Not everyone enjoys baking and cooking, and nearly every mishap you’re about to witness on this list had a plan in place before it happened. After finding a recipe, someone went to Walmart or another store to get all the ingredients, and they then tried their best.
Unfortunately, as the aspiring bakers and cooks on this list discovered the hard way, sometimes giving it your all is insufficient. See some of the funniest baking and cooking fails—from startling mistakes to bewildering mishaps—by scrolling through. The next time you’re in the kitchen, make a list of things not to do.
1. Baby spinach

Estimated Price: $20*
What transpired was the creation of an eerie infant from spinach.
Google searches for “spinach baby recipes” turned up nothing, so we’re curious as to how exactly this guy came up with this. The dough appears to have been baked to perfection, so it may taste excellent, but the appearance is really strange.

This baby spinach looks like it could have been in the Leprechaun movie, running after Jennifer Aniston. Well done to the individual for consuming their vegetables, despite how ugly they may appear in this picture.
2. How and why

Estimated Price: $5*
What transpired was that a messy kitchen’s spaghetti caught fire.
The first two things that came to mind when seeing this monstrosity were how and why. Someone tried cooking spaghetti by setting it ablaze. This picture shows that spaghetti works just as well as anything you could buy at Home Depot to ignite a fire.

Given how filthy the kitchen is as well, the entire image is unsettling. This place is chaotic, dirty, and has a fire. We wouldn’t want to eat dinner here. It remains a mystery how this happened and why it happened.
