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]

Quiche queenI think I've spoken on here before about my girlfriends INSANE sister.
She lived with us for four years (four years of my life gone, just like that!).
Amongs her many 'eccentricities' was that she could only cook four things. Four. She lived with us for four years and we had a cooking rota which meant she cooked every third day. you do the math...
Quiche - she had two varieties, tomato & basil or leak & blue cheese. Whichever she cooked, it would come out the oven a hot, wet mess (like a badly cooked omellete in a wet pastry case). It would leave a little puddle on your plate after you'd eaten it. I hate quiche in any form, let alone this.
Pasta charlotte - nothing like the real thing. This was pasta with tomato sauce backed in the oven until the consistancy was like blamange.
Pasta puttenesva - actually not bad the first 20 times I had it.
Mushroom Risotto - again not bad the first few times I had it.
Eating these four things on a continuous cycle for four years nearly drove me mad and stopped me from eating pasta or risotto for years (I don't eat quiche anyway on principal).
She left us over three years ago and we still get risotto every time we go round for tea.
