The masochist's meal is any food that is so unpleasant, painful, disgusting, or even outright dangerous to eat that the only reason any sane man would eat it is to be able to brag that he did... which possibly puts his sanity in doubt. Real-Life examples abound, to the point that fictional analogues tend to be really over-the-top.
It will often be prepared by a Cordon Bleugh Chef or a Lethal Chef. Can overlap with Stock "Yuck!", Foreign Queasine, Eat That, and Bizarre Taste in Food. It's common that a character Prefers Raw Meat or is a Metal Muncher for this reason. For bad tasting coffee, see Bad to the Last Drop, or A Tankard of Moose Urine for nasty alcohol. For drinks that are way too strong instead of bad tasting, see Klatchian Coffee and Gargle Blaster. See also Fire-Breathing Diner, Blazing Inferno Hellfire Sauce, Unaffected by Spice, and Hot Sauce Drinking for more stuff on the spicy side. If the food is gross because it is unhealthy rather than bad tasting it may fall under Nutritional Nightmare. If the food horrifying because it is sadistic instead of masochistic, or otherwise makes you feel guilty about eating it, it is an Exotic Entree. A person trying dodgy foods may respond with It Tastes Like Feet or I Ate WHAT?!.

Rihannsu: Naturally a series about the Romulans had to cover Romulan ale, long established in Star Trek as a Gargle Blaster. The Romulan Way mentions that it's not any easier for the Rihannsu themselves to drink kheh-irho (it's harsh to the throat), and they drink it partly to prove that they can.

There's a hot pepper item in Super Mario Galaxy 2 which, if Yoshi eats it, causes him to freak out and start running really fast. It allows you to do things like run over the surface of water and run up (and across) vertical surfaces.

Starbound has the "Hot Hot Hotpot", a cookable dish that contains chili, meat, avesmingo (the fruit with a hundred flavors) and molten lava. Eating it boosts your speed and max health for a few minutes, as well as set fire to any enemy near you. You also catch fire yourself for five seconds. Eating the hotpot will literally hurt you, but the bonuses can often be worth it.

A Thousand and One... Americas: From Chris' point of view, this is how the Aztec's great liking of chocolate seems to be. In the final episode, when Chris is given a bowl of chocolate, he drinks it thinking it'll be a divine pleasure for his tongue... only to realize how extremely bitter and spicy it is; Lon tastes it some as well (which he shouldn't even try doing anyway since chocolate is dangerous for animals) and ends up convulsing in agony until he sinks his head in a bowl of water. It turns out chocolate, despite being an Aztec culinary invention, was originally very different from the chocolate we know and love in Real Life, and this scene makes sure to drive the point home. Chris even tells the Aztec man that he eats chocolate with milk and sugar, which the latter character deems a strange combination.

In Ranma ½, Cologne gets a hold of an order of Chinese noodles with an absolutely horrific taste (they managed to knock her, Shampoo, and Mousse out, they were so vile.) But she has crates and crates of the stuff, so, to get rid of it, the Cat Cafè holds a contest: she'll hide a mystical "noodle of strength" in a mountain of the rancid ones. Cue the egotistical martial artists in town (and a few Muggles) scarfing their way to the (quite literal) afterlife. Oh, and the strength-giving noodle? It tasted even worse. And it didn't work as advertised.
Again, when Ukyou was sick and Ranma, Akane, and Konatsu volunteered to tend to her restaurant, Akane's okonomiyaki were so gruesome no one would eat them. Ranma is then inspired to hold a similar contest, with a prize going to whoever could finish their whole meal. Akane was not amused.
And also related to Akane: after a whole saga involving her trying to get Ranma to eat her home-made cookies, he finally takes them just to make her happy. He spends the next week bedridden. The several dozen incriminating photographs he had disposed of earlier probably didn't help.
The very first time Akane's cooking entered the scene, Ranma and Genma retched and gagged, but didn't even call Akane out on it (yet) and instead just ran away. When Ryoga tasted it, he was visibly in serious pain but he kept grinning madly and eating it just for the joy of having Akane's cooking. In the original manga version, cue Ranma himself forcing himself to eat it just to prove to Akane that he liked it too (in other words, to prevent from being "shown up" by Ryoga). Needless to say, that was the last time in the series he would dare to try giving her cooking a chance, and otherwise would have to be forced to eat it.

A quite literal case appears in Blend-S. Maika accidentally puts vinegar, salt and Tabasco hot sauce into her limited time menu dessert, mistaking them for vanilla extract, sugar, and food colouring respectively. The dessert actually becomes a hit with the customers due to Maika being the cafe's "sadist waitress" servicing a bunch of masochist customers.

In Tales of Monkey Island W.P. Grindstump is the proud owner of a Fugu Jolokia Pepper. He won it by being able to place his tongue on the outer skin of the pepper for a full 10 seconds, and now offers a challenge for anyone who would place their tongue on the pepper for a full 11 seconds! No mean feat, as not only is the pepper spicy beyond all sanity, even on the outer skin (whereas most real-life peppers have their heat in the juice or seeds), but it is also hot temperature-wise to the tongue, to the point that Guybrush's skin nearly burns when he tries touching the pepper with his good hand; he needs to numb up his tongue if he wants to win the challenge.

There's an episode of CSI: NY where the murderer is tracked to a restaurant serving bizarre foods such as deep-fried tarantula, with the murder weapon being a live baby octopus. The octopus was meant to be eaten alive after its tentacles were bound, but the killer deliberately left them loose so the victim would choke on it.

Doc of The Whiteboard attempted to have wings labelled as "Death by Nuclear Inferno" but failed as the fumes took out the cook and are burning their way to the earth's mantle. Roger pretty much demanded all the beer in the place after one plate and a drop of the sauce left a rabbit player imprinted on the wall. Doc, by contrast finished off three plates after only his ears being literally lit on fire and then referring to them as bland!

During the King of Iron Chefs tournament in Iron Chef, Iron Chef Chinese Chen Kenichi, recognizing that this could be the final battle he does, decides to make his mapo doufu extra extra extra spicy, just the way he'd eat it. The fumes alone were so strong a cameraman had to pull away, coughing. Sumo yokozuna Akebono (who, it should be noted, is a Hawaiian) loved the extra spicy mapo doufu though. By the way, Chen did win that battle and went on to the final.

The Simpsons:
Homer has a brush with death when he eats a poorly prepared Fugu fish. This was Artistic License at work, as they treated as a standard (and ridiculously slow-acting) poison instead of a neurotoxin.
"Homer Simpson Vs The City Of New York" has the infamous Klav Kalash vendor. While stuck at WTC Plaza waiting for a traffic cop, a hungry Homer buys a weird ethnic food called klav kalash from a vendor, which looks like some sort of meat on a stick. It apparently tastes awful, though Homer still finishes it. He then buys several cans of a crab juice soft drink from the vendor. About 20 seasons later, the Simpsons return to New York, and Homer discovers that the vendor has now become a successfull entrepeneur with a franchise of klav kalash restaurants.

MythBusters once tested various methods of curing the burn from chillis (using whole milk as a control). One of them was using wasabi. Grant (who was using jalapeños for the initial burn) was in even worse pain than with the chili peppers alone. Tory (who was using the hotter habaneros) actually got some relief from the wasabi. None of the cures they tried were as good as milk.

The Observers from Fringe have little sense of taste, so they always spice up their foods. The first episode to focus on them has one eat a roast beef sandwich topped with eleven jalapenos, an entire bottle of Tabasco sauce and a whole shaker's worth of pepper. Another has them eating whole Bhut Jolokia peppers in an Indian restaurant.

Tadashi of Onidere is one of two people able to eat Saya's cooking. Every time someone tries it, there is a flashback to the worst pain they have ever endured, and then a multiplier. For Tadashi it was 30 times worse than stubbing his little toe as a child. That was the first bite. The tea served afterwards? Five times worse than the entire meal.

In Around the World in 80 Days (2004), while visiting Passepartout's village in rural China, his mother gives Phileas a cup of rice wine that is implied to be both homemade and EXTREMELY potent. Phileas takes it and drinks it with a smile on his face and, still smiling, declares it to be "absolutely vile", no doubt grateful that the old lady can't speak English. Still doesn't stop him from drinking enough to get completely sauced.

Subverted by the "Sinner's Sandwich" in Deadly Premonition. Upon hearing its list of bizarre ingredients, York assumes it's this type of food, meant to be eaten as atonement for one's sins. Upon actually trying it, however, he announces that it is in fact delicious.
To wit: Turkey, jam, and breakfast cereal on your bread of choice. There are more than a few posts on various websites and forums that attest the sandwich is in fact as delicious as York says it is, with the cereal and turkey creating a pleasant balance of crunchy and firm textures while the jam takes front and center on the flavor.

A very funny page from a Green Arrow Secret Files issue shows Ollie's famous chili recipe (which is not only an actual recipe, but apparently a very good one, if not really as hot as depicted). The JLA all have horrified reactions to it (including J'onn comparing it to fire and freaking out), with the exception of Superman, who is shown freezing his spoonful with his super-breath before he puts it in his mouth... and Batman, who just thinks it needs more crackers: Link. It comes back in Scooby-Doo! Team-Up revealing that Scooby and Shaggy both can handle the chili, despite flames shooting out of their ears.

Harry Potter has Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, another example of the "Russian Roulette" version. They're presented as the Wizarding World equivalent to jelly beans, and the majority of them seem quite normal. The catch is, when they say "every flavor," they really mean it. In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Dumbledore, who is otherwise known for his Sweet Tooth, says he swore them off as a boy after sampling a vomit-flavored bean. After mentioning this to Harry, he gives them another shot, only to get one flavored of earwax.

Some ingredients on Toriko are even more dangerous to eat than they are to catch or prepare. In the "Gourmet Casino" arc, Toriko eats a Nitro Cherry and barely survives since it's like eating a lit stick of dynamite. And he only survived because he ate two other masochistic foods — the Dynami-Dragonfly, another explosive ingredient that reduces the effects of other explosives, and the Troll Cheese, whose foul odor messed up Toriko's super sense of smell so that he wouldn't succumb to the Nitro Cherry's fumes. Near the end of the arc, he eats a Poison Potato, the most poisonous food in the world, one that not even Coco can fully neutralize. Luckily for Toriko, the Poison Potato is compatible with his Gourmet Cells, so he gets a powerup instead of a nasty death.

The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You: Chapter 83 centers on a ramen shop owner attempting to create an unbeatable challenge dish, and Moving the Goalposts whenever one of Rentarou's girlfriends beats the new iteration. Some of the dishes delve into this category:
It starts with a "spicy-as-hell" challenge ramen, which Kusuri and Yaku beat due to their Professor Guinea Pig habits leaving them Unaffected by Spice.
The next dish is a "hot-as-hell" challenge ramen, which is kept hot by a lit flame under the bowl. Resident masochist Iku is the one to complete the challenge.
After this, the owner crafts a "steamy-as-hell" challenge ramen, so steamy it would blind anyone who tried to eat it. Mei completes the challenge without any difficulty.
The owner goes on to make a "tough-as-hell" challenge ramen, made with a tough slab of meat. Karane struggles at first, but Momiji tenderizes the meat, enabling the former to complete the challenge.
A later iteration is the "stupid-as-hell" challenge ramen, made to look too disgusting for anyone to want to eat. Unfortunately, one of the focal ingredients was a Big Mac, the Trademark Favorite Food of reverse Occidental Otaku Naddy.
The final version is a "massive-as-hell" challenge ramen, made with every ingredient in the ramen store and bigger than the owner herself. So, of course, the one to take this challenge is Kurumi.

Food Wars!:
Jouichiro Yukihira is widely considered a god in the culinary world, and his son Soma is, at age 15, already looking like he will surpass his dad. Both are capable of turning out dishes that are literally Better than Sex, but they also take delight in experimenting with flavor combinations that God never intended to see the light of day. The standouts so far are Soma's charcoal-grilled squid tentacles with peanut butter and Jouichiro's dried sardines in strawberry jam. When Soma sees one of his dorm-mates collapse after sampling one of Jouichiro's dishes (snake, boiled with the skin on), he immediately tries it and:
Nao Sadatsuka actually specialized in masochistic food, and is even a masochist herself who enjoys being verbally abused. During the Autumn Elections, the curry dish she prepares is explicitly compared to BDSM by the judges who taste it because it looks and smells awful, but you can't stop eating it once you taste it. During the Moon Festival, her booth serves several foul smelling foods listed in the real life section of this page and she connects with Soma over their shared love of disgusting food.

His Fourecks counterpart, Fair Go Dibbler, serves a meat pie floater. Apparently you have to be astonishingly drunk to consider eating one a good idea. In fact, all food served by Dibblers are like this, from Cut-Me-Own-Hand-Off Dhblah's disturbingly live yoghurt (he had to keep hitting it with a spoon to stop it escaping) to May-I-Be-Kicked-In-My-Own-Ice-Hole Dibooki's chunks of blubber (Rincewind reflects that it's one thing to butcher beached whales, and something else to just wait until they explode into bite-sized pieces on their own). Inverted with Disembowel-Meself-Honourably Dibhala, who we first see being accosted by a customer complaining that he's been sold a fresh egg, rather than one that's a thousand years old.

Cracked:
The 6 Most Terrifying Foods in the World. Items not listed elsewhere on this page include:
#6: Escamoles, the larvae and pupae (the article incorrectly states it is the eggs) of a species of large and very venomous ant, which are surprisingly delicious, but expensive due to how difficult they are to collect.
#3: Baby Mice Wine, rice wine with baby mice fermented in it.
#2: Pacha, boiled sheep's head.
9 Horrifying Foods You Won't Believe People Actually Eat. Items not listed elsewhere on this page include:
#9: Odori Don, a bowl that includes an octopus or squid so freshly killed that it is still squirming and may choke you if you try to eat it.
#8: Sourtoe Cocktail, a cup of an alcoholic beverage with a preserved, frostbitten human toe in it donated by helpful (if unlucky) mountain climbers. You don't actually eat the toe, but it is required that the toe touch your lips when you drink it.
#7: Drunken Shrimp, live shrimp soaked in a strong alcoholic beverage to make them less resistant to being Eaten Alive.
#6: Fruit Bat Soup, a soup that includes a completely intact fruit bat. Not even the fur is removed and you eat the entire thing down to the bones. Eating this has the potential to cause you to get multiple brain diseases at the same time due to the toxic plants the bats eat. Plus bats are known to carry several potentially deadly viruses. Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, an urban legend sprouted that a dish like this was what infected Patient Zero (naturally there's no proof).
#5: Uni, the gonads of a sea urchin. You may have seen this at sushi restaurants.
#4: Witchetty Grubs, the four inch long larva of the cossid moth, eaten alive with no preparation at all.
#3: Blood Clams, a species of clam that produces an excessive amount of hemoglobin so appears to have Overdrawn at the Blood Bank, traditionally cooked for only about 20 seconds and so are almost raw. They actually are illegal in China because they have a high chance of giving you hepatitis, but people eat them anyway because they are apparently delicious.
#2: An entire meal prepared from various parts of a freshly slaughtered cobra, including the cobra's still beating heart eaten raw and a drink made from the cobra's bile and venom (most snake venoms are harmlessly destroyed by digestion as long as you don't have any wounds or ulcers in your mouth or digestive tract though which they can get into your blood).

Freefall:
Discussed here:
Mr Raibert's regular pizza order features Carolina Reaper peppers, which measure 1.6 million Scoville heat units (for context, cayenne pepper is only about 40,000, give or take). It's not because he particularly likes the taste; it's because the man considers four hours of sleep per night a luxury and is perfectly willing to bite down on a pizza that has to be handled with safety gear if it'll keep him up for another twenty minutes.

Master of Formalities has chowklud (yes, it sounds like "chocolate", one of the tastiest things in the world) is a Blazing Inferno Hellfire Sauce that's served with every meal on the planet Cappozzi. To say that it has a strong flavor is to put it mildly. The Cappozzi pride themselves on enduring hardships, so they tend to pour Chowklud all over their food (which is deliberately made bland and tasteless to heighten the effect). It tastes and feels awful, but deals no permanent damage, and some people can grow accustomed to it.

Yin Yang Yo!: Master Yo's bank security is based around the fact that he's the only one likely to survive the disgusting trials needed to reach his vault. The first trial, the Doom Pizza, is an expired pizza that would likely kill anyone else with food poisoning. Despite his protests over being the last panda on the planet, Yo turns out to be okay after a belch and a few minutes.

The fandom tends to take Misato Katsuragi's lack of cooking skill to Lethal Chef levels for fun, but Aeon Natum Engel and its rewrite Aeon Entelechy Evangelion make this actual characterization. Because of brain damage from an injury (the original) or exposure to Leng (the rewrite), Misato can barely smell or taste anything, and has to have her food at weapons-grade spice levels to be able to enjoy it.

Final Fantasy XIV
Shadowbringers brings us Archon Loaf bread, created by the Scholarly society of Sharlayan. Archon Loaf is described as the definition of Boring, but Practical in food form, being packed to the brim with all the nutrients a person would need in a simple, easy to consume and simple to digest loaf of bread, but having no consideration for the taste or texture, being akin to a hardtack made out ground herring and carrots. While considered a godsend to those needing a serious boost and students having to spend long nights cramming, it serves its purpose... but that requires actually being able to tolerate it.
Endwalker brings us Panaloaf, from the same chef that made Archon Loaf. This is even more nutrient packed and healthier than Archon Loaf, but even more unpalatable. The Endwalker questline for Culinarian revolves around trying to find a way to make Panaloaf appetizing - and, when that fails, finding a substitute that fills the practicality and ease of access niche - because unlike Archon Loaf which you can grin and bear for its positives, nobody can hold Panaloaf down, which makes any benefits it could offer irrelevant. The substitute gets accepted over Panaloaf (despite being slightly less practical) when someone points out that "People in any situation where they'd have to eat this are already stressed out and may cross the Despair Event Horizon if this is their only food."

World of Warcraft: Cuisine in Azeroth is a bizarre and frightening thing. You can buy innocuous enough food from vendors, like grapes, bread, fruit juice, tea, or filtered water, but if you pick up the Cooking skill, bad things start to happen immediately. If you can kill it and it's not obviously sentient (with the exception of murlocs), somebody's figured out a way to make it into a stat-boosting food. You can learn to make bat wings, rat stew, spider cake, wolf steak, bear burgers, rhino stew, ravager sausages, chimera chops, and a brand of chili so hot that it causes you to randomly breathe flame, among many other options.
Bear is the odd man out on this list, as it is in fact quite a tasty meal.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim: For one quest you have to imitate a world famous chef and make his signature dish (which you have to improvise for), the player has the option of adding some absolutely insane ingredients (Vampire dust?

In Persona 4, when individually lethal chefs Chie and Yukiko join forces, the result is a concoction that Yosuke aptly names "Mystery Food X". You can choose to eat it willingly (if your Courage stat is high enough) or be forced to eat it because there's no other way out, but either way, one bite makes the protagonist and Yosuke faint with a very loud crash as they hit the table.

Dave Lister's fixation with vindaloo curry in Red Dwarf. Lister is a man who drinks vindaloo sauce for breakfast. It is said his shishkebabs require enough chilis to boost a small rocket into space. His chosen vindaloo becomes a weapon that slays space monsters and fells a tyrannosaur. When the Starbug runs out of all forms of curry, it precipitates a disaster that escalates until the course of human history is altered and the USA is destroyed as a world power.
There's also Lister's favourite sandwich, triple fried egg with chili sauce and chutney. He claims you have to eat it quick, before the bread dissolves. Rimmer equates the experience of eating it to the pain of childbirth.

In Binging with Babish, Andrew aims to recreate foods seen in fiction as accurately as possible. Because many dishes in fiction are solely intended for the realm of fantasy, expect quite a few of these like the Car Panini or the Every-Meat Burrito. There are even cases where he goes out of his way to make the dish potentially dangerous. For example, for his take of the Death Sandwich, he figured out how to make it with Fugu so that, while it wouldn't kill you if it was eaten wrong, it would if it was prepared wrong.

The Lord of the Rings Online: Lampshaded. In one dungeon infested with undead, you can find a piece of cheese. If one didn't think a piece of cheese found in thousand-years old ruins would be bad to eat, the description for the cheese even says "It's quite smelly and no doubt highly deadly. Only the unwise would eat it." Eating it results in a big Damage over Time-effect that lasts for 20 minutes, in addition to the character title "The Unwise".

In Oxygen Not Included, the most basic food you can make for your Duplicants is the Mush Bar, which is made from dirt and water. It's basically a stick of mud that's been heavily processed into something vaguely edible. Not only is it the lowest possible food quality level, but it can give Duplicants diarrhea.

Miia's cooking in Monster Musume is terrifying. Despite this, Ren Kunanzuki, the daughter of Rachnera's previous host family, manages to finish an entire plate of it even though the smell alone caused her to pass out after every bite. No one else even bothers to eat it, they just feed it to Suu since she's immune to being poisoned.
Justified and Discussed, since as the characters note, carnivorous reptiles like Miia have far fewer taste buds than omnivores like humans do.

Sydney of Grrl Power makes a point to offer mortal insult to a new chili restaurant her first time there, just to be sure she gets a sufficiently hot meal.
She was also required to sign a legal waiver to order said meal, making absolutely sure that she knew that this wasn't going to be your everyday hot sauce. (Which leads to her being a Fire-Breathing Diner...do a bit of Stop, Drop, and Roll....only to thank them for making something so spicy and continue eating.)

All of Pervian food in Robert Asprin's Myth Adventures. As Aahz once put it: "The biggest problem with Pervian food is to keep it from crawling away from your dish while you are eating it..." And it stinks.
In the comic book, they mention that they serve this stuff on purpose to scare away would-be interdimensional tourists.
On one occasion, Skeeve walked into a Pervish restaurant and ordered something Klahddish... only to be served a stuffed Klahd. Not really, but only because the place didn't have a license to serve sentient creatures.
Gleep the baby dragon is sometimes seen swallowing unidentified things he's found in gutters or basements. Usually Skeeve is glad not to have a clue what they are, as the number of legs sticking out between his pet's jaws is disturbing enough.

Neopets:
It would be easier to name food that doesn't fall into this than everything that does, but standouts include one of the cheapest "gourmet" food items, the Completely Non-Lethal Sandwich, which is an ordinary sandwich with a ray gun bigger than it jammed into the top. The pets don't treat it, or any other of the many similar food-but-not-really items, differently than any other food. (Though they draw the line at items in invokedthe "Gross Food" category and will berate you for feeding them one of those.)
If you have a Grarrl or a Skeith, it goes even further, as those species have the unique property of being able to eat ANY item regardless of category. You can feed them a bomb that's not even trying to present itself as edible and they will thank you for it.

In Deep Space Nine, Ezri implies that you're supposed to eat it whole, and alive. It's one thing she doesn't have in common with prior Dax hosts. Curzon and Jadzia were comfortable enough with Klingons and Klingon food. Ezri isn't; after recalling some of the more masochistic varieties, she had to excuse herself.

In The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, the name changes in each game, but the effect is still the same. You can find a Sit-Down meal that, when consumed, brings the party's HP to One, but raises their CP meter by 100.

The Monstrous Regiment has an experienced corporal (who had only one actual limb not made of wood, with at least one of his legs having gone by being swapped with another man's to stave off starvation in a campaign, which they considered preferable to Autocannibalism) make it pretty clear to the recruits to expect this in military life should they have anything at all. A thin soup made of...whatever, called scubbo, is frequently mentioned. To the shock of absolutely everyone, the squad's lieutenant rather likes the stuff (some are less surprised upon learning he went to a school "for young gentlemen"). The corporal in particular prefers rat over horse.

I Wanna Be the Guy: Delicious Fruit is what the people of the game eat. You know, those enormously lethal, gravity-defying apple/cherry things that kill you in one hit? (Just like everything else) According to the creator of the game, people have to knock them off trees with sticks and then they boil them three times to eliminate all the poison. If you only boil a Delicious Fruit twice, it turns into a bouncing ripe red engine of death, as evidenced by the Breakout level. And people eat these things! But... they're Delicious...

In Star Trek Klingon food and drink are often like this. Example: Gagh is unprocessed serpent worms, usually eaten live. The taste is revolting and it is eaten solely for the unique sensation of the gagh spasming in one's mouth and stomach in their death throes.

RuneScape:
The "Rum Deal" quest has the player assisting with creating Braindeath 'Rum' also known as unsanitary swill that a bunch of zombie pirates want since they have surrounded the brewery where it is made and made the workers afraid to go outside. The ingredients include stagnant water, mind controlling sluglings, blindweed, and the corpse of a disease carrying fever spider. The examine text for a bottle of it says "I think it is eating through the bottle." and if you drink it, you receive the message "With a sense of impending doom you drink the 'rum'. You try very hard not to die."
The "Recipe for Disaster" quest has several dodgy sounding recipes in it.
The quest starts with a cook asking you to bring him some difficult to find ingredients for a special feast. These ingredients include Eye of Newt, a greenman's ale, a rotten tomato, and a fruit blast cocktail with ashes in it. It isn't shown what the rest of the ingredients were or what he made from them. It turns out however, that it wasn't a recipe after all, but actually a food based spell which unleashes an evil food wizard called the Culinaromancer. The player must then save the guests attending the feast by creating their favorite food in order to undo the Culinaromancer's spell on them.
To save the two goblin generals, who disagree with each other on everything, the player must create the slop of compromise, which is made from orange slices that are dyed so they aren't orange, maggots with spice added so that they aren't bland, and bread with water added so that it isn't crunchy.
To save the mountain dwarf, the players must get a dwarven rock cake, which is too hot to eat when you first get it and have to find a way to cool it down, and even after that it still is too hard for human consumption, but dwarves can eat it fine. And also during the quest you have to make Asgoldian ale, which is Asgarnian ale with a gold coin dissolved in it, in order to convince the dwarf that knows the rock cake recipe to make it for you. This makes the ale unfit for human consumption, although if you think about it, if it can dissolve gold it probably shouldn't be safe to drink even before adding the gold either.
To save the monkey king, you need to cook a giant snake stuffed with nuts and red bananas on a lava heated rock.
The favorite drink of werewolves is a beverage called moonlight mead, which is made from bittercap mushrooms, and technically isn't mead since it doesn't contain honey. Drinking it gives you the message "It tastes like something just died in your mouth." although that might be the reason why werewolves like it. Werewolves also like to eat pickled human brains.

In The Secret of Platform 13 by Eva Ibbotson, the three nannies, after the infant prince is kidnapped from under their noses, punish themselves by inflicting horrible meals on themselves, vowing to never ever again eat something they like, until the prince is rescued ... the earliest opportunity for which is after nine years of horrible food, and dipping their toes in ice water whenever they start to feel too good. When, finally, a rescue team can make it through the magic portal, the nannies sit in front of a crate of bananas, hoping to be able to open it, soon. (Their punishment is entirely self-inflicted, the Queen and King are much too kind to punish them at all.)

Kirby: Right Back at Ya!: Episode 29 had an Escalating War between Kawasaki's restaurant and Dedede's new restaurant with the two competing with spicer and spicier dishes. The entire town, except Kirby, became Fire Breathing Diners. Eventually, Kawasaki invents a curry so hot that tasting one drop causes him to spontaneously combust, a spoonful reduces both Dedede and Escargoon into piles of ash, and it's the only dish to even have Kirby scorching from his mouth.

The first three Paper Mario games have a cooking activity where you bring one or two items to a chef to see what they make out of them. A few of the resulting items can't actually be eaten and are used as weapons or cause harm when they are eaten. The best example is the item called trial stew. It made by combining a couple's cake with a poison mushroom. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door it reduces your HP to 1 and FP to 0, but completely fills your star power and temporarily triples how fast you gain it. While in Super Paper Mario it also reduces your HP to 1 but gives you a huge amount of experience. Giving an invalid ingredient combination produces a dish called mistake, which heals 1 HP. Super Paper Mario also has the taboo fruit, which the player has to find in order to cure Princess Peach after she falls into a 100 year sleep due to eating a delicious golden apple. The taboo fruit turns out to be a black apple, which is the only thing that can permanently counter the effects of the golden apple because it tastes absolutely awful.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney case 3-1 probably qualifies, as Phoenix willingly chows down a glass bottle with poison residue. And survives it just fine. If that doesn't taste as pain, I don't know what does! He didn't outlive the taste of betrayal within that bottle just as easily though.

A Song of Ice and Fire:
The slave soldiers known as the Unsullied regularly consume a drink called the "wine of courage" to numb them to physical pain, made with nightshade, bloodfly larva, black lotus root, and many secret things.
A milder example is available to the destitute in Westeros, called simply "brown". It is a stew made with whatever locally available ingredients might qualify as "meat", though speculation abounds about its actual ingredients. Popular theories include cat meat, dog meat, or even human meat.

In the Regular Show episode "Weekend at Benson's", Benson, Mordecai and Rigby get involved in a hot-sauce drinking contest, and their last course is a concoction their rival calls "Mississippi Queen", consisting of a whole bunch of hot sauces and shellfish mixed in a large sifter. All three drink it down and at first feel just fine. Then the hallucinations start.
In the episode "Bachelor Party! Zingo!!", the group comes across a hidden hot wing restaurant called "Wings for Real Men" that offers the Inferno Challenge: Eat a whole bucket of their inferno wings in two minutes and you get free wings for life. The sauce is made of mutated ghost peppers, hot magma extract and black widow venom. Oh, and they throw the blue cheese container against a wall before you start.

In Wasabi, the commissaire is discussing the case with his friend Momo in a Japanese restaurant. Before Momo can warn him, Fiorentini is snacking on the offered wasabi by the chunkful, as if it were guacamole, exclaiming after many mouthfuls on how delicious it is. At this point Momo, who knows perfectly well how powerful wasabi normally is and was terrified, seems mollified and tries a tiny bit out of curiosity... and promptly collapses in agony.

In Pyramids there's a parody of fugu which contains a poison that, if not removed, causes the eater to expand like a blowfish and explode. It's traditionally served with roots that need to be prepared exactly over several days, or else they react catastrophically with stomach acid. This is described as 'fish and chips For Men'.

In Hetalia: Axis Powers, anything that England cooks is this, due to his preparation. The only character who can eat his food without suffering is America, since he grew up eating his food (he doesn't like it, however). Finland's food is also this, due to the ingredients such as salmiakki, and even his dog describes it as "poison".

NieR: Automata plays with this trope with mackerel, a fish that is safe for humans to eat. When consumed by androids, however, it is as dangerous and lethal as eating a blowfish; bodily fluids congeal, paralysis sets in, and death follows shortly thereafter. Reportedly, however, it is still very delicious, even as it kills you. You can eat it, too, if you like.

The Devil's Backbone shows a human stillbirth preserved in a strong alcohol which people actually drink from because it supposedly has medicinal properties. The director claims in the film's commentary that people have actually done this in real life.

Jade Empire: You can meet Chai Jin, an exotic chef. The dishes are revolting and downright damaging - depending on what you choose you'll hurt your body, mind or spirit — but if you sit through three courses of escalating grief to your system, you won't have to pay. You can then also try his newest meal, which is so horrid he won't even describe it, and which he hasn't even tried himself yet. If you survive the thoroughly harrowing cuisine, you can either warn him of its danger or tell him it's delicious. If you choose the latter, he will sample the food and drop dead. The game implies that the man who gave him the recipes is Sir Roderick Ponce von Fontlebottom, a man from the game's equivalent of England. It's possible that the dishes are standard English cuisine like Bubble & Squeak or a Full English, with them only being considered disgusting due to cultural differences.

FoxTrot has a number of strips involving Peter accepting dares to put a ridiculous amount of Tabasco sauce on his Mexican food (and suffering the consequences).
They've actually done two variations on this. In one, Jason and Peter play a Name That Tune-esque game ("I can eat this taco with five squirts of hot sauce); in another, Peter does it to himself ("Who wants to see me eat this taco with eight squirts of hot sauce?!") as Paige and Jason look on, wryly remarking "Ah, the tears of a clown..."
One strip has both Peter and Jason loading up on Tabasco after both have been to the dentist. One wonders about what will happen when the novocaine wears off.
Jason also once played a prank on his father by dumping Tabasco sauce into his cup of coffee.

The Elder Scrolls Online has the story of Rallaume Lemonds, a self styled 'culinary crusader' who is implied to be a Breton, eating a variety of odd Argonian foods. Most of it probably more in the realm of Foreign Queasine (as most of the food is some kind of invertebrate Eaten Alive, befitting the Argonians' species origins as swamp-dwelling reptilians) but the final humdinger is Aojee-Sakka, a dish which involves eating sliced toad and cold soup simultaneously. This doesn't sound so terrible until you learn that the two dishes are horrifically virulent; the toad is a neurotoxin that causes uncontrolled seizure-like tremors and foaming at the mouth (followed by death) while the soup is loaded with enterotoxins that inflict agonizing stomach pain and uncontrollable vomiting (followed by death). The catch is, these two dishes are antidotes to one another, and the trick is to consume them in just the right proportions so as to not poison yourself to death. As for how this turns out, well...

Although not hot per se (although one variety can melt solid metal), Bianci's "Poison Cooking" technique in Reborn! (2004) can cause any food or later any object, to become dangerous to touch or lethal to injest, with the exception of the prior use of an "Iron Stomach" shot.

In A Prairie Home Companion episode of The Lives of The Cowboys called The Second Lefty, the titular character engages in a high-stakes game of Scrabble with Dusty. During the match the Second Lefty orders a whiskey, and soon after we hear a crunching sound. Dusty asks him not to chew his ice cubes while pondering his next move. The Second Lefty replies it wasn't ice; he was chewing the neck of the bottle.

"Tyler's Bullshit" from The Menu consists of undercooked lamb alongside inedible chopped shallots and leeks, topped with way too much half-melted butter sauce. Predictably, it is lambasted by a professional chef who actually knows what he's doing.

Warhammer 40,000: Orks regularly engage in a unique kind of eating contest where they attempt to eat a live squig. Bear in mind that squigs in general have More Teeth than the Osmond Family and are very hungry at all times, meaning that the contest is basically to eat a squig before it eats you. This is only one of many Ork cultural elements, dietary traits and hobbies that boil down to Testosterone Poisoning, to the point where a lot of Ork flyers path the fuel lines through the cockpit in case the pilot gets thirsty.

El Goonish Shive gives us the Pancake Mount Doom Meal - "A dozen flapjacks, a variety of fruit fillings, sides of bacon, sausage, hash browns, three kinds of syrup, and your choice of eggs" at the standard Greasy Spoon restaurant. Though the food itself is edible (and likely delicious), it's the quantity that pushes it into this territory. Naturally, only husky people have managed to finish it... and Grace.

Cult of the Lamb: The lamb can cook Grassy Gruel, Bowl of Poop, and Minced Follower Meat, but the worst thing they can make is Deadly Dish, which combines the main ingredients of all three. Any follower that consumes it will drop valuable items, but also have a 3/4 chance of instantly dropping dead. If the lamb eats it, they lose one normal heart, but gain a diseased heart. The main use for it is killing off elderly or dissenting followers if you don't have any other way to easily get rid of them. Grassy Gruel and Minced Follower Meat both have cult doctrines that remove their negatives effect if selected. Sometimes followers will actually ask you to feed them the Bowl of Poop in order to prove their loyalty to you, or out of a strange desire to know what it is like.

Team Fortress 2:
The game gives us the extremely rare Robo-Sandvich—it's made from bread-shaped chunks of sheet metal, screws, circuit boards, a blinking light, a switch, valve knobs, loose wires, and what look to be pieces of carpet. In spite of its sharp edges, unappetizing appearance, and more iron content than some of the game's maps, the Heavy can still eat it to heal his health completely.
Then there's the Festive Sandvich, which doesn't seem like much except it's gift-wrapped, and the Heavy doesn't bother to unwrap it before chowing down.
Though not implemented in the game as of yet, this mod turned community contribution has all the hallmarks of this trope. The only nod it has to actually being food is the presence of bread. The rest of it consists of Huntsman arrows, spy knives, minigun bullets, and a railroad spike. To top it all off, what was once a toothpick with an olive is now a needle from the syringe gun.

In one chapter of Voyages of the Wild Sea Horse, Ukyo tries to get back at her crewmates for teasing her about her preference for serving them okonomiyaki at most meals by serving up a banquet of "exotic delicacies" — bugs, snakes, monkeys and offal. To her dismay, almost everyone tucks in without hesitation, and even enjoy the meal... except for the hongeo-hoe.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
In "Canterlot Boutique", Pinkie Pie makes a batch of strawberry cinnamon cilantro cupcakes. One of them made the mail pony too nauseous to finish his route, and even Pinkie herself has trouble choking them down. Despite this, she still offers one to Rarity.
"Secrets and Pies" has Rainbow Dash bake a literal "humble pie" to eat as punishment for herself, as a way of apologizing for all those years of keeping her distaste for pie a secret from Pinkie Pie. It looks like a pastry version of Harmburger from Awful Hospital and is constructed from some kinda concrete with trash as filling. Pinkie describes it as a "smelly circular monstrosity" and is quick to stop Rainbow Dash from eating any.

Asterix:
In Asterix in Corsica, there's a cheese whose smell can knock out non-Corsicans; it also occasionally explodes. Likely a reference to Casu Marzu, which is commonly associated with Sardinia, but also made on Corsica.
In Asterix the Legionary, the secret of the Roman Army's success is discussed: The worse the food, the better the army as it keeps the men grumpy. On tasting the food (wheat, bacon and cheese cooked together to save time), Asterix comments that he didn't think the army was that powerful, along with similar commentaries from the rest of the squad... save for the Briton, who likes it.
In Asterix and the Laurel Wreath, Asterix and Obelix are sold as slaves to a Roman noble family, rather than to Caesar as they wanted. They try to get their master to return them by creating a concoction of whatever was in the kitchen, including soap and a whole chicken, feathers and all. They accidentally invent a Hideous Hangover Cure, which is exactly what he needed for his drunkard son. The side effects are... less than pleasant.

In the Monty Python's Flying Circus sketch "Trade Description Act" the police come to arrest a man for selling chocolates with disgusting and sometimes outright dangerous ingredients and not properly labeling them.
The Cherry Fondue is extremely nasty.
The Crunchy Frog contains a whole raw frog and is crunchy because it still has the bones in it.
The Ram's Bladder Cup is made of a literal ram's bladder and is garnished with lark's vomit (or mouse feces in a different version of the sketch).
Cockroach Cluster and Anthrax ripple are also mentioned.
The Spring Surprise contains a booby trap that stabs you through the cheeks.

Just about everything Miss Mush cooks in the Wayside School series.
Ironically, she's fine if she just cooks for one person. She cooks for over 300.
Specific dishes she's made include "Baloney-Os" (Oreo cookies with a slice of baloney in the center - Ms. Jules ate them while pregnant), a mystery mushroom dish (which seemed to look strange but actually not taste bad, though it had the side effect of making the eater zonk out and kiss whoever's nearest. It's implied that the students might not have minded it after seeing it tasted okay, but Ms. Jules made production of it stop) and potato salad (which also seemed to taste all right, but came to life when molded into the image of Mrs Gorf. It's not clear if this was a property of the potato salad or if it was more of Mrs. Gorf's evil magic.) She also made a pie filled with pepper, but that wasn’t for eating- it was for saving the students.

Banica Conchita from the Evillious Chronicles has a diet that consists mainly of this. Fittingly representing Gluttony in the Seven Deadly Sins arc, she was willing to eat just about anything, no matter how grisly or disgusting. This inevitably leads to cannibalism...and then cannibalism of the "auto" variety...

Balut, a boiled duck or chicken egg with a nearly-developed embryo inside. Although a popular snack in such countries as Vietnam, Cambodia and the Philippines, its unfamiliarity to most Westerners has made it a standard "gross-out" food challenge in such reality game shows as Survivor and Fear Factor. Unlike most examples, the dish itself is merely horrifying in concept and looks (its flavor is somewhere between a cooked egg and cooked chicken), but given what it is, it's actually not that much worse than the bird it would have become, and foreigners who can get past the aesthetics will enthusiastically eat it and ask for more.

Stinky tofu, popular in parts of China, lives up to its name. It smells like concentrated sewage mixed with vomit, and you can usually smell if a street stall is frying it from several blocks away. The proper fermentation process takes months, and enterprising street vendors have been known to take shortcuts... Notable in that stinky tofu proved to be the one food too unpalatable for Andrew Zimmern. While he found that a mild version sold by a street vendor to be delicious despite the bad smell, when he tried a much stronger version from a specialty restaurant, he found that he couldn't even swallow the first bite he tried due to the overwhelming rancid taste.

A very literal masochist's meal is prepared in MM!, when Mio attempts to make squid ink pasta. (Key word: attempts.) The first to try it is Tarou, the masochist who enjoys any pain or discomfort inflicted on him by a girl. Naturally, he loves it. Then a couple other people try it...

In the Firefly-esque webcomic Crimson Dark, the captain's chili has been described as volcanic. This also leads to one of the funniest moments in the comic.

Angel from Angel Beats! is the only person that would eat the Legendarily-spicy Mapo Tofu not as a side dish, but as the ONLY dish, and enjoy it, when it would make other, grown men cry from the pain. She even eats half the dish in one go when she got into trouble for eating in the Lunch Hall during classes.
A few other characters eat it during the show, and while they do find it incredibly hot, they also remark that it does really taste pretty good.
TK even ate all the Mapo Tofu (and only Map Tofu, by the looks of it) in the cafeteria during the special. Instead of being absurdly round like the other two cast members, he looks and sounds completely dried out, and enters and exits the bathroom multiple times. "My stomach is destruction..."

This is pretty much the point of the entirety of Oni cuisine in Urusei Yatsura. Even food that Lum and her family would describe as "bland" has been known to make humans breathe fire and run for the milk.

Kingdom of Loathing has all kinds of unpleasant foods, like brain-meltingly-hot chicken wings or centipede eggs, which inflict damage, substat-loss, or a negative status effect if you eat them. Dwarf bread is included as a shout-out to the Discworld example above, and although you have the option of eating it, you can also throw it at enemies to stun them. However, special mention goes to black pudding, which is described thusly: "This is either a sausage made of congealed animal blood, or an acidic underground-dwelling scavenging ooze. Either way, mmmm-yummy." Sure enough, if you try to eat it, it has a 35% chance of attacking you. There's actually a trophy you can earn for defeating 240 of them in combat... which takes about three straight months (real-world time) of stuffing your face with black pudding every day.
There are several meals and drinks that can only be created when your bartender-innabox or chef-innabox explodes. They're universally horrible things, such as the "white chocolate and tomato pizza" and the "tomato daiquiri". Consuming enough of these two get you the Weeping Pizza and Disgusting Cocktail trophies, respectively.
Another special mention must go to World's most unappetizing beverage, which is... you know.No really, what is it?It consists of hair cut from your own calf dissolved in depilatory cream.
The PVP revamp introduced "nailswurst", which is probably the closest thing on here to the page image, and "used beer". Yep. Neither of these gains you adventures, but they piss you off (giving you extra PVP fights.)

The two businessmen played by Key & Peele in this sketch start off ordering perfectly sensible soul food, but then feel the need to one-up each other with more esoteric orders until they're essentially ordering garbage.

In Bridge of Birds, improperly prepared porcupine meat — and when we say improper, we mean such as cutting the meat into pieces of the wrong shape — will kill you in a horrible way that we won't even go into here.
Well, maybe...it must be noted that "porcupine poisoning" doesn't actually happen to anyone in the book. Two characters claim that it happened to someone as part of a ruse. The whole scene reads like some finicky gourmet's preferences got mixed up with actual cautions, similar to those concerning fugu, to create an Urban Legend of epic proportions.

They've actually done two variations on this. In one, Jason and Peter play a Name That Tune-esque game ("I can eat this taco with five squirts of hot sauce); in another, Peter does it to himself ("Who wants to see me eat this taco with eight squirts of hot sauce?!") as Paige and Jason look on, wryly remarking "Ah, the tears of a clown..."

When a guy is trying to get in the Salty Spitoon:
In the infamous episode "Nasty Patty", in order to play a prank on who they think is a fake health inspector, Spongebob and Mr. Krabs create the titular Nasty Patty by adding seahorse radish, toenail clippings, and Volcano Sauce, and then dropping it in toilet water and then drying it with old gym socks.

Yoshiko Tsushima has her signature "Tears of a Fallen Angel", a takoyaki variant with a black outer shell and Tabasco instead of a squid filling. Ruby takes one bite and goes into Fire-Breathing Diner mode. She makes a variant in Love Live School Idol Festival ALLSTARS with "Tears of a Fallen Angel - Revolution", now with habanero sauce.

In another Star Trek: The Next Generation novel, Riker becomes violently ill (to the point where he has to be beamed directly to sickbay) from having lunch with Worf and forgetting that some Klingon foods are indigestible to humans (Dr. Crusher had given him a list). His reaction after being treated? "Bring on the next course."
