You may be an amazing cook, or you might consider yourself a terrible chef. Either way, I guarantee you're a better chef than these hilarious memes portray. Fat Tuesday is all about eating richer and more hearty before Lent, but the only hearty eating these terrible chefs will be doing is through a takeout menu.
The photo gallery of terrible chefs was put together by the fine folks at Buzzfeed. Marvel at the non-existent culinary abilities of the guy who somehow set his pasta on fire. Let your jaw drop at the ineptitude of the guy who let his pizza slip right through the grill in the oven. Have yourself a chuckle over the person who let their cupcakes melt into each other.
A word of advice: if you can't tell what something is when it comes out of the oven, you probably shouldn't put it anywhere near your mouth this Fat Tuesday or any other day of the week.
