Jello Salad
Written by Reddit user Altrano:
Some of the Jello salads out there. Green Jello with carrots (and sometimes raisins) is an abomination. Also, whatever the hell my mom used to make with cottage cheese and orange jello.My family had this weird notion that if you put healthy stuff in Jello that it was a side dish and not a dessert. Nope, you just ruined two foods by making unnatural combinations with them. Mom never did come across a Jello recipe that she thought was a bad idea though.

I have the soap gene for cilantro, so I had my fiancé try a bit (raw) to tell me what it tasted like. Does it really just taste like grass for people without my curse?

Marmite

Marmite.There’s literally a series of adverts made by the company where the whole premise is ‘This shit tastes so terrible that even the slightest scraping will make you vomit.’ They’re not even pretending anymore. It’s not a food as much as it is an inter-office dare to see just what nasty bullshit they can convince people to eat.
