This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff
United States
These are lovely
Today, my wife made me moist cat food burgers as a prank. I didn't have the heart to tell her that they tasted better than the ones she usually makes. FML

Good guy husband. You might have needed to arrange funeral plans if you said it.

How the hell can she screw up burgers? Meat. Salt. Pepper. Fire. It isn't rocket surgery.

you could have gotten her to go for cooking classes...

"Wow babe, these burgers are the best you've made! What'd you do different?"

Lets hope she doesn't read FML.

so does that mean you ate the whole thing?

Why don't you suggest (in the most subtle way possible, of course) that you two should take a cooking class together?

Or he could start making the burgers! My husband always cooks them. He loves his grill time!

This is the story of a newly wed couple living decades ago in the distant land of New Jersey. The husband was quite the culinary adventurer and prepared for his lovely wife one night a peach meatloaf. Now, a sane person might know not to taste such a dish, but the loving couple supped heartily of the meal. The bride, wanting so deeply to please her husband, told him that it was delicious even if she hoped that he'd never ever make it again. The husband, taking her word for truth, made the meal twice more before she could stomach it no longer and protested, telling him how absolutely dreadful she had thought it from the beginning. The husband, of course, was heartbroken. Not only did she not like his cooking--and who could blame her for that, at least--but she had also lied to him. Twice. The moral, friends, is this: if you don't like something, don't say you do. It saves everyone a lot more time, trouble, and hurt to just be honest right from the start.

I thought the moral was that if you're going to lie about how food tastes, then don't over sell it. I mean, you can get away with a simple "This is good." If you say something like "This is the best thing you ever made", then it's not surprising that you run into trouble later on. You have to give a neutral to good type of response, not a best thing ever response.

It's so much easier to just say you don't like it. Otherwise you'll be eating it for the rest of your marriage. To relate this to the current FML. OP: If you don't like her burgers and don't tell her, YDI. If you don't like her burgers and do tell her and she keeps trying to make them better and fails, FYL. But at least you tried.

This is probably the deepest thing I've seen on the website. Props for that.

why is it that we guys can't often tell women things cause they DECIDE to get mad when they don't need to be?

Don't bring in gender just because you're too scared to bring up a problem with a woman. You also don't get to tell people what is worth getting mad over.

Clearly, you took a bite out of cat food, and she let you, so criticizing her cooking seems like an appropriate response.
