All my life I really hated it, I dont want to hurt her feelings...but after we eat I always go out to McDonalds and get a burger.

NASTY!
 
My mom is a good cook but sometimes, she makes little mistakes with food. when it's not really good, I say "That's not so tasty but you made it with your heart, at least you tried to cook something good. Maybe next time, it will be better."
I can't help myself feeling sorry for your mother not cooking well.
 
I am honest with my mom. Dont be rude, just give suggestions though or try helping her in the kitchen. Give her recipe book! I cant stand my moms cooking either, its mostly so gross. I am the best cook though so thank goodness for that!
Ive always gave my mom a look and she knows I wont eat it. But she thinks im just picky but really its her cooking.
 
Help out with the cooking and make a couple small changes that would make the meal taste better for you. Or offer to cook once week.
 
That sounds pretty mean. I don't think your mom would be anywhere close to being happy if you tell her that. There are few things and the way you say it can hurt your mom's feelings.

1. You don't just tell her "Mom, your cooking sucks." or "Mom, I think you should get a cook book."
2. You don't go out there and just grab a burger.
3. It's mean of you to say that you hated it all your life, although deep down you yourself know it does.
4. If you loose your mother someday, you will realize how wrong you were and how you wished you could take your words back about this.
5. She cooks because she cares about you. If she didn't, she wouldn't even bother to even cook. She's doing her best.

Here's a thought about your problem: I think it's your mom's problem that maybe she didn't learn how to cook. How about talking to her privately and tell her NICELY and make sure YOU MEAN IT BECAUSE YOU CARE "Mom, please dont get me wrong, I hope you won't get mad at me if I tell you this. And please don't get upset. I really love you, but I don't think I love your food."

First: I think she would laugh at thay. Second: That's a smooth way of telling her. Third: You're going on through this by yourself and make sure that you're telling her really nicely that it won't hurt her feelings.

However: If she's sensitive and the next day she starts acting weird the next day, tell her "Mom, I'm just telling you the best I can and I want to be honest with you. Why do you need to act weird all of the sudden?"

If she's been really weird to you and sounding mad with you and mean with you, tell her "I gain pounds all because of eating McDonald's everyday, Mom." and run up to your room and lock the door.

I hope it'll work. Wish you luck. Remember, don't be mean to her.
 
Dont tell her.

Just tell her she needs rest and offer to cook the dinner.
 
take her out someplace nice for dinner and just have a general chat and then gradually build up to how her cooking is and politely say mum i love you alot but im just not that keen on your cooking.
