Re: What is the worst thing you have ever eaten?

Actually..thinking about it..I was invited to dinner in the South of France..the hostess had done her research and found out that we all loved ''chicken giblet stew!''

I looked into it..a neck..a face..chicken claws cramped up as though the bloody thing had been drowned in the stock..

I said ''Thank you'' and grabbed all the potatoes from around the side!!

Believe me, Jem, it was a mistake I never made again!

Re: What is the worst thing you have ever eaten?

Not quite as bad as some of the things mentioned, however at a nearby Japanese restaurant (sushi bar to be exact) one item on the menu is Miso soup which is not only delicious but they refill for free. The first time I tried it though it had cubes of tofu floating around. The server had fortunately stayed nearby to see if I liked the soup, and he laughed at my face when I found a cube of this soft gelatinous 'stuff' in my mouth and did not know what the heck to do with it. He offered me a serviette and told me to spit it out exclaiming that many people felt that way (including him) and assuring me that my refills would be sans tofu. I can honestly say I cannot recall feeling anything quite as revolting in my mouth before or since. Did not even taste of anything just felt disgusting.

I think the worst things I have eaten were fairly ordinary things - just badly cooked. I remember trying (allegedly) real turtle soup - that was pretty disgusting.
Oh lord, baby camel???, olives??? Yuk.

I know I'll get fried here but WHY do people love curry? I can't stand the smell, it used to just emanate from people's clothes, hair, pores back in Toronto when we lived there & had to take public transit! I used to almost gag. It was usually only East Indians, Pakistanis that would have this. I'm not being racist, just stating a fact.

Re: What is the worst thing you have ever eaten?

Daughter no.1 has just returned from what seems to have been a fantastic conference/holiday in Korea. The'highlight ' of the conference was a traditional banquet with dishes such as jellyfish in a spicy sauce, squid with caviar & chilli (which she described as akin to chewing a rubber tyre), but her limit was a dish of SILK WORMS. This was accompanied by music which included 'Jingle bells' and 'land of hope and glory' played on a Korean harp!

Apparently a favourite 'street food' was fried pig's snout! She didn't try any.

Sounds like what they'd use in canned cat & dog food.
