2. Bad Chinese
It's just a pile of M.S.G. with a couple of vagetables and a few small pieces of meat.

Of course, the corollary is that good Chinese is stunning.

3. Meat?
Is that meat in there on the buffet? More importantly....what animal did the meat used to be? Yikes!
Haitian food is the scariest I have ever had, and the only bad Mexican food I have ever had was from Taco Bell (not really mexican to begin with).

6. Bad indian food. Only recently did I have the chance to try good
indian food and I am addicted. Only had bad indian food up until then and couldn't understand why anyone ever ate indian food. Now I get it.

9. Bad Indian Food can leave you with disgusting burps for hours
The worst food I've ever had was bad indian food. However, once I had some good Indian food, I was pleased.

12. Seeing as how even
good Mexican food (and I love the stuff) can mess up your guts, I'd have to say bad Mexican food would have to be the worst.

14. Bad Chinese... When the fried rice has been in the fridge too long.
They needed some baking soda in there... Bad cross-over from
something once.

I'm gagging right now even thinking about it.

20. Bad Chinese food
such as found in the typical suburban strip mall Chinese restaurant: unidentified fried objects in duck sauce, stirfries overpowered with the bitterness of bamboo shoots, and greasy fried rice made with too much soy sauce. Yuck.

23. Bad Italian is worst for me...
...having grown up in an Italian family, I'm used to homemade pastas, pizza, etc. When I see those commercials for the Olive Garden and other Italian food chains, I nearly have a fit. A lot of people have never had a really good, true Italian meal because they are so used to places like Olive Garden, That's Amore (gag). See the movie Big Night for reference.....

25. "I want some PASTA with my Risotto"
See the movie Big Night for reference.....

"She is a Philistine!"

Why anyone who has a choice would eat in an Olive Garden or Macaroni Grill of any of those places is beyond me.

28. I hate Olive Garden
I would rather eat canned Chef Boyardi ravioli! At least I am expecting the canned ravioli to be bad.
