PA, I agree Spec that technically there isn't one food that will kill you or can be "bad" for you, unless you eat it all the time.
A few raw kidney beans can kill you stone dead. I suppose in that situation, it's not the food that is at fault but the preparation.

But being self-important I learned to do pretty much everything for myself (including cook stuff).
I produce results which I think are , and much better than -almost- anything else I've had.
The only thing I really like to cook are nachos - I make REALLY good beef nachos.
I make pasta and homemade meatsauce sometimes as well, that usually turns out fine.
I rather suspect I could cook most things, I just don't tend to have the time to mess with it, and I hate cleanup. I'd rather just do Chinese takeout, order a pizza, or go out.
