What is the worst food in the world?

There is no universally agreed upon "worst food in the world" as taste preferences vary widely among individuals. However, some might consider foods like durian fruit, balut (duck embryo), or hakarl (fermented shark) to be among the least appealing due to their strong flavors or odors.


What does hakarl taste like?

It has a very strong ammonia-like odor, but the taste is actually quite friendly to the palate; it is sweet, nutty, savory, and only a bit fishy. Due to the high ammonia content, first-time kæstur hákarl eaters usually will gag involuntarily, so it is sometimes advised to pinch your nose while trying it [Though usually that's just for the weak. ;) ]. Usually after taking a bite of hákarl, people chase it with a shot of Brennivín, a type of Icelandic schnapps. This immediately cuts the ammonia flavor, and actually complements the subtle tones of the shark. Kæstur hákarl is a very strong-tasting dish, and I would not personally recommend it for beginners in exotic foods. But if you really want a true taste of Iceland, this is definitely on the list of traditional Icelandic foods. Good luck!
