I once had an extremely dissapointing cheesecake at a pub.

It tasted too much of cheese. Put me off cheesecake for at least a week.

I love pickled beetroot in a sandwich but has to have something with it like ham or chicken.

Was offered beetroot on a plate once at my friend's grannies' house. They raved about how she made lovely beetroot and I was on a phase of eating things like that straight from a jar so needless to say I was well pleased and took a massive bite only to find out it wasn't pickled just cooked and in water

The vinegar saves the humble but boring beet, lesson learned

Sauerkraut.

Have had it dished up a few times in Germany and Eastern Europe, I generally just say nothing and leave it now.

First time I literally soar it straight back out and threw the whole plateful of awfulness into the bin

Years ago I was in the TA on exercise in 4 ft of snow, Leek Training Area. Not eaten for 24 hrs, we were taken into a barn with upturned boxes on tables and there was noise from the boxes. Instructors lift the boxes and suddenly live chickens everywhere. There for us to catch and cook ourselves.

Friends of mine said I must go to Grindleford Station Café in the Peak District after a Wildcamp for breakfast as I’d love it, so we did.

They only do thick sliced white bread, no sourdough, not even whole grain. They refused to poach my eggs , fried only. Everything is deep fried in pig fat, even the baked beans were lubed up. Coffee was instant and shit, full fat milk only and then the climax , there’s this ice cream container full of white sugar (of course they don’t have brown sugar) and little plastic spoons that you use the drip into a cup for reuse and all lumpy coffee sugar from the last week.

What did I do? I laughed at the joke and made plans for revenge. I detoxed for a week once I got home

I used to work at a chain italian restaurant when I first became a chef and the cabonara sauce from the central kitchen was some of the worst stuff I've tasted, super salty creamy and slightly sour tasting with dry hard lardons in it and mushy pasta.

I worked there a month before finding a new place to work.

I like trying different stuff and even if I don't like it usually glad I tried. I was at a restaurant in Germany once and was served this thing that was meant to be like a speciality pate. It was pure fat, disgusting thing that I spat out and never to be revisited. The other one was dry spaghetti covered in caster sugar. Apparently some sort of desert type of thing. Also revolting to me.

Maybe not the worst, but I had a memorable experience with a curry I made. I have a pretty high tolerance for chili heat, but on this occasion was using Habaneros for the first time and used the same amount as I do with milder varieties. The result was epic, the guest could not eat their food. I did, and felt a burning sensation in my stomach for two days.

In the late 90s i was near the top of a mountain in Japan, by the top cable car station, i had walked up myself, there was a row of vending machines, well there had to be as vending machines are everywhere in Japan selling nearly everything.

I'd learnt nothing about Japanese writing and relayed solely on pics for food, it was a roasting hot day and i used my last few coins to buy what i thought was a choc ice, wrong, it was a tube of ice cold processed squid, it was disgusting

A so called 'curry' in San Francisco.

You know those el cheapo frozen ready meal ones you can get that glow bright orange like a Ready Brek kid and taste of nothing. Well imagine one of those being marinated in cloudy dishwater for a couple of days and then heated to a couple of degrees above tepid.

My curry in Frisco was still way worse.

PS - I have had the pleasure of many curries in both Rusholme, Manchester and of course Bradford so appreciate I've been spoilt rotten

One went on a business trip to Taiwan and I got served freshly cooked fish.

It was definitely fresh, can confirm that.

The centre body was grilled to perfection. However, the still attached head and tail were still bright silver and moving flapping around like one of those Billy Bass wall things that were all the rage once upon a time.

I got off lightly. A colleague was once served LIVE baby dormouse in sweet n sour sauce in Vietnam
