Savlon. Well, not so much eaten, but I did once (whilst still half asleep) reach for a tube of savlon instead of toothpaste and started to brush my teeth. Even Listerine couldn't get rid of the taste and that's the strongest stuff known to humankind.

When i was about 7 or 8 a mate of mine was chasing a cat under a slide. It lifted his tail up and pi55ed in my mates mouth 
He ran home screaming, when i got to his house, his mum was making him drink TCP

A mate working Greece was taken out by his hosts & foolishly asked for menu “advice” outlining that he didn’t want to sample any local delights & would be more than happy with something he recognised.
One delicious plate of cannelloni later asked what the meat was in the pasta.
“Pasta ? How you say in English …. it was the pipe that goes between the goat’s stomach & *** ?”
He kept it down.

Filetted fish at same meal , where you choose a fish swimming around in a tank, they whip it out, fillet it and flash cook it so quick that when it's presented on the plate to you, with the head and tail attached by the backbone alongside, the fillet is still wriggling and the head is opening and shutting it's mouth.
They also do this other thing called natto, which is vegetable in origin IIRC, but it just made me gag - even more than the sheep's eyes.
Snake in Hong Kong. Meat was alright but the joy they took in butchering this thing alive in the middle of the restaurant was not nice to behold.
Iceland
Puffin's alright, if a bit rich.
The thing I felt most guilty about - Whale steak, and it wasn't that good

Needless to say, I didn't eat it.
What's the worst thing you've been presented with which you were expected to eat!?

Edcase, in Africa it's eat first before you get eaten...
I've been taken to game restaurants all over Africa and you could swear the bush gets quieter as the meal goes on... Not proud about some of the stuff that I've had to eat, but like Brit in Japan says it was a work thang - and its rude to decline the hosts food even if sometimes you'd rather eat your own spleen than what appears on the table in front of you! Very like that series of HSBC ads where the english banker has to eat a series of larger and stranger creatures from the kitchens.
I've a whole list of other appetising treats that I've munched my way through around the world like guinea pig in S America, pig's trotters, "bush meat" , fish lips,chicken feet, etc, etc, but one of the funniest meals was in one of my favourite restaurants in Capetown (Panama Jacks) where my Japanese boss was delighted to hear that they did Crayfish Sashimi - which is basically the live lobster thing I described above- take one stunned lobster/ crayfish (as big as lobsters down there) put in on a plate, remove the back of it's shell, give it a quick slice and dice and serve with wasabi. All was going well, despite the aforementioned snotlike appearance and taste, until about halfway through, while removing some of the "meat" with my chopsticks, when the fish started waving it's legs and feelers. You've never seen a boisterous table of huge pissed afrikaner rugby players move so quickly to get away from us...
On the aptness of the Fat Boy moniker; not huge at 6'1" and 16 3/4 stone but admittedly not slim either, mind you how much of the above would YOU stuff down? Biggest problem is from all the beers to wash away the taste...

Rotten shark in Iceland. Basically, they take this shark, **** on it, and dig it into the ground for a few months before it is unearthed and eaten as a delicacy *yuck*.
Some weird blueberry in white stuff dessert also in Iceland. It tasted just like vomit.
'Sweet bread' here in England.... No-one bothered telling me it was sheep's ***** until after I've eaten it, and it was not very nice tasting either. Kind of fishy tasting, actually.
The vietnamese snake drink thingy mentioned above. It really does look disgusting (actually, I never drank it, but it looks sick). My wife's parents also have a drink with a scorpion in it.

Thank you for the kind words Mr Mod, sir, but IanW clearly has worms as he usually packs away enough for the rest of us at a sitting and weighs ooooh about 7stone. Not normal in my book ( or fair)

Further to my last post: School dinners.
Being made to eat swede (the vegetable ) and lumpy custard (not on the same plate) - should be classed as child abuse. Still gives me nightmares to this day.
I vowed never to eat either again - 25+ years later I still haven't.
