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. 🤣

Making fried bread and then taking it to the living room to eat it. Started thinking the neighbors were making stir-fry but the skillet of oil was on fire, flames shooting up. Glad I got it put out before it damaged anything. A box of salt to the rescue. Then called maintenance to change the smoke alarm (it was just put in about a month before and was defective)…they were at my apartment within 30 minutes.

@Primnproper you bet it was. I don’t fry very often but when I do when I am finished I make sure to pull the skillet off of the burner and then put a lid on it.
