Being experimental with food is one thing, and committing a culinary atrocity is another. And if there is one downside of the digital age, it’s that many people tend to fall into the trap of the latter for the sake of shock value and potential virality. 

These photos are just some of the many examples of people’s crimes involving food. Some aren’t so bad, but you’ll find a good handful to cringe and shake your head for. 

Bored Panda previously compiled a similar list, and unfortunately, we’re likely not running out of them anytime soon.
