What Has Been Your Greatest Fail In The Kitchen?

Mine was baking a cake and baking powder and bicarbonate soda was in the same looking pots by the same company an I picked up the soda by mistake and the cake tasted of washing up detergent and I had to start again. 🤣

My mom sent me to the store for cherry peppers for some Malaysian dish she was making; the recipe called for 13 of them.

Having never seen a cherry pepper before in my life, I messed up and bought habaneros instead. 😬

@thepreposterouspanda not being a pepper person I take it they were much hotter? Lol

@Primnproper Much. 😅 Cherry peppers are 2,500-5,000 on the Scoville scale. Habaneros are 150,000 to 325,000 depending on environmental factors and such. 🥵

@Primnproper Yup! One of those nights we all took a bite and then collectively decided to order a pizza. 😂
