Cooking is a skill that some possess and others do not. Baking is also a skill that is arguably even more challenging. While some people are natural chefs and others hate cooking, at some point in time, everyone will have to cook something, whether it be for themselves or someone else. That's why online recipes are so great. Online recipes allow people to learn how to cook in a simple manner. Online recipes provide a list of ingredients and a step-by-step guide on how to make the thing a person wants to make.

The thing with recipes, though, is that people need to be able to follow the steps, which should be simple, but it isn't so easy for some. This becomes apparent when reading the reviews of online recipes. Some of the reviews left on recipes are just absurd. Whether it's people making insane alterations or people who don't even know how to operate an oven, the things people do in the kitchen are alarming.

Reddit's /r/ididnthaveeggs is a subreddit where people can share all of the worst recipe reviews they have seen online. Some of them are just upsetting, and kind of concerning. Here are 25 of them making us shake our heads.
