    - Hair in your food, especially if its not your own (found a hair in my soup in the work canteen once, was quite vile)
    - Having a tiny bit of tinfoil left in your food which you crunch down on

    my worst food moments are sickening thoughts!
    First time i had 8 hot-dogs with ketchup...
    Last episode lots and lots of maccheroni with cheese
    Well they both ended with me going into my mums bedroom at night, tell my mum "hey, i'm gonna throw up" and then explode right on her bedside without reaching the bathroom...
    what a stupid kid i am!

    Biting into a Kit Kat to realise it's solid.

    Delving your spoon expectantly into a Chocolate Fondant only to realise it's overcooked, and the gooey centre is solid sponge.

    Cutting a chicken kiev in half, expecting the cascade of delicious golden greasy elixir, and realising the garlic butter has evaporated due to overcooking.
    That's the best food moment!! I wish they would make kit kats as solid bars :coma:

    putting ready meals in the oven, taking them out, realising how soft the plastic is and watching your food fall to the floor. goodbye dinner.

    Oh yeah, opening up a packet of Rich Tea Biscuits only to have to go about ten down the packet because the preceding ones have broken into Rich Tea Dust.



    HOW DID YOU GET LIKE THAT. I WAS SO CAREFUL GETTING YOU HOME.

    I swear the supermarkets employ people to jump up and down on the biscuit packets :p:


    Just thought of another worst food moment, carrying in my lovely plate of spaghetti bolognese and bending down to pick a fork up, not realising I'm holding the plate at an angle and then watching in horror as the entire plateful slides off onto the floor

    Making a cup of tea, then seeing weird white flecks in it. Figure the cup wasn't cleaned properly, re-make cup of tea. Same thing happens. Check the milk - it's off.............

    I have never been so disappointed.
    THIS. Mornings have been ruined like this.

    Its just not as exciting though nor is it the same, a kit kat chunky solid is about ten times more solid chocolate than a yorkie.
    Besides last time I bought a yorkie the self service machine broke the second I scanned it in.
    s'cause the self service machine knows that yorkies aren't for girls

    When you come home starving, can't wait for dinner only to find out its one of your least favourite dishes - cabbage and cauliflower

    When you deny sauce on your chips in the shop, rush home so the chips dont get cold, open the fridge then realise that someones finished the last of the ketchup :eek:

    You then proceed to search for any remaining slithers of ketchup on the inside of the bottle, wondering what the hell has happened to your life...

    I once had an apple that was perfectly shiny and round on the outside, and as soon as I bit into it it was a pool of brown, wet
    mush. Nice

    When you have made a pizza, put it on a plate only to then trip on the rug and catapult the pizza into a wall where it then slides down completely ruined, leaving a huuuuuge tomatoey pizza sauce stain that won't come off and you have to explain it to your parents.

    "Why is there blood on the walls?"
    "Why was that your first assumption?!?!"

    One time this happened to me with a KitKat Chunky.

    Best day of my life I tell you.

    In primary school, I got a jacket potato for school dinner. I should have been suspicious when the lady took it out the tray, 'cause it was already open and they usually have to cut it open for you. Not this time.

    I looked in it when I got back to my table and there was something in it that exactly resembled a mouse crap in shape, colour and size.
    A few days previously we were told that there had been some rats near the school kitchens.

    I didn't eat the potato.

    Even worse you make noodles, they are plain and ready to be covered in sweet chilli sauce, you open the fridge to discover its not there and you find out someone dropped it on the floor and failed to inform you. argh.

    Tell me about it should of learned by now to check the bread but I still dont

    Eurgh squid ring bet thats devastating, I hate sea food.
    And then you wonder how skanky it would be to scrape the mould off....but mould really freaks me out so I can never do it!

    Yeah I hate sea food aswell! I was chewing it and my cousin pointed to the sign saying "squid rings" with the most malicious grin on his face. Spat it straight out!

    When you put a bit of food into your mouth only to realize that it's burning your mouth and you desperately want to spit it out but you can't because you're at a restaurant

    One time I had takeaway chips with sweet and sour sauce and I didn't realize that the sauce was leaking out the takeaway box onto the floor of the shop that I was in at the time

    When you pick up some food with your fork and you're just about to put it in your mouth, the food falls off the fork onto your lap or plate... awkward

    Once when I was in primary school I was eating my lunch and I was cutting my chicken and I cut it a bit too violently and the whole tray shot off the table. Most disappointing thing ever.

    1) Poor quality hot chocolate and you're stuck with LOADS of dry paste at the bottom of the mug. Bleurgh.
    2) Going in for the chocolate cookie then realising its raisin :'( Nothing against raisin cookies but damn I'd got my hopes up!
    3) My sister cooked a pizza once without taking the plastic bottom off. It melted on to the pizza and DAMN that tasted bad. (we didn't notice until trying it )
    4) Being offered a Celebration/Quality street/Roses and there are only your least favourite ones left.
    5) Buying a sausage roll from a fancy pastry shop in france and finding out it has an actual cheapy hot dog sausage in it. Uber let down.
    Also most choices from buffets are misleading and let downs.
