Most Disgusting Canned Foods

The most disgusting canned foods make Spam look like a well-aged filet mignon. These weird canned foods make fast food look like fine dining. These strange canned foods make Spaghetti-Os look like $100/plate Italian cuisine. From the weird meats to bugs to strange food combinations, these canned foods contain things that most people wouldn't eat fresh, let alone after they've been sitting in an aluminum can for who knows how long on some dusty shelf.

Everyone loves convenience but there's only so much quality that can be preserved when companies start canning foods like BBQ chicken sandwiches, peanut butter and jelly, cheeseburgers and hot dogs. Then again, hot dogs even fresh are not the definition of fine food to begin with.

For many of these canned foods, the dish is considered a delicacy in one part of the world or another. Haggis is wildly popular in Scotland. Duck fat is big in France. Silkworm pupae is sold on the streets in Korea. None of the above are considered close to normal in these parts. Then again, the people who enjoy those weird foods probably frown on the canned buzzard gizzards and canned creamed possum, two foods that also make this list.

Other foods on this list are just weird. Canned huitlacoche is something along the lines of hibernating excrement fungi that grows on corn. Canned birds nest drink is made from actual birds nests. Canned Russian herring is literally a can of fish mouths, complete with big, scary teeth. Whoever decided these things are edible needs to get their head examined.

All of these foods are way worse than the gross foods that other cultures actually love. These strange canned foods are as suspect as recipes that use bodily fluids. These disgusting canned foods are the ones that would stay on the shelves after a catastrophic event when we're all starving. These weird canned foods are just wrong. Yuck!

    Canned Tongues

    There's a reason that lamb tongues are canned. It's because eating animal tongues is disgusting, hence the excess and the need to stuff these suckers into cans for eternity. No amount of garnish or serving suggestion can make canned lamb tongues any less gross.

    Canned Haggis

    Haggis is made from taking the organs of a sheep, like the heart, liver and lungs, and mixing it with onion, oatmeal and spices, then stuffing it into the stomach of a sheep and cooking it. Canned haggis is all of the above stuffed into a can where it sits for who knows how long before a brave soul, read drunk people of Scotland, eats it. *Shudders*

    Canned Creamed Possum

    For those unfamiliar, a possum is nothing more than a really big rat. Creaming possum and putting it in a can with sweet potato and "coon fat gravy" does not make it any less inedible. Please tell me people don't actually call this food.

    Canned Buzzard Gizzards

    Buzzard gizzards sounds like a fabulous thing to play on a triple word score in Scrabble but nothing that should be eaten. Come to think of it, no part of a buzzard, let alone a gizzard, sounds appetizing, either fresh or canned.

    Canned Armadillo

    Nothing says disgusting like turnkpike quality creamed armadillo on the halfshell. Seriously, the image on the can looks like someone scooped up roadkill, couldn't sell it to dog food manufacturers so is now selling it on its own. Please let this be some weird redneck joke.
