The 18 Most Relatable First World Food Disasters

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Texas chapter.

At one time or another, we have all been standing in the kitchen getting ready to enjoy a good meal or a snack, when all of the sudden something goes terribly, terribly wrong. Though these gifs may not give a completely accurate representation of the trauma you experienced, you can at least take comfort knowing that you are not alone.

1. Dunking a cookie into a glass of milk, letting it sit for too long and then half of it breaks off and sinks to the bottom.

2. When you order a crispy taco and by the time it gets to you, half of the taco is soggy from lying on its side.
