NFT: What’s the worst dish you have ever had?

eric2425ny : 8/11/2022 11:31 pm
I had mine today. I ordered a Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla special at my office (this cafeteria is normally top notch restaurant quality food).

It was so bad I took one bite and threw it in the trash. When you order something like that you are thinking it’s going to be diced up chicken tossed in Franks red hot or something with a cheese base of like mozzarella, maybe cheddar, with some blue cheese crumbles sprinkled lightly on top.

They literally substituted blue cheese, like thick blue cheese pieces, as the cheese base for the quesadilla. Then they like randomly chopped up large chicken breast pieces and threw them in there. It was the most disgusting thing I have ever eaten. All you could taste was blue cheese.

In their defense they apologized and gave me my money back.

Some guy at one of my classmates high school graduation party made a chicken dish. I forget what it was but it was just soaked in nothing but water it seemed to be. Fucking disgusting. Couldn't finish the first bite. Spit it out and here I am talking about it to this day nearly 20 years later.

1. Cheese steak Sub somewhere on Asbury Park Boardwalk in late 70's....to this day, worst food I've ever paid for. It was horrible. If there were a few insects in there it may have improved the taste.

2. First meal in boot camp mess hall, Great Lakes Il, 1981. Sausage Patty supposedly. More like a thin version of a hockey puck. The first, and worst, meal I had my entire time in the Navy.

This was from an AirForce mess hall back in the early 80’s. It was so bad I was up half the night puking my guts up. I haven’t touched it since.

At my mother in laws.

The turkey had zero moisture and she made a steak with which you could hammer nails in a board. Pretty sure the "sauce" was ketchup.

Was 15-20 years ago - but will never forget it.

I hated the Turkey A La King already, and then one time when we did a helicopter ride, when we landed and got into position, I realized that our squad fuckup puked it all over my ruck. I still can smell it to this day
College cafeteria meals were pretty bad that I recall.

My nieces and nephews talk about how great their food plans and choices are these days at school. Pasta bars, omlette stations, coffee and dessert spots.

Times have changed.

MRE's were before my time, but with a few exceptions, C-Rations were just Godawful.

There was this gas station  
pjcas18 : 8/12/2022 2:47 pm : link
in Manassas, Virginia (the story could end there and you could probably fill in the blanks) and in the back they made tacos, burritos, nachos - not like a Cumberland Farms or other gas station that just reheats frozen food under a heat lamp, but they had propane stoves and griddles (probably illegally).

Anyway a couple of my work colleagues and I thought the "all you can fit on a tray for $5" worth of gas station "Mexican" food was a bargain.

Less than 12 hours later I was a second away from driving myself to the ER, but I couldn't stay off the shitter long enough to get to my car and then I was puking in the sink while shitting in the shitter simultaneously. Good times.

Oh my God lol. That sounds horrible. The sickest I ever got off of food was at Buffalo Wild Wings. I got boneless wings with blue cheese dressing on the side. I suspect they left the dressing sitting out and threw it in the carry out bag not realizing. I ate dinner at like 7, went to bed and literally got sick every 15-30 minutes from 2 am until 11 am the next day. I thought I was going to die lol. I couldn’t even keep water down.

Did you at least have any idea what you were getting yourselves into?

I think something similar happened in a sitcom years ago but I cannot remember the show.

Hey at least it was a good laxative and better ... out than in? Right?

I mean, I knew food from a gas station was dicey, but I was also young, poor and stupid. We brought the trays of food back to the office (and they were take out style hard styrofoam trays - loaded with Mexican food - we each had one) and we were even bragging about it to our co-workers in the office lunch room. "Look how much food we got for $5! suckers!"

lol.

Stuffed cabbage by the Polish lady ...  
short lease : 8/12/2022 10:02 pm : link

who could barely speak English and was hired to take care of my Mom while she was on her way out.

This lady was the sweetest woman on the planet and made sure my Mom had everything she needed 24 hours a day ... fed her, showered her, etc ...

While I was home visiting she cooked and I tried to be polite but, it was horrible. I told them both that I was just not hungary ...

Wow - going through sweats just thinking about it and that was about 9 years ago. HOR-RIB-LE
