Fantastic Food Fails: Why Some People Are Just Not Meant to Go in the Kitchen

There are three types of people in this world: those who can cook, those who can't, and those who should stay as far away from the kitchen as possible. We're not just talking about the ability (or lack thereof) to whip up a delicious meal. We're talking about the people who might burn your house down trying to make a bowl of cereal—people who can't even pour a cup of water without turning the kitchen into a war zone.

It takes talent to prepare a mouth-watering meal, but it takes a whole different kind of talent to completely destroy several kitchen appliances while attempting to make a salad. In this listicle, we salute those poor souls who seem cursed with the inability to prepare any type of food without it turning into a life-threatening situation. We salute you, but we also gently push you out of the kitchen before things get out of hand.
