That's a lot better than some things in this thread. Canned salmon is fucking delicious.
During my younger years at Primary School, I went to camp one year and it was pretty much the worst camp I've ever been to. On the first night, dinner was Spaghetti Bolognese.
What was served was basically undercooked spaghetti with ground meat with no tomatoes or anything. Just this brown colored sludge which tasted like crap.
Don't think anything can top that as the worst meal for me.

That sounds exactly like my experience at camp. Undercooked spaghetti on the first night. At least they had dessert.
Holy shit that made me laugh.
I don't know why though, it looks like a good snack. Maybe more pepperoni though.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Alright, there are two clear answers to this:
Alone, probably this:
Another time, I was at a friend's house and he gave me the sorriest excuse for a burger I'd ever seen. No buns, just a burnt, soggy patty on a plate that I had to eat with a fork. It tasted really weird. Halfway through my "meal" he exclaims that he's been taking vacuum sealed food from the dumpster in order to save money, and that this particular burger patty was from one of his dumpster excursions.
Somehow, I'm still alive. I didn't even get sick.

There was a time coming up when mayonnaise on a folded piece of white bread was a pretty common meal. Kinda like a wish sandwich.
It's been said earlier, but ketchup packets and single-shot creamers left out on the coffee counter at a gas station has been a meal before.
I guess that's why I've always thought school lunch was great in contrast to the generally held opinion of it.

My worst meal had to be a whole bunch of laffy taffy, twizzlers, and lemon heads I took from the candy jar at work when I had like $2 in my bank account for till Friday (this was Tuesday). I sold my Ps Vita on Wednesday because screw being hungry.
My daily diet now is one large pizza with pepperoni from Dominos (glorious).

Opened a can of tuna. Drained out the water. Put a Kraft cheese single on the tuna (while it was still in the can) and ate it with a fork and washed it down with a glass of tap water.
Makes a surprisingly good low-carb snack though. Maybe would be better with real cheese. I remember sitting on our shitty couch in our shitty rental house in a shitty neighborhood as I ate that sad, depressing meal.

I just remembered how when we were younger, after my father abandoned us, my mom would go to work at night bar tending, where she met my stepfather who beat and abused us. While she was at work we would often toast bread on a space heater, spread it with mayonnaise, and sprinkle sugar on top.

$30 Italian food never gets old.
Yeah same, I remembered dessert was a little better, which was basically vanilla ice cream and some sort of canned fruit. At least one can't fuck that up even if they tried.
last week i tried to make my own sashimi with sea weed wrap, sushi rice, imitation crab, avocado and cucumber. it was falling apart all over the place so i patched it up with more seaweed until the thing was shaped like a rock and i bit into it like a burger.
it was one of those lucid moments where you're like, i'm a bachelor in my 30s and my life is real sad

Oddly the seeds appeared to come out looking exactly the same and wholly intact. I imagine I could have simply rinsed them off and popped them in the microwave once power was restored.

The ice sandwich put me close to the edge, the canned salmon pushed me over. I'm in tears over here.
Having a really tough time thinking of my saddest meal. Maybe ramen noodles and corn in college?

Thinking puurely of the food, not the circumstances, the post that said white rice and ranch dressing gets my vote.

Oh man, I got a DUI late one night and hadn't got bail the next day so they gave us lunch. The entree was a bologna sandwich that looked like some kind of insulation. It even smelled like a household cleaner. I didn't eat any so guess it doesn't qualify as a meal.
This is really gross.

I went to Publix today after one of my friends raved on about a asian short rib sub they had, only to find out the deli was closed. As a consolation prize I picked up a sugar free lemon meringue pie marked at $3.29. Get to the register and it turns out they marked it wrong and it was actually $6.29. Having already been put in my place by the rest of today's events, I just acted like nothing happened and went on about my business. On the first bite, I wanted to spit it out. Bread should even be allowed to taste that bad and the cream part tasted like silly string.

Figured I'd throw mine in. Crushed up ramen with Tabasco.
Could have been okay if it was Sriracha

Anyways I loved eating these frozen burritos. Bean and Cheese was the worse though.

I actually did a double take when I saw that.
Don't know if I have anything that matches the meals in this thread, but I remember when I was much younger, I stayed at my father's place (my parents were divorced) for a weekend. He was staying with his daughter from his first marriage (which he had neglected to tell my mother about for 25 years), and they were both living in a shitty apartment in the north end of Toronto, located underneath a staircase leading up to the second floor of the building.
I distinctly remember that the only thing he had to eat were leftovers from a friend's party a couple days before - specifically, the roasted innards of a duck. You haven't lived until you've eaten duck intestine, coupled with watery soup that the daughter made. That weekend ended with me threatening to beat my father with a baseball bat.

$10 for two burnt pieces of chicken (leg and thigh) with a shit load of rice and a mango chutney. The chutney was the only good thing about it.

eaten spoonfuls of ketchup and bbq sauce when the going's been super super rough.
gone for multiple days living off either rice, oatmeal, beans, kraft dinner without milk or margarine, loaves of cheap bakery bread.
spent a xmas day eating bread and peanut butter (though I was immersed in episodes of the Sopranos the entire day, so it's not like I was beside myself with grief)

Hell yea, red hot beef is the best. Not going to lie - when those things are 3/$1.00 they are mighty tempting. They make great late night snacks.
