Durian fruit. That is the most vile thing I have ever tasted and the after taste lasted for like 5 hours.
That shit is fucking evil.

I've eaten chicken feet, haggis, blood pudding, sisig, century egg, durian, dinuguan, tripe and tongue tacos, frog legs, snails, alligator, whole softshell crab, and probably a few more delights that I ought to remember. The only one I absolutely cannot stomach is the century egg.

Worked for a Japanese company and visited the head office in Tokyo. One of the more senior managers took us to his favorite local sea food restaurant.
I hate seafood. Especially when it's fancy and you get baby squid that looks like they were just fresh out of the water with no preparation etc (part of the "fancy"). However, culturally I had absolutely no possibility to do anything but eat, smile and praise. The courses just kept coming, each one being more disgusting than the last.

Preface: All seafood makes me violently ill. I wish it weren't so, but here we are.
While living in Switzerland we went to an ikea and found what I thought to be spreadable cheese in a toothpaste type tube. For reference lots of stuff over there comes in those types of tubes. Why not cheese?
I was so excited to get home and immediately tore the cap off and squeezed a giant dollop of what my mouth expected to be something like cheez whiz.
NOPE. NOPE FUCKING NOPE. It was some kind of fish paste with roe...
I puked for like 30 minutes straight and couldn't get that taste out of my mouth until we found some kirsch liqueur that I also hate, but whose taste will overpower anything.

I’ve eaten a lot of pretty crazy stuff by western standards. The most challenging thing I have eaten was a giant water bug. The most challenging thing I haven’t been able to bring myself to eat was balut.
The water bug was definitely not the worst thing I’ve eaten though; it was unbelievably fragrant. Practically like eating perfume.

Nettle stew. Yes, it’s good for you. It tastes like cow shit to me.
There's a local grocery store chain here that has the most bland tasting everything in their prepared food counter. You've never eaten such tasteless food in your life. Poor seasoning? Try none at all. Everything tastes like cardboard.
Want to simulate what it's like to eat food as a 30 year long habitual chain smoker, shop at Freson Bros.
Kellogg would cum his pants on the spot discovering such blandness could exist.
Their potato salad gave me depression. I didn't know you could make a calzone taste like the box it came in.

Couple months ago I got a tonsillectomy. I got nerve damage in my tongue as a side effect of a tool they used and everything tastes different since. Tomato based pasta sauces have been the absolute worst, it tastes very metallic. The only normal type of food I can stand is Asian food that isn't breaded/fried.

I had a chicken sandwich once that was still pink in the middle... Disgusting!

Balut, it tasted good actually but the physiological hurdles I could only eat one and could not do it again.

Witloof, its this variant of cabbage that is long thin and completely white. And it has one of the most pungent bitter tastes ive ever had the misfortune to discover. The taste is hard to describe, but it's similar to bee spit,also known as honey, except replace all the love and care that the bees spat with, with pure malice and wasp hatred. It is incredibly sweet, ungodly bitter and has after cooking the texture of overcooked pasta

Lentil soup. One kid in the entire school ate it.

Minke whale. I've had hákarl and I prefer that over minke whale.

Hard to say. I tend to opt for safe things most of the time. Twice as a child I was conned into taking a spam fritter under the belief it was fish. I like battered fish. It was not fish. I do not like spam.
Texture-wise, I cannot abide kidney. Used to love steak and kidney pies but something changed when my adult teeth came in.
Thirdly, I still have flashbacks to a serving of whitebait I ordered out of curiosity in a restaurant one time. They didn't taste terrible that I remember. Just... whole little fish cooked and to be eaten whole. Never again.
And then there was the case of the Kit-Kat that I was eating blind, piece by piece from my coat pocket, and one of the pieces was hard and unpleasant. I am still not sure there wasn't something else in my pocket that I grabbed and ate by mistake, but that's pretty up there.
