What’s the worst dish your Mother cooked?

Asked by gondwanalon (22894points) June 20th, 2023

My Mother rarely cooked. She was usually gone working or she was sleeping. My two older Sisters did the “cooking” (usually macaroni & cheese, canned soup, frozen TV dinners/pot pies).
There were a few occasions when my Mom would make what she called, “fudge”. Us kids would get all excited as we watched Mom cook it up on the stove in a cast iron skillet. I remember she used a few blocks of cooking chocolate, granulated sugar and butter. And we couldn’t wait for “fudge” to cool. But when it cooled it was hard as a rock. No one complained even though it was so bad. We ate it anyway. We relentlessly kept chiseling away at it and it was all gone within a couple days. Such a great memory.

How about you? Did your Mother have a special dish that was as bad as my Mom’s “fudge”?
