50 Hysterical Failed Cooking Moments That Would Make Gordon Ramsay Faint

Maybe it's better if these people had a few cooking lessons first.

There are tons of great places to find good food out there, but there's just nothing that beats a warm, freshly cooked meal made with love and effort at home. No wonder many of us put on the apron and try to channel our inner Gordon Ramsay from time to time.

Unfortunately, the truth is that not everybody is naturally gifted in the kitchen.

Some people excel because cooking has been ingrained in their minds ever since they were young at home. Others manage well by being great at following instructions in a cookbook.

However, there are a few whose life skills simply don't belong in the kitchen. No matter how hard they try, there are just some people with whom the kitchen does not agree.

These are the individuals you'd rather have waiting for the food rather than making it. Anything other than that, and you might end up ordering takeout.

Some of their kitchen fails involve simply burning the food here and there, or a little oversalting or no salting at all, while others may be complete disasters, like destroying the entire kitchen.

Keep scrolling and check out the cooking fails that the brave individuals were willing to post.

It's good to try new things. That's how you learn about them.

When it comes to food, though, sometimes it can just be better to order takeout rather than ending up having tears for dinner. Better yet, have someone assist you.

You know what they say: two heads are better than one. It lessens the chances of absolute failure.
