The Worst Things People Have Tasted


A surprising umber of questionable things can find their way into one's mouth. Most often it's some cursed food made by someone who shouldn't be cooking. Other times it's products that have no business being sold to anyone ever. And on rare occasions you accidentally eat a butterfly while you're riding a bike or something. These are their stories.

It tasted like dirty socks that a cat had been playing with for months. But I have never laughed as hard as I did that day... I (stupidly) asked my then 11-year-old sister (who is on the spectrum and thus has problems modulating her voice) if she had had a cheese ball. She proceeds to effectively yell: "YEAH IT TASTED LIKE A BUTT'S FO

I thought I had grabbed my almonds. They began foaming and tasted extremely bitter and sour at the same time. I thought I was getting poisoned. Also once tried an olive straight off a tree. Also tasted like poison. Don't recommend

Text - A_True_Unus 199 points · 3 days ago · edited 3 days ago I was in a mall one time and the candy store there had a cooler with a bunch of sodas. One of these was Bacon Soda. Me being a very curious person who likes trying new things was like, "Hey, I like bacon, I like carbonated drinks, why don't I try carbonated bacon?" I went outside to get some fresh air and try this soda because I didn't want to accidentally spill anything. I took a sip and it was unbearable. It tasted like a dog treat

So the next day my husband is enjoying some spaghetti for lunch when CRUNCH he bit into a stink bug that had landed in it. If you know how badly a stink bug smells, you can only imagine how bad it tastes. My husband was projectile vomiting within five minutes and it's been

I couldn't figure out what it was, but it looked like a delicious chestnut like the ones my mom would bring home in huge bags to both snack on and feed squirrels with. So I did what any sensible pre-kindergartener would do, and took a bite. ... It was not a chestnut. To this day I can't

Literally the worst thing ever.

Which was an awful dish called Tomato Aspic. It is basically tomato juice Jello, and is every bit as awful as it sounds. The whole family hated it, but my grandma couldnt cook, and did the best she could. I remember being 10, and tried sneaking some to my dog that would eat everything from socks to dog poop

Text - lonemonk 2.0k points · 3 days ago · edited 2 days ago 2 2 34 For 35 years (post war to about 1985) my Grandfather worked in a lab developing new cake mixes for donuts and other cake stuffs. After retiring, my Grandfather would make weekly trips to the old plant/lab for a visit. While there he would often be given as many paper bags of plain vanilla donuts which were the test batches for the day. If I recall the lab always produced and entire rack of material to test the new mixtures. Most

Text - One day, I got into my car to go to a matinee movie with school friends and I brought a donut with me. Once moving I grabbed the donut from passenger seat and bit into it as normal. What happened next, almost caused a motor vehicle accident. The taste of this one bite was the most REVOLTING thing I had ever (or since) experienced. It sent signals to my brain that I MUST evacuate this material from my mouth IMMEDIATELY! I stopped the car in the middle of the road in order to open the door

Text - Next time I was at Grandparents house I mentioned this crazy experience I had with one of the donuts, and the fact I threw out the entire batch, thinking it was actual poison. He thought about it for not more than a moment and a smile ran across his face. One of his former lab worker colleagues had intended that donut (or that bag perhaps) for HIM. He indicated it was an old workplace prank to add this vile, but very much non-poison, chemical to the mix to punk the other staff. After tell

Text - I can still taste it in my mind a little bit. That is how horrible that taste was. Grandpa has been gone since 1997, this all happened in 1987. I would taste that shit willingly ONE more time if I could only laugh with him about it just a once more... (I am doing that anyway, but be better with him present) Bonus Fact: Starting in 1970ish? the cake mixes this company designed were widely used by Tim Hortons when that company still made all donuts in house. Not sure exactly, but around the

The temperature in Singapore as you can imagine is something akin to being in a hot oven all day all night all year round. Even breathing is difficult. As a tourist you get hot and thirsty. I think that's the only drink in my life I just said fuck it after one sip.. I ordered it, I'll pay for it but bring

Text - MrEmptySet 779 points · 3 days ago & One time I was eating a bag of chips (I think they were Doritos) while driving late at night. It was dark so I couldn't really see what I was eating. Turns out in the bag there was a big concentrated clump of flavoring dust that formed somehow. Popped that whole sucker right in my mouth. BIG mistake. You might think it would just taste like chip dust, but no. It tasted like dirt and pain. It's like there was so much condensed flavor that my brain had a

Text - Worlds_Best_Coffee 520 points · 3 days ago I stayed with some friends one summer during high school and the mom did not cook, it was a known thing. She grew up wealthy and married down into the middle class. One night she made something that was cream of mushroom soup, cooked in a casserole dish with fennel seeds, crushed up Ritz crackers and rice - but it all soaked together into a single consistency. the taste still haunts me.

Text - ilre1484 371 points · 3 days ago Zombie Skittles O. I thought it was just going to be a random mystery flavor or at worst just a somewhat bad taste but boy was I wrong! When you bite into the "rotten zombie" flavor it tastes what rotting meat smells like and it doesn't go away. After you eat one it just sticks with you and the smell comes back up every time you breathe. So disgusting.
