It looks like none of you have ever been to the Netherlands, their food is disgusting and absurd.
Their kitchen is solely comprised of mashed everything and the worst pieces of meat. This comes form their history as an exporting and trading nation. Sell the good stuff to make money and keep the crap for yourself. Trust me I know I grew up there.
I will take Steak and Kidney Pie any day above Andijvie Stamppot
lol china as #2 worst cuisine, you kidding me, maybe they judge just by panda express, china has 4 major cuisine, most cuisine serve in america are nothing but fusion to serve american tasted of sweet and fried food. i was suprise that mexican cuisine wasn’t in the list.
Hey I like Stamppot…. anyway I agree the China selection is strange.
Is it just me or does the photo above look exactly like bear poop and sausage??
English cuisine is absolutely the most disgusting, unimaginative and horrible cuisine I’ve ever had. Where food simply just either tastes like shit or has no absolutely no taste at all!
@Weves
Ha! If you close your eyes and eat a tomato or a plum bought in your country you can’t tell which is which!
English food might not be the best in world, but nothing comes close to a good roast beef dinner with Yorkshire puddings, and there’s definitely plenty worse out there.
The worst food I’ve had is Japanese: now that is truly bad! The plate comes and you don’t whether to eat what’s on it or go for a swim with it! I’ve had the misfortune of having to go to Japanese restaurants on four occasions and I’ve been disappointed each time (and sick once). Nothing’s “normal”: they eat raw fish, batter vegetables and fry chocolate brownies – as Catherine Tate would say, “the dirty bastards”! And these are probably meals that have been tweaked to cater for Western taste buds, so the stuff they serve over there is probably even worse. Chinese food is a step up, but is only beans and grass at the end of the day and I’d struggle to eat it on a daily basis. Russian food is pretty bad, but there are plenty of good Georgian restaurants there to make up for it. I’m surprised to see Polish food on the list: I find it quite tasty. Iranian cuisine is great.
The worst cuisine in the world is probably Czech cuisine. They have this national dish (with an awkward name, too difficult to even remember) that consists of beef steaks cooked together with a cream of root vegetables that looks like a splash of fresh diarrhea. It is accompanied with something they describe as “dumplings” but is basically just plain dough. They top the dish with whipped cream (!!), a slice of lemon and some fruit jam. It is not only disgusting but seriously nasty looking.
I have never eaten anything as horrible as this!
I wasn’t impressed with american food. All pap, poor qualty and loads of it. Just go into a diner and ask for pancakes and you get hundreds of the things. American food is also pretty boring, meat bread, cheese, bread, more pap,like i say boring.
Mediterranean is easily the best cuisine, no particular country stands out its all good. Italy though is basically med food with cheese and tomato, but very little onions for some reason. Turkish food was very surprising, i actually loved it.
British food is great too, I dont know where half you lot have been eating but it sounds to me as though you wouldn’t know how to find a decent eatery if it fell on you.
I honestly luv turkish food 1 of the best foods I’m suprised india wasn’t in there cause indian is disguisting when think of american I think of fat cholestrol and gross stuff that make you sick I hate american yuck
@Weves dude u might of eaten indian food stupid turkish is 1 of the best cuisnes on earth search it up got it pal
are you retarded mexican food is world heritage @richard
This has to be a joke, no way on earth that American food is #2.
My favorite is Italian(for sweets and deserts but I’m over pasta),Spanish(for Beef and fish and paella) Greek& Cypriot (for slow cooked pork with corriander and wine, soups,dips,legumes and salads), my least favorite is some English and “fast food”.
@Yaren
Indian food is the best it actually has flavour unlike boring western food and i am Australian and before you say something stupid like “All Australians are racist” i should mention my girlfriend is Indian she was born in Madhupur in the Jharkhand province but she has had Aussie citizenship and guess what she cooks Indian cuisine for me a lot and honestly i only eat western food half the time now. Try Lamb Keema it is good!
1)the U.S.

3)the U.S.
4)the U.S.
5)the U.S.
what are hot dogs even made of?
@Yaren
IF U HATE INDIAN FOOD, YOUR TASTEBUDS ARE CASTRATED! GO DIE!
As a well traveled American, I must say American food is pretty bad/boring, but it’s unfair to include American food in the list because, Americans don’t really *have* a cuisine – just a bland borrowing from other cuisines.
@richard
What the hell? Why would Mexican food be on the list? Real Mexican food is the best tasting stuff on the planet.
I wonder how many people have actually been to an English restaurant and actually tried English food or whether they are simply lead by stereotyping? I live in Poland and the Poles who visit England say English food is bad. Then I ask them “where did you eat”? Invariably they reply that they ate a kebab or some similar junk food as the restaurants were too expensive!! I’m not suggesting that England is a leader in world cuisine however I think it’s food is similar to a lot of other Northern European countries, and actually Polish food, which isn’t bad, is nothing very different than some English food. Food for cold winters!!
England has, for example, more than 700 different types of cheese! Look it up! Ever heard of Stilton? A wonderful blue cheese. And mature cheddar cheese made properly (not the rubbery equivalent made in some countries) can be really good.
I don’t see fillet steak for sale in most Central European butchers or meat of nearly the quality I have found in England. Cheap meat like pork is the norm, forget about having any nice beef or lamb!! However a half decent restaurant in England will serve beautifully cooked steak with, for example a peppercorn sauce or stilton sauce etc. new potatoes and delicately steamed vegetables. (Not a black pudding of serving of fish and chips in sight)!!
It’s not all fish and chips (which are now hard to find done well) or black pudding (which is a traditional dish from Britain all the way to Asia, not solely English)!
And the USA (the home of junk food) can hardly keep bashing on about English food without looking at their own. There is good food everywhere you go, you just need to pull your head out of the sand and go and find it!!
I think this is just fraud, according to stupid votes you’re going to find out the worst cuisines in the world, there is more than those “top 6″ countries, and not because you tried something that you didn’t like it means that that cuisine in general is bad, i bet there are lots of countries where they have really weird things, you should do more research!!
Indian food the best hhahahaahahahahahaha o wow hahahahaah cool story bro
Indian food = instant dihharrea
When you tuck your erect penis between your legs and make it poke out just below your b-hole, the girl (or guy) sucks your dick while the partner’s nose is suffocated in your b-hole. This way, she’s tasting something good but smells like shit. Wa-la. Indian food.
When something smells ridiculously bad.
Did you guys catch a wif of that last fart, it was indian food man.
Indian food can give you diarrhea if it is greasy or prepared with a lot of spices, which is a frequent complaint of restaurants that serve Indian food. If you prepare it yourself, then you can control which ingredients go into the food and you’ll be less likely to get sick.
Also it helps if you don’t have pre-existing gastrointestinal problems such as acid reflux or Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Has even a page dedicated what to take in case you puke your soul out
I submit ESKIMO food as the world’s most disgusting cuisine.
“Old Meat” (see the 1959 film “The Savage Innocents” for an example.) Or how about muktuk… strips of whale blubber enjoyed as a “candy equivalent” by Eskimo children in Alaska.
And finally, auk sausage. The eskimos net young auks (a type of seabird), stuff them into a seal skin casing, and bury them under a rock for about 6 months. The end result is said to taste like “oily Camembert cheese.” I think I’ll pass, how about you?
And then there’s Icelandic cuisine (google “Hakarl”) but THAT’S another story.
@lolwtfit
r u a racist? so ur intention is not to comment about the given topic.? but just comimg down to this site to comment on indian food.. what a good natured human being you are.. the taste and likes of each cuisine depends on their own wish.. nobody came and asked u abt indian food to u personally… maybe u would have had some bad experience with indian food.. but ur comment shows that the people of india are eating some crap all their lives.. if there are such people in earth, how can we expect peace amoung the countries guys?.. too bad..
Oh, and one more submission for the world’s worst cuisine…
NORWEGIAN food.
Speaking as a half-Norwegian myself, I can state based on experience (i.e. about 25 family Christmas dinners) that the foulness of LUTEFISK cannot be disputed in any court of law. (No wonder the Vikings were ill-tempered… a diet of rubbery, vile-smelling fish preserved in lye might just do that to you.)
@gigigig
Why is it that everyone who slags off English food defines England by “That one trip to London we did a few years back.”
English deserts are excellent (Sweet pies, Sticky toffee pudding are my favourite!) – as is English chocolate, with two mainstream brands (Gu, Green & Blacks) real world beaters. The UK is also home to some of the greatest cheeses in the world, including perhaps the king of Cheese – cheddar. Most of the Indian food you will taste (especially in America) is ‘Indian food’ that has been invented by Brits – such as the Chicken tikka masala or the Balti. It’s basic food, but Roast beef and Yorkshire pudding has never failed to impress people – and I’ve cooked it for quite a few nationalities! Please only slag off the food if you’ve actually gone around Britain trying it – not just to some tourist dives in London!
@dudewholovesfood
They are moving because of too many people like – ignorant muppets who come to Britain with a closed mind and open wallet. You clearly had no idea where to go to eat, and spent most of your time in ASDAs!
@Andy No, we’re not stereotyping, English food is by far the worst. Makes American eating experience pretty good. Even English friends complain about it. “It’s the only national food you can eat with a straw.” No wonder you’ve got bad teeth.
You people are all nuts!
Try Mongolian food! Yichh! salty tea, boiled mutton with heaps of fat and no herbs or spices, fermented curds made from mares milk (thats horse milk), and airag an alcoholic beverage once again made from fermented mares milk, this cuisine has to be the blandest and most disgusting food in the world. Thats just to start with, and i cannot believe China came 3rd on your list of worlds worst cuisines, you’ve got to be joking! This is one of the worlds finest cuisines, granted some of the food is strange to western thoughts (note that i said thoughts, not taste buds, because if you closed your eyes and tasted the food without knowing what it was you’d most likely think it was spectacular!). Get out there you bunch of boring gimps and try something truly different, then and only then can you voice your opinions…….
Go to Norway, for the richest country in Europe they sure as hell can’t cook
