I forgot. The nastiest stuff I've ever had is natto. My youngest son loved it, but the rest of us (and most of my Japanese students) hated it.

Natto is a foul-smelling sticky web of fermented soybeans typically served with a Japanese breakfast. The smell will make you crazy, and the food will make you strong. That's that the Japanese believe. It's like the Japanese vegemite perhaps, or gizzards - some food noxious to foreigners (and many locals) that natives get a kick of brandishing about. "Real Japanese eat Natto" or "Natto is real Japanese food" I've heard from a bus driver, and various people eating alongside me in rural restaurants.

I didn't like it, but I tried it.
