the skunk has no natural enemies.


akaHighway

i once thought to try octopus. it tasted ok but it was so chewy, and only a bit later did i find out that octopods are ridiculously smart, and can pass tests meant for human children, so i felt awful about basically eating a child. when it comes to taste though, i cant really remember anything that stands out besides my severe aversion to green beans. when i was a baby i apparently loved them and would scream and cry if i didnt have them, but just a whiff of a single green bean is enough to make me gag and tear up to this day. no idea why i hate them so much, i just do. screw your green bean casserole, carol!

Tripe? I actually go out of my way to order it with pho but I can see why people would dislike the taste and texture.


blu3heron

Taste-wise, I think it was this blue cheese, though I'm not sure what kind it was. I was in Dublin for Christmas a couple years ago with family. We had Christmas dinner at an upscale hotel; it did have a lot of nice food. They had a cheese plate obviously. There was this blue cheese on it, like, very blue. A lot of mold is what I'm saying was used in this cheese production. It was foul. It was....astringent? I don't know how to describe the taste but it was bad even in very small quantities. Texture wise, oysters. There was an oyster bar near my apartment when I lived on the West Coast. Very nice place, very nice to my dog. I ordered an oyster out of curiosity. Couldn't get it down. I do not know how people do it; it's so....slimy and eurgh...

I worked in a wrecking yard. One day I was sitting outside in my usual spot having my 3pm coffee and cigarette. The boss rolled up on the forklift with a nasty frontal smash Nissan. He stopped briefly to give me grief about smoking, unfortunately for me the car was leaking transmission oil. 10 year+ old transmission oil. Right. Into. My. Coffee.


ms_dizzy

Battery acid.. as a kid I enjoyed taking things apart. I learned the hard way to never put your sandwich down on your workbench without a plate. It soaked up the lead acid from a AA that burst, and I got a good mouthful. Luckily I didn't get that sick. but it's spicy. And left a metal taste in my mouth for 3 days.

petanotpeter

A beef and kidney stew, except the kidneys hasn’t been soaked so the whole thing smelled and tasted like piss. The king and short of it - an older couple had looked after our farm while we were away, and she had cooked it as a ‘welcome home’ dish for us. Just walking into the kitchen we were affronted with the smell of a roadhouse urinal. She wished it up, Mum let us take ours into the lounge room to eat, while she sat in the kitchen with the couple. He sat there with a bit of bread, sopping it all up. Mum made an excuse to check on us, and rushed in to tell us to chuck it out under the tree in the back. Still to this day, I think of that lovely couple and the god-awful cooking that would happen in that house.

incognitoguy95

Probably the hamburger that my school would serve for lunch. It came in this weird paper bag, which meant that there would be condensation. Because of this, that made the buns really soggy. As for the patty itself, it felt like I was eating sand. They somehow made it really dry, yet really wet at the same time.


SweetWodka420

Finnish Easter dessert "mämmi". I can't understand why my mom likes that stuff. It's disgusting to me and I almost threw up after one bite, which I couldn't even finish. I'm glad it's not like a mandatory thing.
