If you think you can’t cook, be sure to check out The Food Network’s latest competition show. Some of the contestants on that show managed to mess up canned soup.

Worst Cooks in America is a cooking boot camp. Twenty four people made examples of their typical dishes for Chef Anne Burrell and Chef Beau MacMillan to try. The chefs then selected six of the worst cooks to be on each other’s team. They will undergo training in order to cook meals good enough that Chef Anne  and Chef Beau can pass them off as their own to a panel of food professionals.

The first episode (of 6) featured pasta made with olives and pineapple, a chocolate pancake that had to be broken in half,  peanut butter encrusted fish, asparagus that was served without the tips, and several other amusing dishes. I can’t wait to see if these chefs improve!

It’s also a great boost to kitchen confidence. Even on my worst days I’m not that bad!

    Pasta. With olives and pineapple. Wow. On what level can that possibly have seemed like a good idea?

    Her reasoning was that pineapple would add “crunch.” Forget how it would taste….
