A custard pie that wasn’t made well so it tasted like cold eggs. It was like chewing farts. 🤢

Chicken soup 🍲…… but not delicious chicken soup! This was a putrid green colored broth with an entire chicken in it! Organs! Bones! Skin! Whole chicken just plopped in and cooked. It was gross

My husband and I went to a potluck at a park shelter one time. Someone had brought vegetables and dip. I was reaching for some when my husband nudged me and told me to look closely. There were bugs all in the vegetables. I don't think they were from being outside because none of the other food had bugs. I think whoever brought the platter either didn't notice the vegetables were full of bugs, or didn't care.

Chili with a sock in it. An actual sock. She called it “dirty sock chili.” I don’t think anyone tried it.

My sister would bring 2 crockpots …. 1 with spaghetti sauce… the other with water and the noodles. The noodles would be cooking in the water all day.

She opened a can of tiny shrimp and poured it out, liquid and all, on top of a block of cream cheese. That was it. I guess we were supposed to eat it with crackers.
