One of my absolute favorite things is having a picnic with my friends. Setting up camp on a blanket in a park on a warm, sunny day and sharing delicious treats we’ve prepared at home feels like the perfect way to bond with loved ones. Well, it did feel like that. But now I’m starting to have trust issues because I’ve just taken a trip to the This Is Why I Don’t Do Potlucks Facebook Group, and I’ve completely lost my appetite. 

Below, you'll find some of the most unsettling and disgusting food photos that might make you swear off picnics and potlucks, as well as an interview with the group's creator Sarah Slabodnik. From questionable cooking methods to dishes that look like one-way tickets to salmonella city, this list has it all. If you don’t want the experience of sharing food with your pals to be ruined, I would run now, pandas. But if your stomach can handle these horrifying pics, be sure to upvote the ones that have convinced you to eat before going to your next potluck!

They make a fruit salad with mayo but I don't eat it. My mom used to make pineapple mayo sandwiches, which sounds awful, but i liked it as a kid.

I'm a Canadian, and remember visiting the U.S South and its restaurants." Want mayonnaise on that?" was a question regarding so many of the food items that I requested.

If you’re not familiar with this unappetizing corner of the internet, let me get you acquainted with This Is Why I Don’t Do Potlucks. This group was created in September of 2020 and has amassed an impressive 153k members since then. There’s even an adorable poem on the group’s “about” page giving members an idea of what horrible photos they’re about to find lurking in the group, “Potlucks are something that I do not do, it should be so simple, just sharing some stew… Cooks that reek of the cigarettes they smoke, or they smell like cat pee so much that you choke, I’ve seen turds in a pot where a toddler shat right in the kitchen is where that pot sat.” Charming, right?

Well, lucky for us, we were able to get in touch with the creator of this group that’s caused potluck-phobia to run rampant on the internet, Sarah Slabodnik. Sarah was previously interviewed by Bored Panda the last time we featured her group as well, but she was kind enough to provide some updates on how the page is doing now. Previously when we spoke with Sarah, she explained how this shocking and unsettling page started: it was actually born as a spin-off of another Facebook group she runs called Messy Houses You Zoom In To See The Background Of

    I was at a place and they had a guy that would take the coffee pots into the bathroom and clean them in the sink. They didn't understand why everyone was upset when they found out they were using the brush kept under the sink! They had been doing it for years!! Thank God I don't drink coffee.

    “We were getting so many gross food prep areas posted [on Messy Houses You Zoom In To See The Background Of] that someone suggested making a separate group just for that,” Sarah told Bored Panda. “We got the title from the most common type of comment on those kinds of posts, which was that this was why people didn't trust food from a potluck.”

    ADVERTISEMENT

    The creator of the group also went on to share a bit about what the community of This Is Why I Don’t Do Potlucks is like. “It's mostly people from the States, but I bet many of our members would be surprised to know our group was created by a Canadian,” Sarah noted. “I think a lot of people are drawn to our group because they'll have had a bad experience with a potluck, food poisoning for example, and they're happy to find there are more potluck weary people out there."

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "Some join because they love potlucks and don't understand why we don't," she added. "After a quick scroll on our page, they start to understand, and soon they become people who no longer do potlucks."

    True story. My grandmother was frail and loopy, so when I moved out my parents gave me her stove. My uncle is an electrician, he said it's an excellent stove, made in the days when things were built to last. However, when I cleaned it, I found something that looked like a shrivelled-up grape twig stuck behind the bottom drawer under the oven. Then I realized the twig ended in a claw.

    True story.. In England, my sister turned on the gas broiler, prepped a grilled cheese sandwich, pulled the broiler pan out and almost fainted... There was a live mouse, steaming from the heat! She dropped the pan and the mouse staggered away, but her cat saw it and scampered over and grabbed it.. She picked up the cat, swatted it to make it drop the mouse and put it outside the kitchen and closed the door! Gingerly, she picked up the traumatized mouse with a dish towel and walked it over to the side door which was located on a narrow street. She carefully put the mouse down and watched it try to scamper away.. only to have a car drive down the street and run over the mouse.. It was years before the movie 'Final Destination' hit the circuit.. But every time I think of that mouse I think of that movie... When it's your time, it's your time...

    I work in my dads bait and tackle shop from time to time and this has happened on more than one occasion. Its a nightmare as they get into and under EVERYTHING! And there is no way to clean them all up and In the warmer weather a few days later you have 100's of flys. You put powdered maize or ground bait in with them so they stay dry. As soon as they get wet they climb. You can also get pinkies- (small pink maggots.) Bronze maggots (that are coloured with turmeric), white (obvs), red and squats (which are shorter and fatter)

    As far as how the page has changed since the last time we spoke with Sarah, she shared that the group has gained an impressive 25k new members in about six months. “There were also a lot of complaints from members about fly egg posts, so we took a poll in the group and decided to dedicate one pinned announcement to fly eggs,” the administrator went on to explain, referencing posts that were apparently quite common the last time we spoke with her. “Now members can only post fly egg pictures on that post, so they don't show up on member's newsfeeds anymore.”

    We were also curious if there were any new trends emerging in the group. “One thing that comes up often and goes way beyond your typical potluck food is urine therapy,” Sarah told Bored Panda. “If you're a consenting adult who wants to drink their own urine, that's one thing, but some people are sneaking urine into other people's food or drink without their consent. That's assault, not to mention disgusting,” she explained. “We had a post recently where a parent was sneaking her urine into her child's popsicles in order for the child to do well at school.”

    Go by the smell. Meat goes grey when it oxidises, when exposed to air, it doesn't mean it's unsafe to eat. Sliminess and stench are the two big ways nature warns you not to eat it.

    Eggs can be kept out for more than a day and be fine...some dont even store theirs in the fridge. Lunch meat has sooo much salt in it that a day will not make too much of a difference..and, of course, water does not spoil. This was a very different scenario...already discounted, lightly packaged butchered meat left in a truck for over 2 days is not quite the same as some processed, salted packaged meat, water and eggs for a day.

    Sadly, this no longer qualifies as "meat". It is now carrion. Take it out of town and chuck it into the field for the buzzards. (Pun intended)

    “A great (and non urine related) post from a few days ago mentioned that [someone had] found a bottle of Salon Selectives hair spray from the 90's in their parents' kitchen, marked with a piece of masking tape stating the contents were teriyaki sauce,” Sarah added.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    And although she loves being an administrator for this terrifying Facebook group, Sarah previously shared with Bored Panda that it’s not always a walk in the park. “There are some recurring debates in our group, like whether or not it's acceptable to prepare food in a sink for example, and members are quick to pick their side and stick to it,” she explained. “Members can debate the food as much as they want, but if anyone gets out of line and starts criticizing other members instead of the food, we don't put up with that."

    Jessica, bless you for wanting to give the benefit of the doubt, but sometimes, there is no mental or physical illness involved...some are just plain nasty and lazy. I worked with a lady like that...perfectly lovely woman, but when I went to her mobile home to pick her up one night for girls night drinks...I was stunned to find it incredibly filthy. She just said she has always "hated cleaning" to please "excuse the mess". It was awful and I never went back. Some people just do not mind living in filth...no "illness" required.

    "Shame food, not people" is the number one rule of This Is Why I Don’t Do Potlucks. Members are encouraged to share any photos of disgusting or shocking meals or food prep areas, but the admins make it clear that bullying and discrimination of any kind are not tolerated. Members are also asked to block out faces and names when submitting a post. Another important rule is that videos where food is wasted for entertainment purposes are not permitted. Especially nowadays, when there are so many people out there struggling to put food on the table, wasting food for comedic effect or entertainment value is tasteless and tone deaf.

    Gotta ask, other than the mental notion of smelly feet and clean dishes what is wrong with this? Unless your dishwasher is defective and doesn't get things clean everything should be fine. Your dirty dishes are more likely to leave specks of food on your shoes than your shoes hurting your dishes.

    And although running this group has made Sarah more weary of potlucks in general, she confessed to Bored Panda that she actually did end up attending one in January. “The next morning I felt unwell, and the only person I could blame was myself,” she admitted. “If anyone should have known better, it's me. Most of the food was delicious going down, I just wished it had stayed there. It's so hard to trust food that others have made.”

    I'm the first to admit I know nothing of canning. I know people do it to preserve food. If properly done, and properly stored, SHOULD canned foods last decades? D: Are they reasonably safe? The apples look absolutely horrifying and I don't know if I could get past the visuals of this myself, but if they're just faded/weird-looking but safe, then so be it XD EDIT: I just read a 40-page guide to home canning by the USDA. XD They recommend not storing home-canned food for more than a year.

    Sarah had previously explained to Bored Panda that it’s not only the posts that put members off of potlucks, it can also be the comments from others. "We had a post about someone displaying their cooked bacon next to their raw bacon for size comparison,” Sarah went on to note. “The problem was that they were putting the cooked bacon where the raw bacon was, so now their cooked bacon was contaminated. Many members commented that you actually don't need to cook bacon. Many other members, including me, were shocked. Shouldn't it be common sense that you have to cook bacon before you serve it? Apparently not. Common sense is not common when it comes to safe food handling."

    Not to judge, but this could be the kitchen of someone struggling with mental health, by old age or partially sighted. I’ve been at this stage not long ago where I simply could not give a rats backside about anything and used the same plate and mug for weeks on end. The laundry built up too to such an extent that I had nothing left to wear. Feel as if you’ve not got any reason to struggle with life? You certainly don’t worry about the state of your house.

    “If you do go to a potluck, there are a few tips that seem to work well,” Sarah shared with Bored Panda. “You can bring your own dish and only eat that, you can only eat food that people have bought prepared to bring. Make sure you're first in the line to get food (less likely someone will have handled it, coughed or sneezed on it by the time you get there), claim you're on a diet, claim you have dietary restrictions, eat before you go or tell them the last time you ate insert questionable food here you got ill.”

    “I think ignorance can be bliss when it comes to potlucks,” Sarah added. “It's all fun and games until you find pet fur in the icing or part of a fake fingernail in the burgers. Or until you're so ill that you can't even keep water down.” Honestly, these photos aren’t just giving me the heebie-jeebies when it comes to potlucks, I’m questioning all food that I haven’t prepared myself. When visiting a friend’s apartment, how clean is their kitchen? When eating out in a restaurant, how do I know the staff values cleanliness and personal hygiene? New phobia: activated.

    Funny anecdote: when I was a kid (12? 13?) I went to a friend's sleepover birthday party. I was the only girl there (this was the 90s, and I was "one of the boys", zero interest in em other than as friends). The whole group of us stayed up late, way past when the friend's parents went to bed. One group of kids were playing Magic: The Gathering in a side room. Another group was playing hide and seek in the dark. My best friend and I decided to explore our friend's house. We snuck into the garage. There were jars of homemade pickles brining next to the water heater. We were baffled. We'd never seen homemade pickles... and in a garage?! We dared a third friend to open one of the jars and try a "pickle". Turns out, they were VERY early on in the pickling process and still mostly cucumbers at that point XD Third friend put the bitten cucumber BACK INTO THE JAR. We never told anyone XD I wonder what my friend's parents thought when they went to open their pickles months later and saw one with a bite taken out...

    My late former father inlaw was the county coroner. He was called to the local pickle factory to declare a third shift employee dead that had fallen into a massive vat of pickles, drowned, and been found there by the first shift employees. I was told in confidence that the company refused to drain the vat, toss the pickles, and clean it, due to the financial loss, after the body had been retrieved.

    Your mistake, OP, was to put them in the freezer in the store packaging. If you’d removed them from that packaging, and put them in vacuum sealed bags—-remember to write the date you stored them on the bag!—-before storing them in the freezer, they might still be OK after a a year and a half, as long as your freezer never lost power and thawed out. We have a good sized chest freezer, and whenever meat and other frozen/freezable stuff goes on sale or comes out of the garden, we put it there. We’ve eaten steaks and chicken that have been frozen, in vacuum sealed bags, for up to two years, and have obviously lived to tell the story.

    If it's a hard cheese, and only a couple spots, it's still usable. But this is too much. Also, if it's soft cheese you can't use it, that should be tossed.

    To be fair, nothing bad should be in the tank part of the toilet. This is more how we get yucked out by things without there being a good reason. However, I don't think that heater and the plastic parts of the toilet workings are going to go together well.

    Sure you can, I've done it many times with many foods with no change in the food. This is another of those myths that needs to die. Some meats will get tougher but there's nothing dangerous.

    Depends on timing. As long as the temp is under 41F then bacterial growth is still inhibited. Refreezing meat will make the texture all weird, but if you're eating bagged chicken nuggets I think you've already given up on gourmet dining.

    You've hit the nail right on the old head there, Marie. How odd that ignoring the Life Basics in school, such as cooking and, yeah, even sewing, has consequences that could kill you in Real Life. I'm not a great cook, but I know enough to keep my family alive, which shouldn't be the "win" it is these days. Lots of stuff could kill ya, but my refrozen chicken nuggets aren't taking you out, lol!

    From USA Today: Refrigerator-thawed, raw or cooked meat is safe to refreeze, though the U.S. Department of Agriculture warns the meat may lose some quality due to moisture loss. You should not refreeze foods that have been outside of the fridge for more than two hours, or one hour in temperatures above 90 degrees.

    Mike Beck

    2 years ago Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    Correct. But that last part has nothing to do with re-freezing and everything to do with the meat being in the temp danger zone. I think this is where the "don't refreeze" myth came from.

    I worked in a place that made the ''meat' for Chicken nuggets - trust me, the slimy, MRM (Mechanically recovered meat), basically everything left over after the carcass has been stripped, is then sent away to be mixed with thickeners, MSG and 'flavouring' , was not nice, in fact it stunk. So, you'll be feeding your kids Nuggets now then .... Do some research then tell your friends. Hideous.

    In the winter when we ride horses the metal bit that goes in their mouth gets really cold. It's customary (and kind) to warm up the bit before you put the bridle on. It's hilarious to see a bunch of people holding bits between their thighs before they ride. You can do it with your hands or by breathing on it, but the fastest way is to clutch the bit with your crotch. ;) NOT inside your pants of course! If you're doing that you're weird.

    Maybe for Green Eggs and Ham? We just added blue food coloring to scrambled eggs, but this works.

    Looks like they're " pâtes de fruits", à kind of very concentrated, solid fruit jelly that's then cut in squares and rolled in sugar. They're traditional treats here and can be kept for à while, in dry conditions. It's the pectin of the fruits that makes them solid. No jell'o in there.

    RIGHT?! Like seriously- Nobody else is eating the food, except the owner of the hair on the plate. We have all probably consumed our own hair on accident, anyways.

    No. No. No. I'm going to fix this. Toss the alfalfa sprouts, add another kind of cheese, caramelize the onions, ditch the pickles, mayo, and scorpion sauce. Add a lil toothpick. Serve on a CLEAN plate, please.

    Like washing dishes that way? I mean if you cut veggies with a knife you can usually just rinse the knife, but other things no way.

    I have washed dog collars in the dishwasher, I see nothing wrong with a horse halter. If you wash them in clothes washer they can get damaged or damage the inside and be loud even if you wash it with rags or towels.

    This one is really not bad, that's usually how a flat top grill looks within 2 minutes of using it. You just scrape it and scrub it clean when you're done.

    The egg shells should be tossed. They still have residual liquid that could spill and add salmonella to the cooked food.
