Philippines. They’ll eat anything and call it food.
...and if you drink enough good Irish whiskey, you won’t care what the food tastes like.
really.
My husband visited Ireland and Scotland, and he thought that the food was fairly good.
Well, Ethiopia and Somalia must be pretty high up on the list.
Um, North Korea?
One reason I never wanted to travel abroad What would I eat!
I don’t eat Goat, sheep, or water buffalo, and I hate curry!
Beef and Potatoes is the ticket man!
About the Whiskey it’s true! I’m Irish!
I have to say I was NOT impressed with the food in France, despite its gastronomic reputation. They’l put literally ANYTHING into a sausage casing and sell it.
France. I expect my answer will not be popular with some people here but I cannot think of a single French food item that I would like. I always thought they make it look real fancy to compensate for it’s lack of taste and quantity.
Mexico: It’s delicious, addicting, and has its revenge on exit.
North Korea; pickled cabbage and corn mush if you’re very lucky.
Scotland. Stayed at the Grey Walls once - to play Muirfield - and the menu was filled with stuff that was shot in the barn that day.
At one time I would had said Russia, hands down. But the food in Mainland China, the sort eaten by the mass of people every day, may in fact and contrary to expectations be the “worst” in the world. Besides the country’s infamous food quality non-enforcement (shredded cardboard in meat pies for example) the food in the PRC is very far from what’s available in all the surrounding Chinese speaking countries like Hong Kong and Taiwan. Food served in high class restaurants in the big cities can still be outstanding but is out of reach for most people. The meat ingredients are 90 percent bone and gristle and only in there to add flavor. Rice and noodles make up the bulk of calories people consume.
Ireland, and it’s no contest. They drink to get rid of the taste of the food.
Eastern Bloc countries for the large part, the UK, anyplace where bugs are a staple item.
I gotta go with the Phillipines: I was in college with Pinoys and they salivated for fish heads and rice! But Scotland can’t be far behind!

I saw an article in the WSJ about 20 years ago claiming Glasgow, Scotland had the “unhealthiest” food.
Don’t particularly recall them saying it tasted bad, though.
The only specific item I remember was a “cannonball”, a hard-boiled egg wrapped in ground sausage and deep-fat-fried..
