Perhaps you just want to forgive your partner for something they did, or you are bored. You've found your perfect recipe and are willing to spend the entire evening making it a reality. The problem is that a recipe can be deceiving. Even those icebergs that threatened to sink the Titanic.

Now you are as blind as the ship's captain, headed towards disaster. A kitchen disaster.
We compiled some of the most hilarious examples of food expectations and reality to make it easy for you to feel like an Iron Chef. We all need encouragement. These dishes are so bizarre that you have to wonder if anyone was brave enough even to try them. Scroll down to see why it can sometimes be better to order pizza and vote on your favorite entries.
