Cooking for kids is often a thankless endeavour.

Even if you manage to find time in your busy parenting schedule to prepare a full meal, there’s a solid chance your dining patrons (aka children) may find something wrong with it. And God forbid you accidentally make a real mistake because it will not be forgotten.

Fortunately, the funny moms and dads of Twitter can relate. We’ve rounded up 27 funny tweets about parents’ cooking fails.


The most rewarding part of making a delicious, balanced meal for my 2-year-old is when she ignores it and eats Trix off the floor instead.

We had lunch at a friend’s house today. Turns out my kids aren’t picky eaters. I’m just a horrible cook.

It takes my kids 20 minutes to find their shoes but give them 5 seconds and they’ll find a single flake of parsley in the dinner they now refuse to eat.

Son: What’re we having for dinner?

Husband: I dunno, buddy. Probably something healthy.

If every day you want someone--who hasn't tried what you cooked--to tell you that you've made the worst dinner IN THE WORLD, then parenting is for you.

Made gnocchi for dinner tonight, to try to introduce the toddler to something new.

Did he like it?

Gno.

Over cooked frozen pizza. Told the kids it was the "extra crispy" kind. My 4yo says, "Ooooooh! Fancy!" #pizza#distracted

If I make one side of dinner is overcooked and one side is undercooked, that averages out to me being a really good cook, right?

Today's entertainment was watching my 15mo refuse to eat the pancake I'd made him only to beg for & devour the breakfast I'd gotten myself.

8-year-old: My spaghetti tastes funny.

Me: You didn't put any sauce on it.

Today I picked up a turkey that my son will refuse to eat because everything I cook is gross and can he go to grandma's house?
