50 Pictures Of The Best Of The Worst Meals That Somebody Had The Boldness To Serve

If something looks unappetizing, like it was cooked in an iron pot in the ninth circle of hell by a gastronomic demon, we’re likely to say, “Are you friggin’ kidding me? Do I look like a troll with no standards?”

No matter how much we talk about the significance of taste, the truth is that we're also extremely visual creatures. The better a food item or meal looks, the more prone we are to try it out.

On the other hand, if a meal looks unappetizing or unappealing, as if it was prepared in an iron pot thousands of years ago by an evil being, we're probably going to shake our heads and say, "You have got to be kidding me right now."

"Or do I resemble a savage who has no principles?" Goodness, and trust me, there's a lot of repulsive-looking food out there.

You can find it in eateries, supermarkets, and even hospitals. You know, all those good spots where you should actually know better!

What's more, the best part is that there's an entire Instagram account dedicated solely to the bad, the awful, and the most incredibly appalling food items. The Instagram account that highlights the terrible beauty of bad-looking food has more than 15K followers, and with their type of content, that number will be expanding soon.

After all, in an impeccably organized Instagram feed that is brimming with aesthetics and beauty, ugliness stands out better. So we've gathered 50 of the best yet awful food photographs for you to be entertained by from the Instagram blog, so continue scrolling to see the ones that you'd never, under any circumstances, want to see in your fridge or on your table.

One of the beautiful things about this account is that it is extremely open and genuine about its content, as it doesn't attempt to sugarcoat anything. We always have to remember that first impressions mean everything in the realm of food.

And we’re talking about the look, the smell, the initial bite—everything that should come together to make (or, in this case, break) the feast.
