Low Moments In Personal Culinary History

When I was younger I would make A1 and butter sandwiches. Got the idea after using a dinner roll to clear my plate of remaining A1 sauce after finishing steak once.
 
this is not the worst, actually it ended up being fucking delicious. I took a chili dog from weinerschnitzel, stuffed it with cheetos, and wrapped a slice of pizza around it.


i saw god that day
 
wanted to make pizza, but didn't have a base for it. so i just made a base of egg, like an oversized omelette.

wait a minute... that was AWESOME. sorry wrong thread!
 
I was about to move, I was out of money, and all I had in the house was White rice and Ranch dressing.

So I ate white rice with ranch dressing for a week.
 
Yeah. I used to eat nice cheeses. Now I'll find myself going to the fridge for just a slice or two of Kraft Singles.

Man. That sounds way more pathetic than it feels.

I've been doing this since I was a little kid. I'd always be starving and beg my mom for some food before dinner was ready, and if she took mercy on me, I'd get to eat a single slice of cheese.
 
but for real in college I used to come home to my dorm stoned pretty often and eat my roommate's granola bars. either he never found out or was too much of a gentleman to put me on blast
 
I have read nothing in this thread I wouldn't try, except for the frozen steak that ended up in the microwave. In fact I've already done like a third of the things here. And some things I don't find gross at all. Peanut butter / honey sandwich is awesome. Cold Spaghetti-O's straight from a can? I'd eat that in front of co-workers and be proud of it. In fact I've eaten cold Dinty Moore beef stew from a can right in front of my co-workers during lunchbreak and was proud of it. Same with Stagg Chili.

Ya'll are a bunch of snobs for looking down on that.
 
Dump cheese between two tortillas and microwave

Quesadilla. Eat with tapatio.


Edit:

Dump black beans in bowl microwave and pour tapatio on it. Lol that was probably the worst.
 
lowest low? i once opened a two-day old box of room temperature pizza and ate a slice. yes, i regretted it, and yes it was delicious.

*edit* oh, made and ate. uh, a pickle sandwich. also regrettable.
 
Kraft American cheese, with Miracle Whip spread over it, and then cut into tiny squares, which I would eat one at a time. I did this from ages 6 to 10, probably. And like the dude above, Ez Cheez straight from the can. No idea what the hell I was thinking.
 
Everyone eats Kraft singles by themselves. How many is considered being a disgusting piece of shit?
you are a disgusting piece of shit when you can put the whole cheese^2 block in your mouth. quantity may have little to do with it, though we should probably draw the line at whatever 5X the serving size is.
 
One time during winter my fridge wasn't working so I stored my chinese leftovers outside. Forgot about it for three days and in a moment of hunger I remembered it. I microwaved the beef and broccoli and ate up. I didn't get sick so I guess it was okay.
 
It wasn't a poor product, but I did nearly manage to burn my apartment down by going through the motions making a usual recipe, forget a step and proceed to pour cold water directly into a pan full of boiling hot oil.
 
When I was a kid I used to eat ketchup on english muffins. Yep.

Also my friend's favorite sandwich as a kid was peanut butter/mayonaise/mustard.
 
I once mixed a can of Rotel with a can of corn and heated it up in a saucepan, thinking that it would make some kind of awesome salsa mixture. It was pretty disappointing, to say the least.
 
Was making mac and cheese, realized there was no more milk, had the bright idea of using coconut milk instead. Blergh :(

My brother once destroyed the kitchen trying to make instant ramen. And it came out horrible lol
 
Almost all happened freshman year of college:

Roommate buys burger, stashes it in fridge only to rediscover some time later. While he eats it, other roommate comments on the lettuce looking weird. Roommate only then realizes that the burger didn't come with lettuce, what he saw was mold.

Roommate is out of all sorts of receptacles in which to make Easy Mac, only thing left are plastic Dixie cups, so he throws the stuff in it and pops it in the microwave. When he takes it out, the cup had shrank down to a bowl shape and the mac reeked of plastic.

Guy down the hall doesn't understand the concept of boiling water, so he puts water in the kettle, puts the kettle in the microwave, and proceeds to set the kitchen area ablaze.

Roommate is boiling eggs, forgets about them, comes back to find that the water all boiled off and he burnt his eggs. Ate them anyway.

Friend is in that awkward period between the last days of class and going home, where you try to live off of what you have in the fridge because buying groceries is annoying and wasteful. During the last couple days he eats a pickle wrapped in a Kraft single.

My lowest point was probably eating a huge bag of gummy worms for breakfast, lunch and dinner during finals.
 
does anyone here fuck heavily with michelina's?

holy shit, that brings me back. its been years since ive had one, but i used to eat them regularly back in the day. as a teenager i ate constantly (i guess thats not that uncommon) and i think my parents more or less gave up on trying to feed me real food and just kept a ton of crap in teh house so when i was hungry an hour after dinner i could take care of myself.

my answer to this thread was going to be the time i was making homemade pasta with my girlfriend and accidentally used confectioners sugar rather than flour. that doesnt go through the pasta press all that well. its not really an example since we didnt eat it because it was basically an uncookable ball of goo.
 
That was a terrible game of basketball (Spurs vs OKC).

So, my sisters used to eat Vicks Vaporub. They would hide under the dining room table and eat the stuff. Even after being punished. I figured that if they would risk being punished and *STILL* eat the stuff, it must be good.

It's not.

To this day, they still cannot explain to me the appeal.

It's an acquired taste, far too refined for the palate of a hapless dilettante
 
I was once deployed out into the field for training. Someone left some BBQ chicken wings out overnight. The next morning they were cold and crawling with ants. I ate them.
 
One Thanksgiving I didn't go home from school and I had to break into the fraternity kitchen and all there was to eat was American cheese and crackers. Some friends showed up and we took a road trip and got drunk and I puked it all over the side of the car.
