We eat with our eyes first. But sometimes, our eyes witness such horrors that we don't even feel like eating at all. Food is supposed to be appetizing and look the part while doing it. Why then, do some people cook up stuff that could be straight from Hell's kitchen? We aren't talking about the neighborhood in Manhattan. Nor are we referring to Gordon Ramsay's reality show. What we are addressing is the issue of so-called "dishes" straight from the depths of Hell.

Think apple and mayo sandwiches, fish tacos where the taco part is a fish's head - teeth and all, hot dog water jello with chunks of hot dog suspended in it. You get the awful picture... If that wasn't enough to put you off, there's an entire food-shaming community dedicated to calling out "creations" that people had the audacity to come up with. Cursed Food is a wall of posts bound to test your gag reflexes, and Bored Panda has put together a list of the best, or should we say worst.

    Honestly, it's probably not so much outright "disgusting" as it is "gaggingly overly sweet". I used to drink a lot of those energy drinks when I was working at a grocery store during the pandemic, and they're almost all universally cloyingly sweet. Pour that over sugary candy rainbow ribbon and you've just got liquid sugar on top of solid sugar XD I'm not saying it'll be tasty, mind you, but less inherently vomituous than, say, a chocolate-covered pickle.

    Bakeries cut bread this way to make rolled, filled sandwiches for fancy tea parties and the like. It is also sometimes dyed pastel colours for these events. You won't find this in your average grocery store's bread aisle, but it's not that odd. (What can be odd, however, is mixing and matching the spreads and filling into unexpected combinations, which I may or may not have participated in when helping to cater as a teenager. Tuna salad and maraschino cherries was, obviously, a bad idea).
