What has been the worst meal you ever had?

[Stone Cold Steve Jobs 22,440]

I went to friendly's once with my parents when i was a child and we all got food poisoning.

I tried the American version of corn on the cob once and holy shit, it was flavorless. Just butter and nothing else, really? But maybe that's because I was raised on the Mexican version of it, with Tapitio and queso fresco. Tastes way better then just butter

I had this terrible meal of fried corn patties Don't know why i tried them in the first place.

I tried to make my own curry before... It was like tar and tasted disgusting 😂

I had a burger that was completely fine on the outside and completely raw on the inside  Thankfully I didn’t eat enough of it to get sick

Worst one that I can remember was at my friend's house - he tried to cook chicken livers fried in garlic (he knows I'm a fan of chicken liver, nature's multivitamin baby) and he burnt them to a blackened crisp - was literally inedible. This same friend also eats egg whites mixed with oats for breakfast, so I'm convinced he doesn't have working tastebuds

The spaghetti I ate after I had surgery. It tasted like paste. Hospital food is an easy target, but I nearly threw up after eating it.

It's a three way tie between this Chinese food I had, literally everything from my local McDonalds has been disgusting recently and the past three meals I had from TGI Fridays were terrible too.

Chicken noodle soup at a hospital. It. Tasted. Awful. It had basically no taste and was dry! HOW DO YOU MAKE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP DRY?? It’s SOUP! Served alongside it was gross ass mashed potatoes and gravy with the gravy tasting like wallpaper paste. Just awful all around.

A meal with salmon, there wasn't any taste  

[Tao 7,763]

When I lived in Flagstaff AZ,  we went to downtown dinner and ordered a steak samwhich and fries....

• The steak was dryer then the freaking road ppl drive on
• No onions at all,  no taste it was like eating a boot of heel on the first bite
• The bun was stale........
• Fries,  the  ocean would have cried at the taste of the salt on these tatter rejects

Panda Express - sweet and sour beef, and egg rolls

The sweet and sour beef had this gloopy, overly sweet sauce with a texture I can only describe as "booger", and the beef and veggies were overcooked.

The egg rolls I got with it were tacky and lukewarm. Everything was lukewarm.

This other place called Wow Bao - two buns, three egg rolls, and a teriyaki rice bowl

The bao were only tennis ball sized, not softball, which is how I like them. They were leathery all around and dense, and only had like a tablespoon of filling. Not only this, but I ordered four and instead got two. Kind of a letdown.

The teriyaki rice bowl wasn't much better: overcooked meat and veggies, underwhelming sauce, moist rice. 

The egg rolls were the best part of that meal.

I think about 4 years ago I was on a vacation with my family and we went to a restaurant. Literally all of the food there smelled and tasted like an old abandoned house and yet everyone else eating there liked it... I also think any type of school lunch is disgusting.

I’ve had a casserole or two I wasn’t crazy about, but generally I like almost anything. I had a great lobster dinner once and enjoyed it massively until it made me violently ill. So maybe that counts.

Pizza at a daycare center, something about sausage on it that's terrible  

[TheRockARooster 51,241]

I had a black honey chicken and fried rice with spring rolls at this restaurant and I never went to that restaurant ever again.

[Megas 27,630]

There was a Chinese buffet I went to that had some of the absolute rancid pizza I ever had 

[EpicEnergy 23,218]

Hospital green veggies are like vomit textured green veggies. Nasty stuff, don't go to the hospital for food.

The worst meal I ever had was in elementary school (Kindergarten - Fifth Grade); I think it was somewhere in the first three grades of school.
I cannot even tell you what it was. It had no identifiable traits. NOTHING about it looked like recognizable food.
It was just a black goop with some kind of white sauce on top. And the smell was absolutely foul and rotten. I was gagging and crying smelling this dish.

I'm not usually the kind of person who is affected by smell. If a food tastes good despite the smell, I can get over it. But this? This dish would have broken anyone.
Basically, it was the kind of stench you could taste, and that's putting it mildly.
It smelled so bad that I just couldn't bring myself to taste it.

You know the stereotype of terrible cafeteria food at school? This was the poster child for it. I have no doubt that it was expired food, scooped out from the bottom of a bucket. Any nutritional value it ever had was long since gone.

The worst meal I can recall having (and the most recent one to boot) is baked chicken seasoned with Chicka Licka Bam Bam seasoning. My mom bought that seasoning to make baked chicken with hoping that it would taste good, but it turned out to be WAY too spicy. That was a few months ago.

A burnt breakfast sandwich? That sounds like something Sweetie Belle would make for Rarity.
