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]

Piiiiiiie!My mum is an amazing cook, but is prone to experimenting with things no one should experiment with. She once made onion pie, a money-saving measure. I like onions, I like pie, this should have been great. But no. I don't know what she did with it but it should never have happened.
As it turned out, she could have saved even more money by not making anything at all - when we cut it open the limp onion slithered out and it looked like curls of dead white worms. It looked like it was all a slithering mass of maggots. My dad later likened it to when you cut open a cow (lived in the countryside, we did) and the intestines spill out. We all - even my mum - sat staring at it for a few moments, and then quietly retreated from the kitchen.
Hungry? Not nearly enough.
Although the worst cook would be my sister - love her dearly, but my fondness for her was severely tested when aged 7 she handed me a mug of her latest invention that she thought would be awesome. It was the closest I've come to death so far - hot chocolate and ketchup. Was so sick I missed a day of school - of all the days to miss, the last day of the year!
Woo, first post, bit crap.
