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]

Ahhhh, veggie
The French simply don't understand vegetarianism. Some seven or eight years ago I was away on a history trip to the Lille region of France (from which you can smell Belgium. Strange but true, Belgium smelled like flatulence). We would eat at a grubby local restaurant every night, where we were given a slip of paper indicating what we had chosen (which had actually been chosen some time before). Mine said 'legumes' on it, to indicate that I wanted to eat vegetables. So I handed it to the very disinterested French lady, and in return I get a steaming plate of chicken.
Damn it.
The vegetarian options were terrible anyway, essentially overboiled vegetables. So I lived on chocolate for the week! Top stuff.
Lots of vegetarians have mentioned quorn... now, quorn sausages are just nasty. As is the bacon, that's just idiotic, if you want that why not just eat real bacon. BUT the mince and the larger pieces that they do are just fine! Pretty tasty in fact. But if you want sausages, Linda McCartney every time.
