Anything that is a “traditional” food that people make at holiday time out of obligation, not because anybody actually likes it, is usually horrific.

Some examples:

The “3 bean salad” that your cousin Edie brings to every family Thanksgiving (which her mother, and her mother before her also brought) that nobody eats.

Passover Borscht. Useful in suppressing massive fart attacks.

Passover Schav Borscht (borscht made from leaves. It’s from when people were starving in Russia and had nothing else to eat)

Anyone else want to share examples of horrific holiday food?

Lutefisk & Lefse up here in the upper midwest. The lefse (potato crepes) isn’t too bad if you eat it with lots of butter, sugar and cinnamon. Lye soaked fish, OTOH, is never edible.
