That's an easy one - Durian bonbons from China. Durian is also known as the "stink fruit". You need many hours to get that taste out of your mouth

Black licorice. Or anything containing black licorice. It’s just fucking disgusting.

One Halloween as a kid we got gummy false teeth. It looked exactly like how you think it would look. I cant actually remember how it tasted, but it want good. Second was some sugar free sour patch kid clones, they mostly tasted like soap.

Black licorice is just horrific. I try it every once in a while as I age thinking "Old people like this, maybe I'm old enough to like it myself, now", but no. It's still an instant headache/nausea combo at one taste. Ugh.

Can't stand corn fructose and palm sugar based snacks. Terrible everything - engironmental impact, texture, health impact, flavor. It's just the cheapest possible option that ruins everything it touches.

The disgusting Harry Potter every flavour beans. They had jelly belly jelly beans that tasted like dirt, grass, booger, vomit, ear wax, and others I can't remember.

Hands down absolutely nothing worse than peeps. They somehow manage to make twizzlers taste like ultra gourmet candy.

American candy. Not American brand candy which different outside the US, but actuall American candy. It's all so bad quality and vile that it would never sell outside the US and not even be legal to do so in many places.
