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]

There's a lesson to be learnt from many of these stories.
Ever wondered why in Asia they eat with chop sticks or a fork and spoon.
It goes like this: thye don't need knives as everything is cut into bite size pieces by the chef. There is a very very good reason for for this. Meat in Asia is often left unrefridgerated for days on end, sometimes sitting in the sun, a receipe for food poisoning really. Unless you cut it into slices or strips then fry it at a high tempreture in a wok, thereby ensuring that all parts of the meat reach that magical tempreture of 80c at which all known everything is killed dead.
Take say quarter of a chicken and cook it in an over or stick it under a grill, and you can never be sure of the tempreture reached in the middle of said chicken.
So students of England take note. When cooking meat that maybe considered a bit dodgy, slice it into strips a couple of milimetres thick, and jobs a good 'un.
For the on topic part. In a drunken haze, I once gave a bag lady head. She had a very scabby arse.
