Terrible foodBack 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]

Should we be surprised that student stories are becoming a theme on this QOTW?Freshers week, Glasgow 1997, I decided to 'impress' people with my mad drinking skillz. I can tell you that using vodka instead of water in diluting Ribena is not a good idea, and troughing a half bottle of Bailey's straight afterwards only makes matters worse. I don't remember what happened next, but the next morning my room mate was clearing the vom from the basin. And the top of his wardrobe. And the ceiling.
In actual food terms, the worst has got to be a toss-up between my ex-boyfriend's 'chicken soup' (a tub of cream fried up with roast chicken carcass and butter and then put through a colander) and my former flatmates 'pasta bake' (cooked pasta with scrambled eggs, tomatoes, minced beef and cheese, which was inevitably left to congeal in the fridge for a couple of days until we had nothing else to eat and no money to buy food).
