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]

QuornI turned veggie four years or so ago and so far have done rather well not missing steak and all but I struggle with my resolve when faced with bacon. Oh, the taste and smell of crispy Danish bacon served with mushrooms and cheese in a sarnie...
Imagine my delight at seeing "Quorn Rashers" for sale at my local Sainsburys. Having sampled the frankly agreeable sausages and the quorn mince which I use in my lasagne (the secret is in the preparation. Soak the Quorn in veggie stock and garnish with herbs) I was looking forward to seeing how the vaguely rasher shaped Quorn slices went.
Oh dear. The end result actually lookes like an inner sole from my trainers and I daresay tastes quite similar too. In order to get them crispy, you have to fry them until they fall apart. The end result is pink and overly salty with in indescribable flavour which has more than once made me wonder whether my Nike inner soles would make a more appetising sandwich filling.
[best Homer Simpson voice] Mmmmm.... Bacon!
[edit] My best mate is amusingly afflicted with flatulence which registers on the Beaufort scale after eating my veggie lasagne. I don't invite him round much these days.
