Today, after a long day of cleaning, I decided to make a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch. Reaching for what I thought was Pam I coated my bread with spray and put my sandwich in the pan. Pledge makes a great looking sandwich, but the lemony flavor tastes like crap. FML

Today, I tried to make a grilled cheese sandwich for myself, but as soon as I started, my mom rushed into the kitchen and criticized me for making it "wrong". She then made the sandwich for me. It tasted significantly worse than when I make them. FML

Today, my lovely boyfriend decided to make grilled cheese on his own for the first time in months. Apparently, within that time span he forgot that plastic doesn't go well with prolonged heat. Goodbye favorite pan and spatula. FML

Today, I was halfway through eating a what I though was a delicious sandwich, when I turned it over and saw nasty green mold on the bread. FML

Today, my kids tried to make grilled cheese by turning the toaster sideways. When all was done, it all flew out onto the kitchen floor. Both my kids and my husband left the mess there for me to clean up when I got home. FML

Today, by being clumsy when putting my bread slices on a plate, I invented a sensational new type of sandwich: The Nutella-Salmon-Garlic Double-Decker. FML

Today, while working, a woman complained that she didn't ask for sauce on her sandwich. After examining the sandwich, I realized it was just melted cheese. When I told her, she threw the sandwich at me. FML

Tasty smell test failed

Today, after a week of wondering why my room smelled terrible, I found the culprit: a moldy sandwich I'd hidden under my bed during a movie night to avoid sharing it with my brother. I don’t know what’s worse - the smell or the fact that I was outsmarted by a sandwich. FML

Today, I got popcorn when getting groceries. I was excited to see popcorn butter spray on sale and decided to try it. Excited, I made some popcorn while I went to use the can. Butter sprayed like an aerosol can all over my desk and floor. Now, my apartment smells like a movie theater and there's butter EVERYWHERE! FML

Today, I decided to make myself a nice meal. I bought expensive pasta and sauce etc. It looked delicious, I decided the finishing touch would be some parmesan cheese. I grabbed the bag and threw a handful of cheese on my meal. The cheese was about 98% mould. FML

YDI for using PAM normally to make grilled cheese. Try some BUTTER, or a butter spread~not aerosolized oil.

Why is your Pledge by your PAM?

Just for the record: Pam= non-stick cooking spray meant to be used on cooking surfaces ONLY. Pledge= fake-lemon smelling cleaning spray, NOT to be used on food products. This guy is clearly an idiot. Who the hell sprays Pam on their bread? Has he ever heard of butter spray? BTW, butter pray comes in a bottle with a spray pump, not an aerosol can.

Agreed, why spray Pam on the bread and not on the pan....

what's with using the word retard? So, she used PAM. Big deal. Calling someone a retard because you think they did something stupid makes you look like the world's biggest tool.

My friend actually did this when she was making eggs........ She couldn't figure out why the entire kitchen smelled like lemons lol

If you actually read the FML you'd see that the OP had just finished a "long day of cleaning," which would probably mean the Pledge was out. That's why he grabbed it instead of the Pam, which is significantly less stupid than keeping cleaning supplies in the kitchen.

I feel your pain! When I was a kid, my Dad once put his hemorrhoid cream in the my toothpaste tube's box. I didn't notice until I started brushing.

YDI for not reading the can before you spray your food with it. Also, how the heck did you come to taste the lemon in the spray? You would think the smell when you sprayed it would have been a dead giveaway. So, now you are 2 times the moron!!!!
