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]

OK, so really you're talking about food you actually like....So; 1)Satay Baked Beans. Student staple food; 1 tin beans as assumed, spoonfuls peanut butter, add chilli. Perhaps basil for a more Thai effect. Need more protein? add cheese, or...
2) Witchetty grubs (wood-eating larvae of various Australian moth species) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witchetty_grub
are bestest raw, before they have time to get you thinking. Only the very end bit (the head) is crunchy, the rest gently explodes, warmly, in an alive, seeping sort of way. Tastes a bit like cheese and honey, but with an attractive oaky finish. You could get witchetty grub soup in tins a while back; it was, however, crap.
3) A legendary Stockman's Pie. Contains approximately equal parts kangaroo, emu, crocodile, camel and buffalo. I am not in the least jingoistic, but am creepily proud that we are the only nation that eats our coat of arms.
