Ok at least this one is good

ROTF.

Haha! That’s funny.

“Didn’t have lettuce, so threw in some rocks instead. Terrible, chipped a tooth. 1⭐️”

what are these people.

Nice burn there, Courtney.

Well, they both have the letter "C". It's the same thing.

So many of these people have 2 brain cells fighting for their lives

Just use Decaf coffee silly.

Wayne hasn't made it yet in the world but gives himself three gold stars for being present. But to be fair, the world is hard, so why shouldn't he?

They think one black liquid can substitute for another? Genius!

If cooked rice makes your dish watery, try draining the rice first?

Replaced a sugar (molasses) with a salt (soy sauce) and wonders why it's tastes of salt and disappointment.

Next try: cucumbers.

Before the internet, I had no idea how many people had main character syndrome. EVERYONE! ATTENTION! JOHN IS ON A DIET. EVERYONE TAKE DOWN YOUR RECEIPIES THAT WILL MAKE HIM GAIN WEIGHT!

Dandelions?

Low oxalate diet???

Wait, when you hear Americans say "chocolate pudding' is it just chocolate custard? This is brand new information to me.

He would make a nice salad for breakfast?

Something missing. No poo Poirot!

It's unfortunate that you are something of a wuckfit, Marissa

Bro did Demi just insult traditional Chinese cooking!? Chinese people, RISE UP WITH ME AND COOK IT THE TRADITIONAL WAY!

I do agree with this, though. I have so many recipes bookmarked where the author feels they have to give their life story before actually getting to the recipe.

Sounds like a once and done response, but the sad thing is that people like Daddy-O and some of the others above probably lie awake in the pit of the night with these kinds of online interactions repeating traumatically through their heads.

I don't think this one deserves mockery. They're fully admitting it was their own fault, and providing information many people might not know. Homemade caramel gets really really hot! I make it at least once a year and still manage to forget this on occasion. Can't tell you how many times I've burnt the unholy hell out of my tongue trying to taste the stuff too soon.

"I changed everything about the recipe and it was delicious. 5 stars." These comments happen too often 😂

Yea Liz, or order takeout.

Behave!

This is too familiar. I tried cracking an egg on what was aperfect pb&j sndwich. It added nothing. The egg was so runny and the bread got soggy. Need to stop arbitrarily adding eggs to things...

From "Homemade Peach Cake" to "Store-bought Strawberry Cake"

Oh snap!

Again... another example of people not understanding that many times, ingredients are added for what they do chemically to the entire dish rather than for the immediate taste.

Substitutes an ingredient for beans and wonders why the recipe tastes like beans. People like that make me wonder…

Maybe skip the Ambien, since you are cooking in your sleep as a result?

Classy response.

Maybe the recipe writer should have mentioned all of the 3,876,432 other ingredients NOT to use. Would that have made it more clear? Just trying to be helpful.

Egg substitute. I use it for baking since one of my coworkers is vegan, but I've tried cooking it up by itself just to see what it's like. Comes out close enough, especially if you're already used to not eating chicken eggs.

Maybe this was Omer's way of saying he roux'nd the roux.

What a jerk

So, five stars for the treats, one star for the owner

I learned this one the hard way in Home Ec class, where we were required to at least taste everything we made. We encountered baking powder for the first time in a recipe for muffins, and assumed it was an error because we’d never heard of it, and so used baking soda instead. Our muffins didn’t rise, and came out like hard, dry hockey pucks. We all tasted as required then tossed the rest out. We were lucky our teacher recognized our error and explained it to us. I know I never made that mistake again, and I assume my teammates never did, either. That was a good (hard, dry) learning experience!

You can medicate crazy, but you can't cure stupid 🤣

First rule of a successful dinner party, never cook a recipe for the first time. Always serve something you are familiar with and know how to cook properly.

I mean, it's just a GUESS...

I followed the recipe exactly except where I didn't.

Sometimes improvisation leads to miracles. (But more often it leads to disasters as seen above and below).

Then why several tries?

Not meant to eat bacteria....

These people DO realize that plants were once alive, too, but by the time they are cooked that they are then 'cooked dead food'? No... too much to wrap a brain around that's already too busy memorizing other people's soundbites.

Eggs are literally what makes baked goods good.
