Have you Ever encountered a Food that was hard to Swallow ...

[Dax]

... but you didn’t want to offend someone?

[Din Djarin]

No, I don't mind offending people

[SpaceMan]

i didnt like most of my grandmothers cooking

Eggs benedict. I ate it out of guilt once, it quickly exited my system shortly after.

Don't guilt eat, kids

Not specifically, but I've definitely eaten some bland or plain bad food. If someone asks for my actual chef opinion on their cooking I will be honest. But most times that's not what people want. They like their own cooking. "MMmmmmmm!!!! This is delicious! isn't this delicious?"

What am I supposed to say?

[SpaceMan]

you reminded me of people showing baby pictures

society just doesnt allow us to say god damn thats an ugly one...all kids have to be cute

I bought a Vegan Burger for like $12 and I didn't want to offend myself so I suffered through it.


In terms of not offending someone else, I had a Cameroonian roommate and he cooked traditional African food for us one night and the main dish was really delicious but there was some side dish that was like this ball, that was spicy and didn't have much flavor, I went super slow with that stuff to make sure I had something to wash it down between bites.

When I was working in Morocco I went to a Party with some Filipinos (they were lovely People and Treated a bit like slaves there ) we had Beer and someone gave me a dish and said "Go help yourself to some food " in one pot was kind of a whole fish looking at me so I said "think I just fancy some Vegetables "sure in the other pot " opened it and there were Vegies of all Kind but Cooking with a Big Bone Off something Because I didn't Eat I got So Fucking Drunk I nearly passed out


Because they were so nice to me I used to take them to Dunkin Doughnuts every Friday after work for a Coffee and a sandwich

You're lucky it wasn't balut

crow never tastes good

i eat it when i have to though

[Undies]

Not really, I've eaten subpar food out of politeness, but not something so bad it was hard to get down.

I have had food that was literally hard to swallow. I remember one time in particular, I had a donut when my mouth was already dry, and I literally couldn't form enough saliva to actually get it down. Finally I managed to grab some cider or something and got it swallowed, but it was like 5 to 10 minutes of chewing first.

I feel like this thread is designed for one type of joke reply

Yeah I guess !
I had a friend there called Juan and When it was my Birthday he came to my room with Six cans of beer some roasted nuts and a 1 Lb block of Cheese He said "Lets party " I introduced him to Peter Tosh's Music and Deacon Blue he loved it

[Beach Ball Bitch]

Yes, and to be polite I ate them. It was grasshoppers in my salad. I liked a guy once who asked me for a drink in the day. I hate coffee. Went to the bathroom and a coffee was waiting for me. It was awful and I drank it fast so that I didn’t have to sip it over and over. He thought I was trying to leave and I offended him anyways.

[Youfreeme]

I won't force myself to eat something I hate. I grew up being force fed all sorts of food that I found revolting, and always had to clean my plate, even if I wasn't hungry. Now, I eat when I'm hungry and don't feel obligated to eat things I don't like. My body isn't a garbage can, sorry.

[SpaceMan]
