Worst food/meal you ever ate

    I got a curry tray on the way home from work one time.
    Got home and started to tuck in.
    Didn't look at what I was eating(well it was just curry and chips) so was a couple of forkfuls in when I looked at the next forkful.
    On it was half an earwig.
    Now this in itself was disgusting enough until I realised that it was HALF an earwig.
    Yup you can guess where the other half had gone:eek:

    A sample of a burger in Tesco, it was so bad that I needed to find an empty aisle and spit it out :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 882 ✭✭✭ygolometsipe


    I re-heated a doner kebab 2 days after I almost finished it.
    That's not the worst part tho... I ate it for breakfast at 9am.
    Jesus only died once :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,541 ✭✭✭Smidge


    Another example was a friend of mine got one of those boil in the bag meals years ago. Cooked it, dished it out onto the plate and was picking through it when they found a very long pube in it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 911 ✭✭✭Bassfish


    I went into one of those Asian all you can eat for €6.50 places on Moore st. (I'm not proud of it). I got some of what was labelled beef curry, I bit into what I thought was beef, turns out it was a Liver Curry. I spat it back onto the plate and left.
    I ordered an 'andouillette' sausage in Paris, took one bite and it tastes like licking a hobo's crack. I'm now considering going veggie!

    Ohh I ate a few al right, takes a few hours before I get the rumble.

    Honestly when i get the urge, iv to brace myself against the wall and grit my theeth..... Then I let out an almighty fart that sounds like thunder, pebble dash the bowl and the flow sounds like I'm choking a duck.
    After the first break through its okay, just sit for another 20mins (Thank God for Wifi).


    My ring feels like iv been bummed by king Kong afterwards though :(

    A lasagne in Tenerife -The meat was grey. Additionally, there were persistent flies everywhere, swarming around our food while we tried to eat. It was nasty.

    Tenerife is nasty.

    The Angus Steakhouses in London - lowest grade meat I've ever eaten. Got lamb kebab skewers, and it was like rubber. Sent it back & got a burger, and it was inferior to a microwave burger, as far as meat quality goes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 365 ✭✭shofukan


    Saurkraut juice.
    Vomit inducing as it turns out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,238 ✭✭✭humbert


    Beondegi or live octopus. Had a couple of drinks(literally one or two) before the octopus otherwise I don't think I'd have managed to chew it.

    Funny you should mention this!
    It wasn't the big one on Oxford Street by any chance?
    Reason for asking is that I ate in there a number of years ago while on a weekend away, well actually there wasn't much eating done as the food was hideous.
    Anyway, got home on the Monday and on the Tuesday night the was a programme on UTV one of those "Restaurants From Hell" type things. The Angus on Oxford st was on it and by god I was a sick as a pig after what I saw:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,585 ✭✭✭lynski


    had a meal in a hotel once that came with the weekend package.
    got salmon and brown bread starter - there was mould on the bread sent it back for the soup.
    the meal was uniformly soft and it was roast beef and veg, spuds, etc - we then noticed that the average age of the rest of room was 67.5 so the food was aimed at causing them as little problems as possible.
    we left, but only after i had the point out the mould on the bread being served the the people at the next table.
    only it was a 'free' or inclusive meal i would have not paid for it.
    in fairness to the hotel when they read the customer feedback form they sent us a letter and a meal voucher to return. we didn't

    I got a paella in Barcelona thinking it was the right place to try it
    but it was the worst meal I ever had, nasty, greasy, with little hard bits in it as small as baby teeth....yuck

    Sakuma wiki. All the texture and aroma of grass, with none of that pesky flavour.

    I heard that's good for you if you have stomach problems. Don't know if its true.

    The worst thing I've eaten was random "meat" from a street vendor in Thailand

    Did you eat the meat from the stall or from the vendor?:p

    I had quite a lot of food from the street vendors in Thailand and never got sick from it,loved it actually.
    The only food that made me ill over there was when we ate in a Dutch restaurant:confused:
    Sick as a parrot from that one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,075 ✭✭✭Wattle


    A certain Chinese takeaway in Rathfarnham village poisoned me a few years back. I think it was Lemon Chicken with rice that I got. They obviously weren't storing the rice properly. I was as sick as a pig an hour later.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,199 ✭✭✭Shryke


    I have a gluten intolerance. Ate half a pizza earlier anyway and my gut was killing me. That happens sometimes, especially on a night out. Inebriation doesn't lend well to watching your intake.
    Otherwise I've had most cheap ass microwavable things at one stage during my poor student life. Including Chicken in curry sauce out of a tin that I found in Tesco. I was more disgusted with myself that I wasn't disgusted by it.

    Very same thing happened me. I was sharing a curry with my friend, we don't know who ate the missing half :(

    Years ago in a small village in the south of France I chanced upon a restaurant. My French was crap but I went for the dish of the day. It was tasteless apart from the sauce it was in. It turned out to be sheeps brain - I was not impressed.

    got chicken burger in Rick's once - absolutely disgusting. Chicken was a brick, withered lettuce and mayo tasted rank. The chips were like cardboard aswell.

    Only went back two more times:pac:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,812 ✭✭✭✭sbsquarepants


    Got this pie in morroco, can't remember what it was called but it was pidgeon and vegetables in pastry, it's their national dish i think - it was absolutely horrible! Must have been gone off or something cos i could only ate about 10% of it and i was puking for 2 days after! :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,910 ✭✭✭OneArt


    I bought what I thought was a packet of frozen schnitzels (mmm...) turned out it was one measly schnitzel with frozen mashed potato, carrots and peas in it. Cooked it anyway... The vegetables were mank and the schnitzel had a weird aftertaste.

    I'm going to read my food before I buy it now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,528 ✭✭✭foxyboxer


    Marmite on toast.

    Went out for a fancy meal one night in Germany, picked the only veggie option on the menu; it sounded really fancy and was really looking forward to it. I almost cried when the brought it out as it was two hash browns on a plate with a tiny bit of salad..

    I enjoy all that.
    If I knew a food that could do that to me without making me feel nauseous, I'd eat it now again for a special bowels treat.

    Pistasicio ice cream in portugal.

    Picture of the food on the menu beside portugeuse words so we were just going by what we saw, thought it was mint. puked the rest of the meal up after the first bite :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,411 ✭✭✭positron


    Goats cheese - smells exactly like an old goat.
    Cockles - 3 days of throwing up and diarrhea.
