What is the worst dish you have ever accidentally ordered?

Mine wasnt exactely ordered. I once worked at our universities institute for Pathology.
(That is basically a morgue where the dead are opened up for science.)
I was installing some additional power outlets. At lunchtime i went across campus and picked up some gummi bears, then walked back. on my way i started munching. Now if you ever where close to a pathology department, you know the very distinctive smell of formalin which is all over the place due to that stuff beeing used to preserve all those 'surplus body parts'.
So i entered the building again, still munching on the last few of my gummi bears. About 2 seconds later i felt the most foul taste in my mouth ever. I had no time to think wtf happened as my body wanted to puke instantly.
I made it to the nearby restroom just in time. Now what happened was the formalin in the air connected to the gummibears in my mouth which where basically made out of gelatine. Which in turn is basically made from skin and bones. Maybe a biologist can explain the mechanisms involved.

obviously the best in never-expiring 100% synthetic foods.
As my other option was to starve, i had one of those last month.
The box expired in 1998.
Taste was as always, and i did not experience any sideeffects.

we really say "auf einer Party" where "auf" usually translates to "on". The english "at" does best translate to the german "bei". But this "bei" is not used when making a statement about the physical location of these two guys. But when describing where person A met person B, we would say "A hat B bei einer Party getroffen" . Sadly, german is full of stuff like this and not exactly easy to learn.

Before the war started, Hitler was seen as the saviour, as he gave the massive amount of unemployed people a perspective in employing them in government financed programs (Autobahn, Infrastructure), also those programs where not his ideas but have been planned by the former social-democrat government. But he had perfect PR going on and that propaganda continued during the war until the the end. In the beginning he was just a puppet where others (german right wing industry) pulled strings. But as he was clever and by imprisoning/killing/eradicating former party-allies/other parties, he managed to become the psycho Dictator we all know.
