The World's Worst Food
I needed a disgusting, yet believable food for a scene in my book. A previous scene already covered the dietary needs of cannibals, and I needed this to be even worse than that.
Little did I know there were so many contenders.
After some thought, I decided to keep the Icelandic name for the chosen dish, an indelicacy which has been declared "the world's worst food": hakurl -- putrified poison shark.
Sadly, I won't be able to use this description of it, much as I would love to.

So what does hakarl taste like then? It tastes like crying. It tastes like broken promises. It tastes like the Lord God Almighty ripping the Bible out of your hands and saying, "Sorry, this doesn't apply for you. I think you want "Who Moved My Cheese?" It tastes like the Predator wading into a Care Bears movie and opening fire.

That description makes me want to laugh and barf at the same time. Quite a feat.
But if you are ever making hakurl for dinner...Then I've got plans that night. ;)

But I think your description is about the best I've ever seen!!!
*covers mouth and runs away*
I love your description!
I love the description of the hakurl you found.
Okay, it's not the most disgusting thing on Earth but it does fall under the "What for?" catagory.
