Cooking is a learnt skill that most people need to develop at some point in their lives. It's important for someone to be able to make a meal or two for themselves to survive and get by in life. Sometimes a person might even need to be able to cook for someone else. This might seem intimidating, but luckily there are so many online recipes there to help people succeed. This doesn't always go as planned, though.

Online recipes contain a simple list of ingredients along with step-by-step instructions on how to make the meal. They can be as simple as three steps or as complicated as they can be. Many of them are honestly pretty fool-proof. Clearly, some people can't follow directions, though, because the comments and reviews on these recipes are absurd. They leave people wondering how these folks got as far as they have in life.

Here we have collected 25 reviews filled with purely ridiculous comments, suggestions, and complaints. See just how bad some people are at following simple directions with these awful recipe reviews.
