M.P.O--I have had hair in the throat experience. It's not good.
And I bit into a roach in a Chinese restaurant. I heard a crunch sound when I bit into it, and carefully took it out of my mouth on a napkin, so my date didn't notice. I looked at the little black fucker and rolled it in my napkin and put it in my sport coat pocket. I didn't want to make my date sick, knowing how sensitive she was. I finished the meal as if nothing happened and she was not the wiser. I never told her.

MPO: Well, it could just be me..
But you said the grossest thing you ever had in your mouth was a hair? I would rather have a single human hair in my mouth than a stomach full of clear snot.
(Besides, I'd just tell myself the light red hair came from the crown of a beautiful redhead with flowing silk like curls and it would be all good. Not to much I can do with the mental image of clear snot)

I tend to be rather susceptible to colds and flus and thus, (roughly) every two to three months I vomit up large amounts of what looks like "clear snot".

Century eggs
Gulliver mentioned them and they are the grossest things I've ever eaten. Basically, they're rotten eggs. Yep, eggs buried in
manure. Traditionally they were buried fo a century, dug up and then you'd eat them. Now they speed up the process by putting them in an incubator. Yummy . . . luckily I had them in a soup while I was in Hong Kong, so they got lost with everything else. Still . . . yuck!

Aaron: Did you ever try Century Eggs?
Buried for latterly a century where they would spoil and rot and then you eat them.
I tried the synthetic, 20th Century mass produced kind from a little street vendor in Singapore.

Yes, that title sounded like something really bad was about to follow.
I think the worst thing I've had was a Kurdish delicacy called "head and foot soup."
Also, I know someone who was eating what she thought were olives beneath an olive tree. Let's just say goat droppings are also small, black, and round.

and I tried to clear my sinus' only, to my absolute horror a bugger landed in the back of my throat. Of course I spit it out, but alas, I'll have to admit it was a booger for about 2.5 seconds as it was launched into a kleenx and thrown away.
