It’s fair to say that during isolation we have all become quite domesticated. From baking cookies and cakes to trying our hand at bread, the kitchen has seen the wins and absolute fails of 2020. We have picked the most tragic isolation cooking attempts to make you feel a little better about your loses.

1. These guys were literally watching their donuts cook and still managed to burn them. 

2. We all know the most basic adult dish to cook is pasta, and this poor person can’t even nail that. 

P.S. You need to add water not just light the pot on fire 

3. Whoopi Goldberg promised us all she would never go in the kitchen again, but she was starving (fair point, a girl gotta eat). Whipping up a quick dinner, Whoopi’s two ingredient creation consisted of chopped garlic and a plate of pasta…. Mmmmm delicious. 

4. This “How to not cook banana bread” tutorial with Lucy Hale is honestly how we all feel after baking. You think you nailed it, and then you realise you have a massive sinkhole in your creation. Better luck next time Lucy. 

5. The next fail is one we all know too well, when your batch of cookies just turns into one giant cookie. Octavia Spencer gave a batch of peanut butter cookies a go, and they turned out like this… (I’d still eat them). 

6. One of the simplest dishes to cook is chucking a frozen bag of chips into the oven (or an air fryer). Not sure whether this dude is a genius or missed the mark, but he’s ended up with some sort of chip pancake. 

If you’re feeling a little defeated in the kitchen lately, don’t worry, the entire world is with you. Maybe it’s time to put down the utensils, turn off the oven and just order some takeout.
