i once triedto make a chocolate cake (when I was 6 or 7), and I put in a few tablespoons of baking soda ('cos i wanted it to be reeeeeeeally fluffy and light).
however it ended up as a chocolatey coloured slab about 3/4 of an inch high (maybe even a whole inch!) that tasted overwhelmingly of baking soda. I think I didn't put enough flour in it.
i still ate it though, but nobody else could help but spit it out and try not to gag.
since then it's been only delicious grub from me
Edit: also, my great aunt's favourite meal was sardines boiled with a tin of tomatoes, beans and a couple of spuds. Serves two, only uses one pan
When I was at university, two dozy bints i lived with used to have (as a treat) brown spaghetti, brown pitta bread, boiled broccli and kidney beans over the spaghetti.
they would put the spag/veg mix into the pitta breads. I think they thought it was continental.
My mum once cooked a prawn curry (bad enough), but she thought she'd be subtle and instead of garlic, she used hummus. Fucking hummus! I wasn't laughing, that's for sure.
