What's the grossest recipe you've ever had?

For me, it would be Honey Boo Boo's "sketti". My friend Ashley and his older brother made it one night as a joke - they wanted to see what it tasted like. I was there to try it, and it was awful. It's like a heart attack on a plate. There was still a quarter of the dish left after we ate our portions, so we put the rest in the compost bin.
 
Well, usually I cook pretty well, but when I first started cooking I decided to make ramen. Not only did I decide to make ramen, but me in my n00bness of cooking decided that it would be a good idea to combine two different ramen recipes with two different portion sizes (and thus two different measurements even for the same ingredients, let alone the different ones).

It was absolutely disgusting. I tried to save that ramen for like three days, adding different stuff to it in a vain attempt to make it taste good. I eventually gave up and threw it away. My next attempt at ramen came out fifteen bazillion times better. ^@__@^;; (BECAUSE I FOLLOWED THE BLOODY RECIPE orz )
 
I'm generally a good cook. Whenever I experiment it turns out pretty good if not delicious (a couple of times I've even had my mom ask me to show her how to make what I came up with~).

However... one night I wanted ramen, but I also did not want ramen. So I stored away the flavor packet and added a bunch of random things from the spice cabinet (basically all we have is garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, paprika, and salt/pepper because my grandparents don't like the taste of flavor; they don't even use anything beyond salt and pepper). It was not good. It was very not good. I refused to eat pasta for a week after that mess.
 
One time in a Boy Scouts meeting, we had a contest to see which patrol could cook the best soup. My patrol decided to saturate the soup in spices (at least ten different kinds) so it was horrible. Another patrol won with a much simpler recipe.
 
Tostadas with black beans. It's not the tortilla shell, cheese or meat that I'd hate (in fact, I love those three), but I hate veggies (I have autism, so texture sensitivity is a tad higher than normal peoples'). The one day my home worker wanted me to make new recipes, she pretty much FORCED me to buy a jar of them at Wal-Mart despite my insistence. And made me eat the tostada with beans.
 
I tried to make gravy the way my mom makes it using turkey broth. Unfortunately, I burned the flour while making it and it tasted horrible with an even worst aftertaste. It was so terrible that I remember the taste to this day.
 
I always have bad experiences with cheese on the stove. The first time I tried to make broccoli cheddar soup and it tasted good but it was grainy ugh. I also cannot make homemade mac and cheese for the same reason. -_-

Are you using flour for either of those? If you add a little bit at a time and stir like a maniac it should be less grainy (also might try sifting the flour first so it doesn't clump).
 
In the infinite wisdom of being probably 4 years old, I decided it would be a good idea to create "the Sandwich": lunch meat, cheese, pickles, chocolate sauce and whipped cream. The fact that I still remember that particular sandwich should tell you how bad it was.
 
One time I decided to make a pizza using American cheese because I didn't have any mozzarella, or cheddar or parmesan. It was... horrrible. I also attempted to make a pizza using oatmeal for the crust because I didn't have any wheat flour and again it was a total disaster. :v
 
I'm a horrible cook. The worst meal I've ever made is some slimy porridge that I somehow created while attempting to make fried rice.
 
There's that one time where something went wrong with my spaggheti and they were stuck together like one huge spaggheti mass. My parents called it Spaggheti Pie :( It tasted worse than regular spaggheti but was still good enough and edible :p
 
My parents called it "SOS" - S**** on a Shingle." It was bread and sausage gravy. I've had it once and that was it.
 
Definitely the worst thing I've ever made is my one and only attempt at custard pie. The crust I did surprisingly great on. The filing however turned into this weird combination of scrambled eggs and soup.
