This trope usually occurs in a prison, school cafeteria or camp cafeteria. The food that a character is served is so terrible that even the rampant vermin (or some other animal widely considered undesirable) refuse to eat it. Maybe because it's an Indestructible Edible, maybe because it's just that bad-tasting, poorly cooked or rancid. This is usually used to demonstrate how terrible the food is. Often the product of a Lethal Chef, and usually in the form of Mystery Meat. Compare Even Beggars Won't Choose It for the non-food variant, as well as Even Evil Has Standards and Even the Dog Is Ashamed. See also Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth, when an Eldritch Abomination turns down a meal of the hero. For other dystopia-like looks at food, see Future Food Is Artificial and Poverty Food. Subtrope of Everyone Has Standards. Sometimes inverted by having only a rat or whatever like it; see Only One Who Likes Spam for that. |

The Simpsons: In a non-animal example, the episode with the sugar ban saw the police burning every bit of candy in Springfield. When they throw the Butterfingers bars into the fire, they get thrown right back out. It's a popular misconception that the show lost their sponsor for that joke. Rather, it's the other way around: the contract was already over, and the show wanted the final word. In a non-food example, when Bart and Milhouse are put in charge of Comic Book Guy's shop while he's unable to work, Milhouse ends up buying several boxes of a comic named "Biclops" about a superpowered nerd with glasses. It's a huge flop and Bart complains that not even the birds want them for their nests. On cue, an angered bird flies inside with an issue of the comic, tears it to shreds and flies away. Another non-food example: the episode where George H. W. Bush moves in across from the Simpsons starts out with Homer trying to sell his stuff to other people on the block. Nothing is purchased, especially not a denim jacket with "DISCO STU" embroidered on it (he was trying to write "disco stud" but he ran out of room). A character named Disco Stu was even invented in this episode just so he could look at the jacket and decide not to buy it. |

Full House. In the episode "Kissing Cousins," Jesse's Greek cousin, Starvos, orders himself a pizza topped with double feta cheese and lamb guts, which gives out quite a strong smell. Even the family dog, Comet, won't touch it as he takes one smell of it and runs out of the room. | |

In the 1925 silent film The Battleship Potemkin, the Russian sailors revolt over being served maggot-infested meat and declare, "Even a dog won't eat this!" The ship's "doctor" tries the opposite to disprove them, claiming that the presence of so many maggots means at least the flies are still eating it, meaning the meat is still perfectly healthy for humans. | |

In Harry Potter, Hagrid's Rock Cakes are a kind of fruit cake and infamously inedible, with the narration describing them as being exactly like eating rocks (in 6th year, a hungry Harry unwisely grabs one immediately... then stops after hearing 'an ominous cracking noise from one of his back teeth'), and Harry, Ron, and Hermione only eat them in small quantities because they don't want to tell Hagrid how bad they are and thus hurt his feelings. | |

In an Animaniacs skit that parodies Les Misérables, the innkeeper and Keeper of the Cats (the skit's answer to Monsieur Thernardier) makes pies that are so bad, even the Inspector's dog is disgusted by them. (The inspector tells him, off the record, that with the proper seasoning, cats can be rather tasty; not coincidentally, Fantine and Valjean are represented by Rita and Runt, respectively, in the skit.) | |

Garfield: Garfield has sometimes used Jon's cooking as mouse repellent. Heck, it probably counts as this trope that Garfield himself won't eat some of the things Jon cooks. Another version: Garfield says he looked into Jon's closet and saw that two hundred moths committed suicide. Jon is regularly stated to still be a fan of polyester-heavy 70s fashion. |

Discworld: In Making Money, Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler asks Mr. Lipwig for a business loan, and brings along samples of the food he sells from his cart. Lipwig's dog Mr. Fusspot is offered a sausage, which he promptly tries to bury under the carpet. When Mr. Bent points this out, Lipwig retorts that Dibbler's ability to get people to eat what dogs won't is a testament to his business skill. In The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents, rats often remind one another that the "green wobbly bit" is something to be avoided when eating one another. In The Truth, the same Dibbler encounters two customers who want a truly awful sausage inna bun, and he shifts an internal gear into reverse as he describes their contents, including the tidbit that you won't find any rat in them, because rats won't go near the place they are made (with the tasteful detail that when a man's thumb got cut off they didn't even stop the grinder — one hopes he was exaggerating). There's Dwarf Bread, a parody of Lembas Bread: The main point of packing it down as rations is so you know that, as long as you have Dwarf Bread to look forward to, almost everything else becomes a better alternative for food. Including roots, berries, moss, small rocks, or your own legs. Dwarfs probably wish it could attract rats, rats being a staple of their diet, but the best way to catch rats with Dwarf Bread probably involves throwing it at them. In Feet of Clay, rats are described as sometimes breaking into the Dwarf Bread Museum, losing most of their teeth in the process. Cats often hang around, as the rats are a bit stunned after taking a bite of what is basically a slab of semi-edible concrete. In Witches Abroad, it's described that the best way to eat dwarf bread is to soak it in a bucket of water for a week then eat the bucket. The Discworld Almanak says that leeks will survive "pigeon, rook, rabbit and slug, the reason being, nothing else in Creation wants to eat the damn things". |

Rations from the Metal Gear franchise are notorious for their taste. In Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Naked Snake admits he'd take a rotten snake any day over Russian rations. He and EVA complain about the taste when consuming one and if you toss one to the guard dogs, they won't even touch it. According to Roy Campbell in Metal Gear Solid 4, French rations are consider to be the best which contains sweets and American ones to be the worst. It doesn't help that Rose's cooking is considered to be even worse than that: in that conversation, she makes note that Roy has almost never stopped talking about those French rations, and according to Raiden he would prefer rations to Rose's food. | |

In Bravelands, this is a more spiritual example. The vultures in the Bravelands usually observe the carcass of a killed animal before eating it, to see if the animal was killed according to the Code or not. If the dead animal was killed by a predator following the Code, they eat. If not, the vultures won't eat it, instead taking its bones to the Great Mother to read. Speaking of the Great Mother, they won't even eat her carcass out of respect once she's murdered by Stinger and Stronghide. | |

At one point shortly after Koromaru (the dog) joins in Persona 3, there's a small moment in the dorm lounge (it can be seen around 8/15 to 8/24) where Yukari, having screwed up making her dinner, tries to feed the leftovers to him. Koromaru wants nothing to do with them. Junpei, of course, thinks it's hilarious. There's also a scene in Fuuka's Social Link, where she tries to give some of her food to a stray cat. It runs away. |

In The Triplets of Belleville, Madame Souza warily regards the frog stew the eponymous triplets have made, and even Bruno, the obese dog shown so far to eat anything, sniffs it and then backs away. This is mostly due, however, to the fact that one of the frogs in his serving is still alive and starts to kick. | |

Garfield and Friends: Garfield combats a rodent infestation by serving them Jon's latest experimental dish. They eat a few bites before deciding that it's too awful for them and leave. In several episodes, people who have HORRIBLE cooking are demonstrated how horrible their cooking is by having even Garfield refuse to eat them. An example being Papa Plastique's pizza, which is so inedible as to seem to be made of plastic. |

Later in the scene, however, their liaison from Hong Kong refuses to eat at that restaurant, and when they go to leave they throw some meat to a stray dog that has been watching them. The dog reacts by just whimpering and turning away. | |

Tintin: In Tintin and the Picaros, Tintin cooks up a meal laced with an experimental drug from Prof. Calculus to a rebel camp to break them of their alcoholism. Said rebels don't trust him, so Tintin feeds the meal to Snowy. Snowy doesn't want to eat it either (because the drug tastes like Blazing Inferno Hellfire Sauce), but Tintin forces Snowy to eat it anyhow. The rebels then eat it. Nobody gets sick, and nobody can hold their liquor afterwards. Mission successful. | |

The only planets they refuse to eat are Necron tomb worlds, which feel like void in the Warp to them (and are inherently devoid of biomass, as the Necrons' first reaction to finding life on their doorstep is removing it to the last bacterium). | |

Voyages of the Wild Sea Horse: The most successful dish in UkyÅ�'s attempt to prepare a Masochist's Meal is a local equivalent to hongeo-hoe — a sashimi-like Korean dish made of skate fermented in its own bile and urine. Miriam (a tiger shark fishgirl who has been seen gnawing on cannonballs) is repulsed by the smell and how it's made, Kodachi (who admits to enjoying herb-crumbed lamb's brains) recoils from the smell, UkyÅ� herself nearly throws up after taking one mouthful and quickly pushes it away, and Shampoo (who is seen happily slurping up roast snakes like noodles) refuses to even try and touch it. | |

In Child of the Storm, Hagrid's Rock Cakes are just as bad as in canon — Diana (a young Wonder Woman with the attendant indestructibility) barely manages to eat one before "with a slightly wan smile" politely refusing more, while the narration remarks that they "went down the throat like a rockslide, sat on the stomach like a cannonball, and had the taste to match." However, to everyone else's silent astonishment, Uhtred (a teenage Asgardian) wolfs them down, including all the ones others slip to him, and enthusiastically pronounces them to be delicious. | |

In a Mafalda strip, Manolito finds a rat in his family's grocery shop. He prepares a mousetrap, using the shop's own cheese as food bait. Cut to that evening, with the rat in question sniffing experimentally the cheese on the trap. The next morning, Manolito notices the trap still unused and the cheese untouched, but with rat footmarks around it. He follows the footmarks out of the shop, along the street... and leading directly to a pharmacy! | |

In the second Rivers of London urban fantasy novel, Molly's eggs Benedict turns out so badly that Toby the dog, when offered a sample, whimpers and hides under the breakfast table. | |

In the Amphibia episode "Lily Pad Thai" we see the chef of the local Greasy Spoon, Stumpy, serves putrid slop so disgusting that an opossum-like creature that crawls up on the table eats a mouthful and immediately horks it back up (and this is followed by a shot of a frog skeleton holding a spoon with a bowl of slop in front of it). | |

In Ratatouille, Linguini's attempt at cooking soup causes Rémy, a rat with a heightened sense of smell, to nearly vomit after catching a whiff of it, in spite of rats having no gag reflex. | |

On Friends, during an episode where Phoebe, Joey, and Rachel drive to where Phoebe's bio-dad supposedly lives, they are trapped in their car by a vicious yapper dog. In a bid to distract it, Rachel throws a meat sandwich Joey brought with him as a way to distract the mutt. The dog takes one sniff, recoils away from the food, and goes back to barking at them. Rachel promptly spells out this trope. | |

Played with on Star Trek: The Next Generation. A running joke is that there are certain foods so revolting no being will ever eat them. Except Worf, who thinks it's delicious. | |
