For the two years that I lived in Ecuador, I grew to despise "Flan".... among other dishes.
 
My husband's stepmother is no baker. We were at his father's house on Christmas Eve, and she mentioned that she had made a chocolate cake for dessert but it hadn't turned out quite right (a frequent occurrence). Anyway, I knew to ask for a very small helping. She is diabetic and makes some pretty bad tasting substitutes, she likes to make brownies and cookies with wheat flour and Splenda. We were all trekking through our pieces of cake when she mentioned that she hadn't had any shortening so had used lard instead. Suddenly the weird taste was very familiar

My absolute worst was a Thanksgiving side dish my best friend's mother made. She is a good cook so I dived into that one without caution. I had recently moved to America and didn't know the difference between Cool Whip and Miracle Whip. I was expecting some kind of creamy Jello dessert. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine someone would put mayo in Jello, and it was no mistake.
 
I went to a thanksgiving concert, and afterwards there was a potluck.
THere were some cornbread and salmon muffins that looked good.
NOT!!!! Oh! They were awfull.

The thing is, a good conrbread recipe, utilizing smoked salmon and cheese, can be fabulous.
These, the salmon was not smoked, and I have no idea what else they had done to the recipe.
I watched as nearly everyone who tried them, carefully slid the most of the muffin under their napkins, and dumped them in the trash.

All I've got to say is, do not mess with Alaskan's and their salmon. Do not think for one minute that you can just make a recipe with salmon in it, and we will gobble it up.
It MUST be done right, or else

Last thanksgiving, my new aunt Brenda (mid 40's just married into the family), is talking as my other aunt, grandmother and I are in the kitchen. My aunt Edie offers to whisk the gravy, and grandma (who's a retired nurse) tells her to wash her hand first, and Aunt Brenda says:

"on i never wash my hands when I cook, it's just the two of us"

I see the looks on my family's faces, throw on a fake smile...ou bring

"so what did you bring?"
"stuffing, but it's still in the box"

now I like stuffing.....

"why don't you just relax and I'll do it up, i'm already in the kitchen anyways, and there's no more room in here."
 
My mother-in-law and her mother (hubbie's grandma) are awful and I mean awful cooks! Oh, there are so many, how do I choose?

I can remember my mother-in-law making a "cheeseball." I have no idea what was exactly in it. It did not have any cheese taste whatsoever. All it tasted like was shortening.
