We don’t know what to make of this meal and neither did the cook – the only 9 funny reactions you need to read
We’re not saying that everything we’ve ever cooked has been a culinary masterpiece – or even edible – but there’s a big difference between burning the potatoes and deliberately creating a meal that could be used as a prop in a particularly nasty slasher flick. Whoever made one unusual offering to Rate My Plate must have done it to give the internet something to laugh at, mustn’t they? The alternative is that they actually wanted to eat it and we find that very hard to believe.

Surely nobody actually thought “D’you know what would go down a treat right now? Potatoes and sausages! But I won’t fry the sausages, or even grill them. No, no, no – I’ll boil the f_ck out of them and cover them in some delicious cornflour.”
The internet’s reaction has been strongly negative – and very funny.

I would rather watch my grandparents having sex every day for the rest of my life than ever try a bite of this meal

I for one welcome the new dish to be eaten every year on 29th of March in thanks to the mother & father of Brexit, Theresa & Dave.#BrexitHoliday https://t.co/AuxYEAWvWS

We weren’t the only ones struggling to believe this was someone’s actual choice of meal, as @theollypaton‘s tweet shows.
I’m not having this – no way someone was planning on eating that. They should have to send a video of them eating it as proof they aren’t just taking the piss

However, like a judge on Junior Masterchef, Twitter user Ciaran McKeogh found something positive to say.
Fair play, very creative use of Vaseline as a condiment

Well done, Ciaran. It can’t have been easy.
