    Your worst food experience?
    What is the worst thing that has happened as a result of food?

    Me? The after effects of uber spicy ramen noodles if you know what I mean. I thought I was dying.

    I was invited to a barbecue at my friend's house when I was about 14. There was a hair in the burger and I only noticed when it was in my mouth so I had to pull it out, it is making me feel sick just thinking about it. I had to quickly wrap the burger in tissue and put it in my pocket, then go to the toilet and flush it down lol. I have a massive phobia of hair in food now, just the texture of it and it being in your mouth, makes me shiver, and it puts me off eating for days. I am probably over-reacting but I can't help it.

    Rarely had anyone cook for me since then, apart from Christmas dinner one year when I reluctantly agreed to eat dinner, then the same thing happened again, this time with stuffing . That was the final straw for me I'm afraid.

    I have not let anyone cook a meal for me now in about 4-5 years, I cook everything myself. Cutlery gets double-checked and wiped with tissue just to be safe.

    Also when I was in primary school, I remember being very nervous in the canteen in my first few weeks, and didn't want to eat, so the dinner ladies would sit me down at the table until I was the last person in the canteen and force me to eat my food and tell me how I was wasting my parent's money. I hated that. :mad:

    I tried what was dubbed as the Worlds hottest chilli sauce at a food show. My mouth was on fire for the rest of the day, couldn't taste a single thing after it.

    i was a fatty and re-defrosted [if that's a word?] mint ice cream and i was throwing up around 7 times a day for a whole week
    it was my 16th birthday week as well!
    when i was little my mates brother made us crumpets but he just came back from football practice and his hands were mucky and i felt rude saying anything and not eating it so i forced it down and still have bad memories and can't stand to look at a crumpet!

    Dining in the Mortmain Mountains, near the Slippery Slope. Unfortunately al fresco dining takes a new level entirely.
