What is the worst food in terms of flavor or lack of
The English have chippy and sausage and I think it’s disgustingly bad
In terms of just general nastiness, I present Snickers Salad
It’s a heady blend of chopped up Snickers, granny Smith apples, marshmallows, and most importantly, lots of Cool Whip™️
I like most of those things separately, but together it’s like chewing on a damp bowl of sugar
What the fuck why would you post this
They asked for the worst food
This is worse than that
Be glad I didn’t post the picture of it they have in Wikipedia
I got served so many things called salad back in the day
Pretzel salad is alright
What in the 1960s is that, it looks like one of those horrific “recipes” that’s just an excuse to mash 3-5 processed food products together. It looks like it should be suspended in jello
It’s a Midwestern salad in the vein of Ambrosia salad
Just mushing up everything sweet and serving it to friends and family
That looks disgusting, what the hell is wrong with people
Learning how to cook from the Cool Whip™️recipe book is a hell of drug
Tangentially related but it just reminds me of a cookbook that my friend’s brother had, called something like A Man’s Can Plan, that consisted solely of recipes that involved opening 1-3 cans and following the directions. I can’t remember if it was literally a branded cookbook or if someone figured men needed a recipe to tell them to read the side of a can.

Never heard of that

is that some great depression shit
nobody’s eaten those in 55 years
not true
midwesterners still make some of the slightly less hideous variations of those to this day
admittedly I don’t know if I’ve had a savory one in a long time but jello, canned mandarin orange, other canned fruit, cottage cheese, marshmallow, etc have all featured
Sometimes tuna too…
most midwestern casseroles
What, you don’t like tater tots and ground beef mixed with cream of mushroom soup?
Mom?
Only if you want me to be
ketchup is gross esp in the states, basically flat tomato soda complete with HFCS
You can pry my tomato frosting out of my cold dead hands lol
The only condom ent I like is BBQ ketchup is overrated disgusting
I feel this a lot, fuck most condiments but mostly fuck ketchup
I have never tried it but jellied eels look absolutely nasty
It’s a cheap easy answer but fast food slop. Just a bunch of sugar, salt, and grease moulded together in a grotesque parody of food that tricks your brain into thinking you like it. It’s one even slightly redeeming feature was it’s low cost, and it doesn’t even have that anymore
One time I ordered beef tartare without knowing what it was. Why the fuck people like that I have no idea, genuinely the worst thing I have ever tried
deleted by creator
Please tell me what it tasted like
It’s honestly pretty mild. I’ve only ever had good tartare though, so idk what it would be like with low quality ingredients. Hard to describe. My best description would be imagine eating sashimi but it’s beef lol but it’s a pretty light flavor.
Cabbage that has been cooked even very slightly is one of the foulest things I’ve ever encountered. The stench spreads and lingers horribly if it’s heated even briefly, and more than the lightest exposure to heat gives it a sickening aftertaste.
Raw cabbage is ok if not great, and pickled it’s actually quite good especially if it’s pickled with garlic, onions, and hot peppers, it’s just heat that does something horrible to it.
If I recall, heating cabbage causes the formation of sulfur
This is especially true when it’s boiled
The wisconsin specialty: the cannibal sandwich
literally just a raw ground beef sandwich with onion salt and pepper. Nothing else
I like those, but there’s worse cooked food.
yeah honestly its just the pure carnism of it all, plus the fact that in the modern day with grocery store ground beef that’s sat around for god knows how long its a great way to get food poisoning lol. I guess it’s just redneck tartare on a sandwich but like… no. please no
I just have to spread the word of this barbarity when given the chance
Most people that still carry on that tradition have the sense to get freshly ground or go to the higher-class butcher shops, but I can’t speak for the conditions the cow was in before that.
Pickled fish, omg.
Back in my day in my country where the fashy values were never too far from the surface, the idea of education included the fun times of having to eat or at least taste everything on offer at school lunch.
My elementary school did pickled fucking herring, the kind where the fish is all red and slimy. And we all had to eat one fillet or throw up trying. They lined us up and watched that we all take one piece and eat it. It scarred me for life.
Some people apparently love that stuff, with new potatoes or whatever. I personally won’t be in the same room with an open jar of that nastiness.
I like having pickled herring on rye bread once in a while (and wash it down with beer and aquavit) but I can understand why people wouldn’t like it. It is a very particular taste.
I love pickled herring lol, its literally just pickled fish, so idk why people hate it so much unless they don’t like fish or pickles
the tough one is lutefisk, (or surstromming)
The texture and smell is the issue for me. Love fish and love pickles, separately.:D
The hate in here on cabbage and pickled herring. This feels like anti-Polish sentiment!
This feels like anti-Polish sentiment!
And it will continue until we get all the pierogi from you
baked beans on toast
Raw cucumber, it’s the “soap cilantro” gene but all the time.
Infinitely inferior to cooked or pickled.
Have you had pico de gallo or ceviche? I’m don’t like plain raw cucumbers but i’ll throw some lime and salt on them and eat them that way
Not sure if I’ve had those with cucumbers in them, but I’d be willing to try if not!
Cheese. I can eat almost anything, any vegetable, any legume, any spice, any meat, any cuisine, anything but not that. It smells horrible, looks horrible and tastes horrible. And people go mad for it.
any cheese? or specific ones
I’m a bit of a garbage can, but pimento loaf and that cheap-grade deli meat that was sliced and packaged so long ago it has that kinda wet slickness to it makes me lose my appetite, no matter how much it’s churches up with condiments and whatever.
slimy deli meat does get me too. I’ll eat processed slop, whatever, bologna doesn’t bother me, but when its slimy it’s just like “fuck this, this is rotten or on the verge of it”
