At some point in everyone's lives, they must learn how to cook for themselves and probably for others, too. It's kind of important for someone to be able to make a meal or two for themselves to survive and get by in life. And if a work potluck ever comes along, being able to take part in that is always nice. Cooking, and especially baking, can seem intimidating to those who don't know how, but it's made easy with the help of the web. Online recipes simplify things to help people succeed in all of their cooking endeavours… or they should.

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 need to be. Many of them are pretty fool-proof, or so it seems. Clearly, some people can't follow directions, though, because the comments and reviews on these recipes are absurd. The reviews under many of these simple recipes leave people wondering how someone made it this far in life while making mistakes like these.

Here, we have collected 25 reviews filled with purely ridiculous comments, suggestions, and complaints. These reviews, questions, and comments prove how bad some people are in the kitchen, and they show who cannot be trusted around a stove.
