Just curious. This country has a lot of great food, and a whole lot of awful crap.

I put jjajangmyeon because I particularily don't like it. If it gets no votes, then I guess I am alone in that thought.

Anyone else familiar with naejangtang? It's particularily disgusting...

What's naejangtang, I've been spared that.....

The worst full dinner I had was probably this rubbery fish skin with bean sprouts and gochujang, nasty stuff but I don't know what its called.

Gotta vote for bondaeggi then, I sent a can of it home and my brother reports that even sea gulls (which routinely eat garbage and just about everything else) wouldn't eat it...

That's funny as hell!

I've heard of intestine soup, and do find it nasty, but I voted for bondegi. That stuff is pure nasty.

My vote goes to the cold boiled pork with congealed fat. I don't know the name, but it is disgusting.

I don't consider bandaegi to be 'food', so I won't vote for it.

Why didn't you have an "all of the above" feature on the poll.

EVERYTHING there is just NASTY.

It's called Agu Chim and I agree it's the worst meal I've had in Korea. It tastes like I would imagine how 'Blinky' the three eyed fish from the Simpsons would taste.

I'm not a big fan of chueo tang and al tang. Other than those two, I eat just about everything.

PS - wasabi mayo is god's gift to you all. Enjoy.
