Really Horrible Experimental Flavors

For a brief time, they made chocolate-coated ginger altoids. To die for!!

I can occasionally find the plain ginger ones at a local grocery store. Yum!!

I tried wasabi anchovies, but didn’t care for 'em.

I loves me some salty licorice.

Years ago a friend and I were trying to figure out the flavors of Jelly Bellys. Some were pretty easily identifiable. But there was one flavor that we concluded must be brown rice.

Please tell me you’re not joking and where I can get some!

Huh. Up here they’re as common as regular altoids. I see 'em all the time at Bartells (local drug store chain), Rite Aid and Walgreens. Maybe you should keep checking the other drug stores in your area.

I’m not even that big a fan of chocolate and I love the chocolate ginger ones. Yum!

Has anyone ever tried the “Harry Potter” Jelly Bellies, with tempting flavors such as dirt, earwax, and vomit? One of my friends got a box of them as a goof, and told me to try one. I picked out one of the brown, dirt flavored ones and thought to myself, "There’s no WAY this is going to taste like dirt. It’s probably chocolate flavored and they’re calling it dirt as a gross out factor for kids. "

I poppped it in my mouth and started chewing.

And it tasted like…dirt. Like I had an entire mouthful of gritty, earthy, dirt.

That was the only one I had. And NO, I didn’t try the vomit or earthworm flavored one.

Yes, see post #36

The purple-bag Spicy Sweet Chili Doritos are AWESOME. God, they rock so hard and I can never find them!

On the other hand, whoever stocks the vending machine at work must pocket the money and then buy chips at the government surplus store. One week the whole top row was Ketchup flavored, Steak and Worchestershire, and Kosher Dill. And they stayed there forever because who the hell is going to buy them?

Worst Chips Ever How yummy is this? The worst chip flavors in Canada.

I too love the Sweet Chili doritos.

And I’ve tried Bertie Botts every flavor beans. I think I ate three and then threw the box away. So much potential there. I wonder why they went with just the gross ones.

Recently I bought a bag of rapsberries and blackberries, these guys here,

because I remember loving them as a kid. I got through about five pieces before deciding they are gross and threw the bag away. Now I wonder if I ever did like them as a kid.

and #37.

As long as they’re not rancid, I’d eat the Dill and S&W.

Sheesh, so picky! There’s no pleasing some people, I swear!

How can you tell? :stuck_out_tongue:

Whatever happened to Marmite ice cream?

Or hedgehog flavoured crisps?

(Yes, both of those are, or were, real. Why a supposedly loving God permits such things, though, has never been satisfactorily explained.)

:eek:

Which Gods?

Oh, I’m not questioning that it may well be the food of a certain subset of Gods, but given the possibilities, I’m sure we’re not talking about someone like YHVH or Odin, but something more along the lines of Chalchiutotolin (Jade Turkey, or Aztec God of Penitence) or Ardra (Minor Hindu Goddess of Misfortune).

Best things in the history of time itself. We still carry the parmesan garlic and sundried tomato and cinnamon sweet potato (uck), but not the Szechuan BBQ ones any more.

I’d open a bag of those and not come up for air 'til they were gone. And now they’re gone forever :frowning:

The spicy sweet chili Doritos are awesome too, but not like my Pringles Szechuan BBQ rice crackers.

You speak the truth. Love the DZ.

When I was a kid, watching the Partridge Family, Danny was eating a peanut butter and tuna sandwhich so I thought I’d try it. it was the first and last time I ever got sucked in by a celebrity endorsement. Holy crap! That tasted nasty!

Do experimental flavours that you yourself have created count?

Because, if so, I submit for your consideration my creation of yoghurt aux escargots.

Yes, it is as hideous as it sounds. I will leave the taste and texture to your imagination.

As a modicum of discharge, I have to say that I was under the influence of alcohol at the time.

There was the time, also, when I cooked a dish of spaghetti for five people using for the sauce, instead of a tube of concentrated tomato paste, a tube of concentrated jalapeño paste. However, that was an honest mistake, due to a concatenation of unfortunate factors.

Just my 2 eurocent!

Holy frobozzle! 100 posts!!
