Welcome to Food Crimes! This community is here to collect all and any post about cursed food and generally unusual consumables.
Right now, here’s the rules:
- Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
- It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
- No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.
How to tag:
To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz
Here are the current tags:
- Edited - The image was manipulated with editing software.
- OC - You made this cursed food yourself!
- Meta - Relating to the community itself.
Finished checking out all the posts here? Also checkout !shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca!
(BTW, I’m looking for someone to help mod here! I myself would not be enough if this community goes beyond a few posts a day.)

Calling it now, this will become an expensive specialty seafood dish. There's precedent for foods with rocks as an ingredient to get a substitution for clams and oysters
Edit: there's an Italian soup that got it's name in a famine because it was literally cooked with river rocks
I believe the name was based on a European folk tale, not actually using stones as ingredients. Here's an account of the fable.
Here is an article specifically about the Italian dish you're referring to, which also attributes its name to the fable; not actual stones as an ingredient.
Stone soup in the European sense typically just refers to a hearty soup with basic ingredients and is just reference to the fable meant to promote sharing/community. There's a lot of retelling of it, including other inedible objects other than stones.
