    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.

      and on that day, they discovered they were, in fact, not a coprophiliac

      Reminds me of the story of the guy who thought he was into shit, until he hired someone to come into his house and shit on his face… only to have a change of heart at the last second as it was crowning and was too late to stop it

      We went to a restaurant that just servea bao sliders. My wife got the soft shelled crab thinking it would be crab meat. Nope, it was a breaded and fried whole crab plopped on a bao bun. She said it was good, just weird.

      I cannot imagine raw crab.

      I got a bag of those once when I was a kid. They were totally dried, but in they end it was just a bland, slightly salty way to jam shells between my teeth. 2.5/10, probably worse with rice.

      It’s possible I was actually supposed to soak them first.

    Mouldy yoghurt

    This was something like 16-17 years ago now so it’s clearly left a mark

    It was about 2-3am, I lived on the ground floor of a student house and I wanted a snack. Remembering I had bought some yoghurts a day or two before I figured that’s what I was going for.

    Now I’m not really sure what happened, if I picked up an old one I’d not noticed or it was just bad from the shop, but it didn’t notice until after I’d taken the first mouthful.

    Needless to say it tasted genuinely awful and put me off yoghurt in general for a good while

      Solid stuff? Someone did a really shit job of making it then. Unless you mean something that isn’t called jelly here. Taste is subjective but if they fucked that bit up then I wouldn’t be surprised if other things were done wrong too.

    Stinky tofu. It’s hard to describe the flavor. It’s like dead anchovies in fish sauce but with the texture of a slice of omelette. It’s like eating rotten fish snot. I involuntarily spit it out immediately after putting it in my mouth, almost like it fell out of my mouth. My hosts laughed and said I didn’t have to eat it, but I tried again and was able to keep it in my mouth but was not physically able to swallow it, like my ability to swallow was rejecting it. I spit it into a paper napkin and everyone laughed. I just couldn’t force myself to consume it.

        To each their own. I thought it was going to be like surströmming, which I liked. I’ve also eaten durian with no issue. Stinky tofu was not my thing.

          The name stinky tofu doesn’t help either eh?

          And, I’m not sure if I could stomach surströmming, but I’d love to try one day!

            The trick is to have someone prepare it who knows what they’re doing. Guy who made it for us opened it outside in a bowl of water to catch all the gas coming out. He rinsed it and then put it on potatoes with sour cream and chives. It was good, but we still ate it outside.

            I always cringed watching videos of people open a can in a hot car in Texas during the summer to “see how bad it smells”

      It’s a totally different taste if you can ever get it fresh (like out of a just opened shell level fresh). There’s no sliminess or fishy taste at all, just rich and savory with a hint of sweetness

    Y’all nasty.

    That said, my worst recently was parmesan cheese in soup after having vomited from norovirus. It tastes like vomit in the wrong context…

    I’m sure it’s not the nastiest thing, but it’s what comes to mind. I have a brother and we dared each other to eat stuff as kids, but I cannot recall…

      That reminds me of playing card games with my parents one time and I smelled what I thought was vomit. Turns out my folks liked to play each other while eating popcorn. Popcorn seasoned with Kraft Parmesan cheese. Gross.

      Once we realized what was causing the smell, the cards went in the trash and that habit stopped.

    The Elvis. The sandwich American rock singer Elvis Presley made famous. Peanut butter, banana, and bacon. Grilled like a grilled cheese sandwich.

    Addendum: I am allergic to peanut butter. I got ahold of a soy-based alternative called Wowbutter, and people who are not allergic tell me they nailed the taste, but the aftertaste is kinda not good. So, the first thing I did was shove a whole teaspoon-full of it in my mouth. My brain goes “you dumb fuck, you’re gonna die,” but I didn’t, because it wasn’t toxic. So I went and tried everything made with peanut butter (BTW, strawberry > grape for PB&Js), including the Elvis. A lot of it was kinda gross. I guess if you were raised on peanut butter, maybe, I can see it, but I didn’t think the experience was anything special. Not when Nutella exists… which I also can’t have. But then there’s Biscoff spread, which is non-toxic, apparently it’s also vegan (wouldn’t peanut butter be, too?), and it’s ten billion percent better than all that other shit. Though, you would be absolutely right in saying I’ve never had real peanut butter, or your favourite variety of it.

      My wife has a severe nut allergy. We have tried wow butter and I have to be frank, it’s maybe somewhat similar to the shitty ultra processed refined sugar peanut butter but just barely, and you’re bang on about the aftertaste. It’s sickly.

      We much prefer Sun Butter (the no sugar added variety).

      But if I’m being honest that also isn’t quite the right taste substitute for peanut butter either, but it’s the closest I’ve tried.

        Sun Butter? Is that made from sunflower seeds? I’ve had fake Reese’s cups that were made from sunflower seed butter rather than peanuts. I thought it was pretty good.

      As someone not allergic to peanuts, but who grew up in Europe, I was probably about 20 when I tried peanut butter for the first time. I agree with you, it’s meh. Not terrible, not great.

      Nutella, ovomaltine, pistachio or white chocolate spreads are much better. Never tried biscoff, sounds promising.

        I’m kinda the opposite of you. I’m American and grew up with peanut butter. I didn’t try Nutella until my 20s, and while it was ok, I didn’t think it was nearly as good as what people made it out to be.

        While I don’t have peanut butter often nowadays, it’s still one of my favorite things when added to sweets, like peanut butter cups or peanut butter fudge. Peanut butter + chocolate is a heavenly combo.

        Wait just a minute! You’re comparing sugary spreads to our peanut butter? Imma remember this next time somebody from Europe gives us shit about sugar in our sandwich bread.

        Biscoff butter is great. Absolutely horrendously unhealthy IIRC, but tastes great.
        Also, there are so many chocolate spreads out there that are a hundred times better than Nutella nowadays, don’t sell your palate short!

    A mouthful of expired chocolate milk.

    I bought a bottle of choccy milk at a gas station, got one for my kiddo too. I go to take a swig and its… chunky and stringy. I went back to the store and they exchanged both bottles of milk. They had to go find two that weren’t expired.

    I just make my own at home now.

    Live ants.

    This was 30 years ago. I lived on the second floor of an apartment. I left a half-eaten bag of Little Debbie chocolate donuts on the floor next to my bed. The next night, in a dark room, watching David Letterman, I remembered and reached for the bag. I was three donuts in before I noticed the slightly strange taste, and the ant crawling on my face.

    Ants taste a bit sour and bitter.

        To each their own. The taste wasn’t bad, but I almost threw up because of the texture. I could feel the firmness of the unrefined, unprocessed, raw creature. I could feel how my teeth made their way through the various organic structures - muscles, innards, brains and all the other organs - of a creature so fresh, that it felt like it could’ve swam away if I’d spit it out and cast it into the ocean instead of grinding, crushing and ripping it apart inside my mouth.

        I’m not a vegan btw.
