Default Horrible food memories from childhood

I won't go into the green tuna casserole that was a horrible staple of
my childhood and still makes me queasy when I think of it, but I
recall one dinner when I was around 7...my mother cooked liver until
it was tough enough to beat someone to death with it. I remember one
dinner where I absolutely rebelled and refused to eat it. My mother
told me I would sit right there until I did. I sat there and sat there
for what (in my memory) was half the night. She finally gave up, but
wrapped it up and presented it to me the next morning for breakfast. I
still wouldn't eat it. It showed up in my school lunch pail, which is
when I finally got rid of it. When I got home, my mother asked me if
I'd eaten the liver. I told her I'd thrown it away, which is when I
learned that you can get spanked for telling the truth :-)
