My cooking tragedies
Not my tragedy but my roommate while going through college years ago. It was our first Thanksgiving away from home and my roommate wanted to make a turkey. She had never cooked a turkey on her own and I was unable to help as I had to work. I gave her a recipe and explained how to cook the turkey. As I was leaving for work, I reminded her to make sure she cleaned the turkey and clean out the innards before cooking it. I thankfully came home from work early that day. As I entered the apartment the overwhelming scent of bleach hit me. I walk into the kitchen to find the turkey sitting in the sink soaking in bleach....my roommate was trying to clean the turkey!
This cooking story really happened even though it sounds far fetched. Its one of the funniest things that I'll never forget.
