What's the stupidist thing that you ever ate?

One time a ate a whole bowl of strawberry jello on a hot summer day. IT WAS A BIG BOWL!! It tasted so good... until all that water and sugar started to work it's way through my system... I was in the bathroom every 30 minutes for the next 8 hours. I should have seen it coming! What stupid mistake have you made when eating...

I have eaten at least four stupid things that I can think of right now, although the first one doesn't really count because I was about four and it was pure curiosity.
1. A cockroach. I put it in my mouth and chewed. Now I know what cockroaches taste like, but it was more tasting than eating.
2. A grasshopper with salt. Not the kind of grasshoppers they sell at some places in Oaxaca, Mexico, which are already cooked and tasty, but one that was alive and kicking right before I ate it raw. I did it because a cousin of mine told me they were good with salt, when I was five or six years old. They aren't...
3. Very cheap tacos at a street stall in Mexico City. Each taco cost about one peso (a bit less than 10 cents of a dollar). A friend of mine warned me about eating there but I didn't listen. I got dysentery a few days after and could barely move because of the long lasting diarrhea.
4. A lot of habanero pepper sauce at once. This isn't the most exotic but it is the stupidest. After I had avoided eating and drinking irritating stuff for more than a year (alcohol included) because of my gastritis, I was hitchhiking with a friend of mine throughout the South East of Mexico. We were both very hungry, walked into a market and asked for some local food (cochinita pibil, for those who know). My friend, who lives in Massachusetts, ignored me when I warned him about the sauce: "Be careful! It's habanero!". He generously covered his cochinita with about six or seven spoonfuls of habanero sauce and took a bite. As anyone who was eaten habanero can imagine, my friend got all red, tears rolled over his cheeks, his veins became visible and began swelling right before my eyes, while I laughed and made fun of him. The stupid part is that my friend challenged me to eat some of his food and I did... After that I had to hitchhike with a stomachache, drinking milk with painkillers.

Tacos from a street stall in Mexico City would be the winner if I was judging this contest. That's classic...

I must say, the Stupidest thing I have EVER eaten was a dingleberry! (I can only assume you know what they are). My 10 year old son leaves them around as they shake out the bottom of his pant leg from time-to-time.

Anyhow, since it looked like a piece of chocolate someone dropped on the stairs, I actually popped it in my mouth! Needless to say, I spit it out in under a split second!!! YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL!

You mean to tell me you go around eating pieces of chocolate you find on the floor? Ok, maybe you should be the winner.

When I was about 3, I ripped open a box of mouse poison and ate a few, thinking it was a box of Nerds.

More recently, I ate a whole container of blueberries. I don't think I will ever be able to eat them again. =(

Wasn't me but someone who shall remain nameless ;) My parents had been to a day spa and brought home a cup of the mud from the mud baths -- in a styrofoam cup -- which they placed in the refrigerator. It DID look an awful lot like a bowl of chocolate ice cream which "unnamed person who wasn't me" took a BIG bite of before realizing it was MUD!

You gotta watch what you put in the fridge... my fisherman father would sometimes put his nightcrawlers in there... until my mom made him put and old fridge in the basement for them.

My dutch roommates father was visiting from holland, and woke up before we did and decided to make himself coffee, while rumaging through the cabinets to find sugar, he found a box of humingbird food, you know the red stuff you put in the feeder. THe word sugar was somewhere on the box and the pretty pictures of the humingbirds enticed him he just thought it was another silly american extravagance to have bright red sugar. Later we found out after he told us how nice the red sugar tasted.

AHHHH You made me remember!! I travel a lot for business and I was in Malaysia and my Co-worker I was with took me downtown and we were with this Malaysian business man probably the coolest guy I know and there were all these food stands around and he said he would give me 500 Malaysian Ringgit's (which is equal to 150 US dollar) which 500 Ringgits for a business man is like NOTHING at all. But I had to eat this raw unhatched duck. I took one bite out of it and puked. Grossest thing I ever ate! I had food poisoning for the next 3 days. I got the money and was pissed off that he made me do it.

This is the truth. In the 7th grade, I wanted to lose weight. My parents had this box of Rid-X septic treatment that said it broke down fat and oil deposits. So I thought, hey, might work for me! I lived to share this stupidity with the world.

I don't think there were any major side effects. I mixed it with rice, and I do not recall a strong smell from the product.

Gross, I know. :)

ok once i picked up a peace of chocolate cake and quickly put it in my mouth only to notice seconds later it had other intended consumers eating it from the inside out.

Many died that day :(


PS: This was a long time ago! Be kind. :-)

EDIT I: suffice to say i haven't eaten chocolate cake since.

I ate scorpions on a stick in China once. I remember asking the guy multiple times to make sure they were dead. He laughed and dipped them back in the boiling water for a few more seconds to ease my mind. As it turns out, scorpions don't really taste like anything. They were just crunchy due to the exoskeleton.

Tripe.

My first apartment, out of college, i found some at the grocery store in a can. On the side was printed instructions on how to bread and fry it. So I breaded and fried it (proud of myself for using graham cracker crumbs in the egg mix instead of real bread crumbs.)

There must have been 4 servings total, I think I made it through half the first. I left the other three out for my room mate, but he was too smart to eat it.

"WTF is this?" I thought. So I look on the side of the can for the ingredients list. "Ingredient: Tripe" Gee, thanks.

There was no google back then, or I'd have found out sooner. It took me another week or so before I found myself in a library with a dictionary. Tripe: (Noun) not good food.

About the same time, my room mate and I had an argument over whether chick peas were the same thing as garbanzo beans. At the grocery store, I saw a row of cans labeled: "chick peas" next to a row of cans labeled: "garbanzo beans." So I bought one of each. That night, I called my room mate into the kitchen to show him that they were the same. (My plan was to open each can, proving once and for all that the contents were the same.) Imagine my horror when I looked in the cabinet and saw: TWO CANS OF CHICK PEAS.

My diabolical room mate had obviously hidden the garbanzo beans, run to the store and purchased another can of chick peas and ruined my plan.

So I left it alone. The next time I was at the grocery store, I picked up some garbanzo beans, and then it hit me. The cans said "chick peas" on one side and "garbanzo beans" on the other.

Turns out I was an idiot.

But I was RIGHT. (Chick peas are the same as garbanzo beans.)

When I was in the 5th grade, I had to have my tonsils out. And you know how you are supposed to eat ice cream afterwards, right?

Unfortunately, the nurse had a child sick with the flu (but still came to work) so I also got the flu. I vomited ice cream so much that I couldn't eat the stuff for years afterwards.

Some advice: don't eat a pepperoni in between to halves of an Oreo. That was at a point in my life when I loved Oreos and pepperoni and thought, "Why not?" It tastes terrible; that's why not...

A piece of dry cat food. I was being silly and tried to freak out my friends. Didn't taste good at all... The worse part is, since my friends know that I used to be a pro-magician, they thought I had switched it out or something. They didn't think I actually ate it... but I did.

I didn't "eat" it but one time I found an unopened Nicorette #1 patch in a car we bought. So I decided to see what it would do to me if I(non-smoker) wore it. Well it made me so sick I could not get out of bed, throbbing headache, puking, muscle aches, etc.
