My cousin fried potatoes in wine instead of oil once. And her brother ate them still. I only took one and got dizzy.

I once spread leftover bolognese sause on roasted bread and cheese. Bad idea.

I think she means that she didnīt put the mash in the fridge. Milk has a tendency to get sour and icky when left for several hours in room temperature...

Fish sticks, pickles, green paprika, rice and a particulary cheap īn nasty bearnaise sauce. Not a good combination...

My worst experiment is not with food, but with drinks.

I don't like whisky and I was trying to find a way to drink more than a millimeter per day.
Not listening to whisky lovers, I decided to give a try to whisky-coca.
In my fridge: no real coke.
Only diet coke...
OMG... OMFG... OMFFFFG...
This was the worst ... thing I ever tasted.

If you mix whiskey (scotch) and Kaluha (coffe liquer) it tastes like Dr Pepper!

Why? They are better that way than being boiled. It's better to roast them on a barbeque, until they turn yellow outside, then they're well done.

Bailey's and coke have an interesting reaction. They form some sort of solid froth, pretty much like dried out nescafe frappe froth. It's taste is deadly of course.

I personally hate the mix of beer with whiskey.

There is a difference between prawns (the bigger, pink ones) and shrimps (the little, grey ones).
According to my french/english dictionnary, shrimps (ittle grey, usually eaten cold, in salads) are the one I mean.
Because prawns are ok roasted, very delicious, I tried with shrimps. Not good.

Thems mean scampi's when refering to prawns and gamba's when refering to king prawns. (I think, confuses me too)

Precisely. That's how I have done it since, and it works perfectly.

The other way makes it inevitable that the egg will harden around the rice, which makes for a weird mix.

When ever I go to those places where they cook at your table they cook the egg first before mixing it in. Sometimes they do make a ring out of the rice and fry it in the middle, still the egg is cooked.

MY father-in-law bbqs his steaks with waaaaaaaaaaaay too much garlic salt, and he makes a dish with artificial crab meat for my vegitarian sister-in-law that is nasty.

Not sour, but it gets filled with nasty microbes that can make you ill. We're warned not to eat anything that is left out for more than two hours. Anyway, it's been two days at this point. I really should throw them out.

Indeed, once you open a tin, you should empty it. I doubt it's harmfull to leave it like that for a day though.

Aluminum is fine. Opened tin cans make the contents taste like tin if you keep it. Itīs something to do with oxygen reacting with the tin IIRC.

They only make you ill if you never eat them. Although two hours in Florida is probably the bacterial equivalent of a week in Britain.

Aluminums fine for most things. What you want to watch out for is acidic foods and metals, and never any acidic foods around copper. Copper and food acids = death.

You guys are funny. Thankfully, I was raised to cook with my parents, so I've avoided most of these missteps. I remember the first time I made my own pasta with chopped garlic and oil sauce back in middle school, how proud I was.

Nowadays, my cooking is limited to ramen, and it's kinda hard to screw that up.
