30 Times People Managed To Mess Up Christmas Dinner So Bad, It Had To Be Shared Online
Rockin' around the Christmas tree, let the Christmas spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie and we'll do some caroling
That pumpkin pie is all I’ve been thinking about for the past three weeks. Well, the pumpkin pie, the gingerbread cookies, the fancy holiday cheeses, the eggnog, the Christmas roast and the mulled wine. Basically, the food is one of my favorite parts of Christmas!
But when it comes to holiday cooking, many of us tend to get a bit too ambitious. Oh, a new recipe that I’ve never made before with 50 steps? Sounds great for me! (Even though the most cooking I’ve done in the past 2 months was baking brownies from a box mix…)
It’s natural to want to impress our loved ones with holiday treats and to try to go above and beyond with our festive feasts. But it’s always important to know our limitations in life, or we might end up with Santa cookies that look like demons or cheesecake that appears to have been in a nuclear explosion. Down below, we’ve gathered some of the most hilarious and tragic holiday cooking fails from this subreddit dedicated to painful food pics to help you pandas feel a little bit better about your slightly burnt Christmas turkey.
Be sure to upvote the pics that make you want to order takeout next Christmas, and let us know in the comments if you’ve ever experienced any holiday cooking fails that your family will never let you live down. Then, if you’re interested in viewing even more unfortunate fails people have experienced on Christmas, check out this Bored Panda article next!

This is a such a cráp, lazy article that doesn't even deliver what it says it will. Most of these are not people "messing up Christmas dinner". Few of them are anything to do with Christmas dinner at all, and many of them aren't even fails. Pathetic, BP, even by your very low standards.
Only maybe half met any reasonable definition of "fail". The others were creative and in a lot of cases pretty cute.
Most of this can be summarised by one word: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Edit: Of the bad things that is, some are ok
