For those who love to cook and experiment in the kitchen, the internet is a great source of inspiration. People online love to share their recipes and look for new ideas to change their eating habits or surprise someone by serving a delicious meal. And the variety of recipes you can try and new things to learn about certain cuisine is endless.

However, not everyone likes or is capable of following every step of a recipe. Having this in mind, Reddit users shared the most terrible recipe reviews in I Didn't Have Eggs: Terrible recipe reviews. These include people changing the ingredients of the recipe, mixing the wrong ingredients, or… not even trying the recipe and leaving a bad review.

Which one of these reviews did you find most hilarious? Did you also have to leave a bad review? Leave your thoughts in the comments down below!

OMG, get yourself some gochujang! It's my fave hot sauce, because it's not just heat with no flavor. Instead, it's sweet and savory with a nice, mild heat. Great on sandwiches, burgers, hotdogs, meatloaf...

Applesauce can be a substitute for eggs in a cake, but it can't be a substitue for milk - just use soy/almond etc milk ._.

For dum-dum Americans like myself, 400g of sugar is a cup and a half. The idiot who didn't follow the recipe used only half a cup.

Buttermilk is the best to use for making ranch dressing lol so I guess they're one step closer to making a great homemade ranch. I'm imagining them dipping chicken or fries in buttermilk and wondering why it doesn't it taste like ranch :P

First time making anything: follow the recipe. After that, you can change it. Also, there's nothing wrong if you don't like the recipe, but considering people share them for free, there's no need to be a dïck with a crappy review.

With experience, you can often make changes even if you haven't made the recipe. Example: If a recipe for baked goods doesn't include salt, I'm adding it, knowing that salt enhances sweetness and overall flavor. And I'll always add coffee to any dessert with chocolate.

30 Times People Didn’t Follow A Recipe And Then Complained About It Online (2024)

FAQs

Why is it important to follow a recipe correctly? ›

Recipes are guides for cooking. It is important to read the whole recipe before you begin cooking. This helps you know how the dish is made. All recipes start with the name of the dish.

How many people search for recipes online? ›

The web is now the dinnertime go-to as 62% of people find their recipes online, overtaking the 59% who prefer traditional cookbooks and the 47% who get most of their ideas from friends and family. In fact, the Internet is such a staple in our lives that only 8% of people say they've never used it for cookery help.

Is it important to follow a recipe accurately when you are baking? ›

When you think about it, baking is simply chemical reactions between ingredients to produce the desired result. For the chemical reaction to happen, the ratio of ingredients has to be correct and that's why accurate measurements are important.

Why do people not share their recipes? ›

Some have gotten badly burned by others preparing the recipe in question to steal their thunder at the next potluck event.
