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]

My old flatmateactually the one who was the window cleaner, bookie's assistant and gravedigger from last week's QotW, used to make chips every night.
We were at university for 10 week terms, and at the beginning of term he would change the oil in the chip pan. Then he would use it every night until the end of term. By about week 3 it had changed chemically into something which would have been too much for Quatermass audiences. The oil used to foam right up to the top of the pan but, as if it had its own intelligence, it would come no further.
By some stroke of luck he never caused a fire. Maybe the oil had been rendered incombustible or something. By a bigger stroke of luck, he's still alive 15+ years later.
He's a fat bastard now though.
