That’s been tried, and it failed. (cite) - it’s a ‘cold, dead hand’ thing.
That second photo: I think I saw a guy turn into that on “Fringe.” And he didn’t look too edible either.
My contribution to this thread: Vegetarian haggis. I had it in London, and they somehow managed to turn oatmeal into something just as vile as real haggis.
Also, packaged cotton candy. For Og’s sake, go to an amusement park and get real cotton candy. That stuff doesn’t belong in a package.
Those, on the other hand, I like, albeit in small doses.
Tater Tots. Buy frozen Tater Tots. Do not buy store brands, or imitations, or things that look like tater tots - buy the real thing. Seriously, they just don’t measure up, there’s a problem with taste or texture, not a whole lot.
How about E-Z Cheese? Who decided that people want a fake aerosol cheese-like substance? All I know is, in Hawaii they use it as fish bate.
Egad… now that truly deserves a NSFH warning!*
Not Safe For Home. Or like Urban Dictionary says: Not Safe For Humanity!
I have never seen anyone purchase these in my life. I’ve tried them once. This description is accurate:
Let’s see, I like the donuts, cherries, generic cheese its (dollar general brand being the best), E-Z cheese, circus peanuts, those halloween candies, and vienna sausages.
Now the food I’d like to submit is any southgate brand food. I’ve seen stray dogs with their ribs showing turn their noses up at that drek.
Frozen “pizza” with imitation cheese. We tried one of these once, not having noticed the lack of actual cheese, and it was about the most horrible thing we ever tasted.
I fucking love jujubees… but they are so rare and I think I have only had them a handful of times in my life. Sooooo damn good.
I love easy cheese 
I also like cheez whiz, the stuff that comes in a jar that you spread with a knife 
I’ll see your chicken and will raise you a Cheeseburger in a can… (actually most items in this list would make a good candidate for this thread)
Liverwurst.
That stuff is beyond vile…its horrible!
All you maraschino cherry haters (and lovers, too) should tryLuxardo maraschino cherries.
So much better than the plasticky neon red ones.
There’s really nothing I won’t eat. I wouldn’t go out of my way to eat head cheese or tongue, but have eaten them before. Meh.
Oh, and haggis is delicious.
Liverwurst melts are delicious.
I don’t understand why black licorice and hot cinammon hard candy still gets made. Who, aside from bitter old spinsters, wants to taste that for 20 minutes?
And who the hell is still choosing crappy French’s yellow mustard over any number of superior alternatives?
Liverwurst, tongue, or head cheese are all delicious between two slices of good bread with a smear of Mother In Law mustard. French’s yellow has its place too. It is the only appropriate mustard for jumbo boloney and American cheese sandwiches.
I like liverwurst. It’s great on toast, with tomato.
My dad used to eat it all the time when I was growing up, so maybe I got used to it.
speaking as a bitter old spinster, I can’t stand licorice or hot cinnamon flavored anything. Maybe cinnamon toast or cinnamon rolls but pretty much nothing else. And licorice flavored is nasty. I tried absinthe once and couldn’t do more than a tiny tiny sip. Sme with ouzo. 
French’s mustard is not bad on a soft pretzel but prefer brown or dijon.
I love those dry-ass donuts, they soak up a lot of coffee!
Baco’s are a good vegetarian food topping.
I like Jujubes. I prefer Dots however.
