Dish names we don't want to say out loud

Restaurants and bars are giving their dishes names that are childish, punny or just too embarrassing to order

Advertising

It happens all the time—a menu lists a dish or drink that sounds delicious, but the name is so utterly absurd or embarrassing to say out loud that we never, ever order it. There are dishes that sound like they belong on a children's menu or were named by a five-year-old. Some dish names are dirty puns that you'd never utter in front of your mother. Some are even racist or sexist. From "sandos" to "Cameltoe," here are 20 restaurants and bars serving dishes and drinks we just don't want to order.
