Father Kit Cool Gun Garth Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I barely recall as a child being fed Gerber Baby Food and especially the green ones with the foul taste. Growing up and having the ability to choose your foods, I tended to stay away from those that I assumed I didn't like or had a bad experience with trying them. Cauliflower , Brussel Sprouts , Collard Greens , cooked spinach , etc. You get the picture. And although my taste buds never took to them, there have also been medicines that had a nasty taste to them as well. In particular is the drink one is required to take before having a colonoscopy. I believe its called Magnesium Citrate. Yuck!! So for me, this is the worst taste I have ever experienced in my life so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace_of_Hearts Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 The most recent was those salted prunes that they sell in the convenience stores now. Turnip greens and brussel sprouts are high up on the list from my younger days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G W Wade Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 When I grew up on a small farm and a few dairy cows to supplement. In the spring when the cows were first turned out to green pasture the milk would get a nasty green tint and equally nasty taste. Have barely drank a glass of milk in the last 60 years.

Chili Ron Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Howdy, In hospital I had a defencicy might have been potassium. They gave me something that tasted like salt on fire. The nurse had a container of apple juice which was wonderful at putting out the 'fire'. After that I had to have apple juice IN HAND before I took that stuff. Best CR next worse chili pepper.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 When I was kid, I hated Brussel sprouts. Later I learned to cook and discovered that was because my mother boiled them. They taste great roasted. I hated certain chowders and soups, that was because the cooks always burned their onions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yul Lose Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 My mother was a pretty good cook but there were some dishes that she experimented with because we had a couple of mule deer and elk to eat over the winters when I was growing up in Creede, Colorado. One dish she tried one time called for cloves in the recipe, mincemeat pie. It was so bad that to this day 54 years later I cannot stand cloves or mincemeat. She turned around a little while later and tried the same pie thing with green tomatoes and it didn’t work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixgun Sheridan Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 In our kitchen is an identical pair of small Chinese jars. One is used to store sugar for our tea and stays on the kitchen counter. My wife keeps salt in the other for her stir-fry cooking and leaves it next to the stove. Well, guess what happened one day? They got switched, and I went and poured two spoons of what I assumed was sugar in my tea. I spat it out so fast I think I sandblasted the paint on the wall.

Yul Lose Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 We used to have a miniature schnauzer, Smokey that was a very picky eater. My wife would try different things to get her to eat her breakfast, she called it and at one time resorted to buying sauces for the dog food. One day we had left over pulled pork and for lunch I made up a pulled pork sandwich. Well I sat down to eat it and it tasted a little strange but I didn’t want to waste it so I ate the whole thing. Little did I know, but the squeeze bottle of “BBQ” sauce was sauce for the dog food. I had left my glasses out in the shop when I fixed lunch and couldn’t see the little jumping dog at the top of the label, I thought that was a pig. My wife still gets a pretty good laugh out of that one whenever she sees me using a squeeze bottle of bbq sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Angus McPherson Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 IMO's pizza. Lot's of folks in St. Louis love it. Both my wife and I think it's the most gawdawful, so-called food, either of us have ever had the displeasure of putting into our mouths. I tried it once many, many years ago when there was an IMO's about two blocks from our apartment. Mind you it didn't taste rancid. I've had rancid food that was much better, it was just horrible. About 15 years and 30 miles from that incident a friend of ours ordered IMO's pizza for a kid's birthday party. I figured "what the heck, it's been a while" and I tried it again. It was every bit as nasty as the first time I tried it. I despise liver and won't eat seafood, but I'll take either before I ever touch an IMO's pizza again. Hell, if I were on a deserted island that could get IMO's pizza delivered I'd spend my time turning over rocks and logs looking for bugs. In case I left any doubt, I'm not a fan of IMO's pizza.

St. Louis Suomi SASS #31905 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 When I was in grade school a million years ago, we had Home Economics as a required class. One of the quick and easy meals they taught us to make was a pizza made from an English muffin, spread with tomato soup, and Velveeta cheese - Viola - Imo's PIZZA. It was horrid then and it is still horrid. Yuck-OOOO Dominics come close however to really terrible Pizza. STL Suomi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of wool sweat socks worn every day for a month and then left t ferment for aweek. Sounds like a brett (brettanomyces, a wild yeast) contamination. I had a batch of plum wine go off from it. It smells like rancid sweat socks and Band-aids. The worst thing I've ever tasted is Buckley's cough syrup. I thought terpin hydrate elixer tasted bad, but Buckley's has it beat. The worst "food" item I've ever tasted was shredded dried squid given to me by a Taiwanese co-worker. It looked and smelled like cedar shavings from the bottom of a guinea pig cage. Used shavings that had been left stewing in their own juices for a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.D. Daily Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 My mother was a great cook. She even took night school classes in baking; so, we always had treats in the house. However, she frequently severed liver from mature cows. Hated the stuff for besides tasting like rust it was like chewing on a shoe. While in the Army 4-69 through 11-71 I tried calves liver and onions; which I liked. Between my mother & maternal grandmother I frequently was exposed to creamed vegetables. Hate'em!! Gage worthy! The secret to preparing a stink vegetable like brussel sprouts is roasting or smothering them in cheese sauce made with real sharp cheddar cheese. I liked ham & lima beans C rat's only if heated. That is why I smuggled a Coleman 1 burner stove to Germany for the Reforger exercise in 1971. The stove was packed in an aluminum container that doubled as a pot & fry pan. Tried the SOS that was on the breakfast menu in almost every mess hall. It wasn't tasty enough to overcome what it looked like, contents of an infant's poopy diaper. I don't like anything that the primary ingredient is blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually grew fond of it - takes a little while, but it is possible. Most of my friends won't even get past the aroma! A chinese wife can open the door to many new and exciting tastes - some smell horrid, but taste great - some just the opposite. STL Suomi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
