Pretty good list~ along with sea cucumber and a few other things I've seen listed~ but worst I've ever had was the soup several officers made and had us eat in SERE school~ one of the main ingredients was seagulls we got by throwing stones at them~ were just thrown (whole) into the pot, feathers and all!
OMG, two of my sons went to SERE school. I can't wait to ask what they ate.
Velveeta "cheese". Spam, and now, turkey spam. I'm not even gonna try it. Boxed mac and cheese. Ewww! Canned asparagus is gross, but fresh is good.
I didn't like green pea soup as a child. There was something about the bones in the soup that grossed me out, plus I didn't like the flavor. I also didn't like that particular grandmother's culinary "skills" or rather lack of them.
If there were bones in your pea soup, your grandmother WAS a bad cook!!!
I know that seems very odd but unlike many countries around the world, In America there is often a ham hock in pea soup.
I understand having the ham hock in there while cooking the soup, but either gramma put the ENTIRE bone in her/his bowl, there's something else going on. Normally you take the hock out before serving, correct?
Grape Nuts. My grandmother had a box of it when I was a kid, and I tried some. I like grapes and I like nuts, right? This stuff tasted like dried boogers.
Black licorice.
Pickled herring and sour cream.
Snails. I've heard people talk about escargot, and I saw a can of snails at the supermarket. In all fairness, I may have done something incorrectly, but the things tasted like dirt.
It was pretty disgusting- even after I heated it up in the microwave.
