Terrible food
Back when I was a student, we had a "clear out the fridge" party. Everyone brought what they had left and the idea was to make a big meal out of it.
The stew/casserole/whatever was going surprisingly well until someone added the tin of mackerel in tomato sauce they'd been hoarding all year.
What's the worst thing you've ever cooked or eaten? Who's the worst cook you've encountered?
[and yes, we've asked this before, but way, way back before we had the fancy QOTW pages]

Magyar Lard
Just after this beautiful country opened it's doors to the West, I accompanied two delightful Dutch young ladies for dinner in one of Budapest's nicer traditional restuarants - cheap as chips because of how good the exchange rate was.
We ordered the most expensive thing on the menu (a shocking 300 forints - £3.50). It turned out to be a big slice of lard, covered in batter and breadcrumbs and then deep fried in - more lard. Served with something cold from an animal that I had presumed was never served up for humans - and it made tripe look attractive.
We were too polite not to eat it...... There are Trabants in Budapest that must still be stained from the subsequent vomiting contest.
