Mrs Binners has just bought this:

I'm weighing up whether this constitutes grounds for divorce? Why would somebody do something like that? WHY?!!

So let's have your nominations for stuff that is meant to edible but amounts to a war crime in your opinion

I spotted that the other day. I'm quite tempted.

You want to get some of this, Mrs Binners will be all over you like a tramp on chips.

Those poor, poor chickpeas.

What about snotty chicken in a can?

"HOME STYLE GOODNESS" - cripes.

At least they've fully cooked it to be fair.

Bin bins - do you like both marmite and hummus separately or are you one of those weirdos?

Intrigued by the combination.....

It's all the processed shizzle isn't it....I give you crab sticks.

Honourable mention to the old SIS gels that if allowed to dribble on eating looks like you've given someone a happy ending.

Greggs cheese and bean melts

...or, as my 15 year old son calls them, "They mad bean'n'cheez hings"

He's addicted to them.

Beaten to it on microwave burgers, saw a couple piling them into their trolley in our local Tesco last night.
The wife's comment was that her Son had eaten 4 that day already, yack!

Spam.
Corned beef, unless in pie or hash, is equally vile.
As for crab sticks mentioned ^^^ shudders.

Rice cakes. To make something so awful and then name it after actual delicious cake? Twisted evil Bastards.

Like all sane people, I don't regard either as edible. The Greeks invented hummus to deal with their surplus tiling grout, by adding some garlic to it and rebranding it as food. Marmite is harvested from under the devils toenails

It’s all the processed shizzle isn’t it….I give you crab sticks.

She loves those vile abominations too. Looking at this, now, she's got awful taste. That explains why she married me then

Okra. I will eat practically anything (that canned chicken notwithstanding), but okra... *shudders*

Oysters, mussels, cockles, whelks etc.

If i'm going to eat an animal, it needs to have had a face.

I struggle to forget it. I’d rather eat several tins of burger/pizza toast than Parma Violet Cheshire cheese (I have tried it, bought it as a joke present for mrsTH, tastes as bad as you’d imagine)

Spam.

I'll raise you Spam Fritters. Must have been a Lanarkshire thing to have them for school dinners. I can still feel the grease over 35 years later.

Nope, had them a couple of weeks ago, in Yorkshire. Salty battered meat(ish)y deliciousness.

I'm pretty open in food, will happily eat most things in truth, however...
Peanuts, though I accept that they could kill me makes me somewhat biased against them.
Taramasalata, vile stuff.

PP +1

Malvernrider - if an engineer or some similar sort had dirty finger nails I say fine, but a man (Who knows?) holding cheese with hands like that? I'd puke before you mentioned maggots, and then again for good measure.

Cucumber is utterly pointless green water gone wrong, not sure what might be right about green water mind you.

Sweet Sue and her canned chicken can stay over the pond keeping the trumpsters happy, we don't need that kinda nonsense here thank you very much

I used to pay 70p for one of these on a barm/muffin/roll etc. with chips. From the college refectory when I was doing my HND back in the late 80s. Loved 'em!

Why did I open this while I’m eating my breakfast?

for me it has to be floral gums. Sweets that taste like soap, but aren’t a joke. I don’t understand.

thay said, I’d eat them long before I opened a tin of spam.

I don't think I can beat any of the above, but I did see today that you can now also get

but I think it will be nicer than Marmite houmous. Just.

I wondered if anyone had spotted that particular evil. Marmite and peanut butter is all kinds of wrong.
Only thing to make it worse would be to add it to sprouts

Marmite goes without saying, utterly vile.

Blancmange (this includes the various commercial variants like Angels Delight) - congealed vomit with chemical flavouring (in the case of AD)

Crab sticks. Holy hell...

Corned Beef? No way - corned beef and brown sauce sarnies. Or corned beer, salad and salad cream sarnies. Yum.

I love Marmite. I love peanut butter. I could happily eat either from the jar with a spoon.

On a previous "strange food combos you like" thread Marmite & peanut butter was suggested several times so I tried it. It was utterly revolting.

Indeed. Corned beef and beetroot butties are a personal favourite

I've had one of those microwave Rustler burgers, just tasted like a McDonald's cheeseburger to me.

Nutella - I like chocolate, I like hazelnuts but something is so wrong about Nutella.

As of Sunday just gone, this

[img] [/img]

Oh, why does a tiny little bottle of innocent ginger kick deserve to be sent to hell I hear you ask....

Well, innocent seem to think it’s ok to put red peppers INTO A CHUFFIN DRINK..... Now, as I’m someone who has a rather nasty intolerance to peppers I make sure I check the ingredients of all foodstuffs I buy..... Yes, foodstuffs, not a CHUFFIN DRINK!

So after taking one small sip of this ginger shot on Sunday I’ve been turning myself inside out on the toilet since....Had to take a sick day yesterday ffs..... I probably only drank 20ml, I can still taste it

In Spain, we had what was translated as pigs trotters which conjured up ideas of something like a lamb shank but crispy and porky. No, it was a ball of slime glazed in something brown. That's all it was. I was wretching at the sight of it, and I like floral gums, marmite and hummus. Even cockles and such like. But not oysters - they're like fishy Spanish pigs trotters.
