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]

Cup of tea, please
A few years ago, when I first met Mr. WBM, I went over to his place one night after a particularly gruelling day in the office.
He asked if I wanted anything to drink, and so told him I was gagging for a cuppa. After translating that into "I'd like a cup of tea, please" he said no problem, he has tea bags.
Now, bear in mind, this is America and the Americans don't drink tea as a rule, unless it's cold. So, I asked him if he knew how to make a cup and he said of course. "Great, I want milk and 2 sugars, please".
5 minutes later, he proudly walks over to me. The tea looked a bit milky but I figured fuck it, I'll drink it as it was so sweet of him to make it for me.
Took a sip......Gah! It was a rosehip tea herbal teabag he'd used.
After that, I made my mum send over an emergency pack of Yorkshire Tea Bags and introduced him to a proper cuppa!
