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]

So. Much. Food.There are a number of stories I could tell here.
The first one is a couple of years ago. At my grandma's house, me and my cousin found an ancient packet of 'instant' caramel sauce. It was meant for bananas, but we didn't have any. We did have a lot of spaghetti, though. I kinda expected it to be kinda nice. But we didn't cook the pasta enough, so we had kinda hard spaghetti, gone-off caramel sauce, and lots of it. It was utterly hideous.
The second story concerns my alcoholic father. At one point my Mum, sister and brother went away somewhere. I was obviously too cool to go with them, so I stayed with Dad. BAD move. He decided to cook one night, which usually involved him locking himself in the kitchen, drinking a lot, and producing some monstrocity. This time is was sausage, mash and beans. A quality dish, when done well. There was no sausage. And no beans. Only mash. And it had cigarette ash in. A lot of it. And I couldn't throw it away, 'cause Dad would have got rather mad. So I ate it. All. Blergh.
