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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 opened my lunch at work to discover that my sandwich was a soggy mess. The Tupperware I'd put it in was a piece of crap, and all the mayo had leaked out. I tried to salvage it but then spilled the whole thing in my lap. I ended up eating my lunch with a plastic fork, and even my fingers, like an angry animal. 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
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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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

I'm with 1 on this. JUST USE BUTTER. Freaking spray people. Don't make the FDA start keeping oven cleaner and furniture polish behind the pharmacy counter, folks. Bunch of idiots. Really.

Exactly what I was thinking. Who keeps their cleaning supplies near their cooking supplies? That just screams bad idea. Plus wouldn't the lemony fresh scent when you sprayed it be a dead giveaway?

"...coated my bread..." What a retard. YDI for using Pam like a retard

Yea, YDI. You should've looked at the can or at least if you're in a hurry keep cleaning products away from the food.

YDI for making such an obviously fake FML. Pam and Pledge don't even look alike other then a yellow can. One has a little push button in which you have to removed the cap, the other one has a big yellow button you have to push down. They don't make the same noise, and they don't even look alike. Not to mention the biggest difference is that if you took two seconds to actually read the product, you'd have realized it wasn't what you thought. GTFO my FMLife with fake crap like this.

Wow, you have no imagination. GTFO this world.

Do you really think anyone would memorize the differences between everything in their house? Stating the differences won't do anything.

Uhhhh. Yes? When I'm cooking I know what I grab by the feeling of it. If it's something like this, which is used a good amount with cooking, you should know what it feels like. Ex: you're not going to pour orange juice into your cereal because you had your eyes closed and meant to grab the milk. Different bottles have different feelings. It doesn't matter if he was tired or cleaning or whatever. There is an obvious difference that should have been noticed.

LOL who the **** uses aerosol oil spray to make a toastie??? And what's pledge like fly spray or something
AlicaKate 0
Lolllll. Pledge is a cleaning solution spray.
wordgirl 0
Pledge is lemon scented furniture polish that comes in a can that looks nothing like the Pam can. Excuse the illiterates, they know not what they refuse to read. :D

lol a "toastie" xD

Oh lol I've never heard of it before

why would you have pledge anywhere near your cooking items? i know the logical thing is to put all cleaning items in a specific place, away from food and out of reach of children...YDI
wordgirl 0
Teehee, the warning to keep it out of the reach of children is also WRITTEN ON THE CAN, which these morons refuse to read. Maybe they should put the product warnings on the FML site... :p I think this is the only thing they read.

YDI for not paying attention.

Wow, this is exactly what "FML" was invented for. Honestly, your life is beyond repair. Suicide might be the only way out of this Wagnerian tragedy.
Watchmaker 2
Exactly. He had to go through the torment of being denied lunch for 10 minutes and possibly having to, horror of horrors, clean the taste of cleaning solution out of his mouth.
wordgirl 0
Hahaha. You guys are making my day. A Wagner reference in the comments about an illiterate who sprayed his sandwich with Pledge. I love it. Isn't innocence supposed to die and the world turn black now? :p

Who the **** uses aerosol oil or whatever "Pam" is. I supposed that is used only in America and you should describe what "Pam" is. I didn't understand completely this FML until I read the comments. Why buy aerosolized oil or butter or fake butter or whatever that is? Why not the real thing? Why all this fake food mania?

The point of aerosol oil is that you use very very little and it coats the whole pan. That's quite silly though since it's only good for it's non-stick properties - it's not enough oil to actually fly anything. Aince most pans nowadays are Teflon, it's almost the same as cooking without oil at all.

PAM is good for baking, for people who don't want to grease and flour a pan. They spray a little PAM to keep the baked good form sticking in the pan. I can't imagine actually COOKING with the stuff though~it doesn't add anything good to the flavor the way butter or olive oil does, and it seems like a waste, since you'd have to use quite a bit to be able to successfully fry or saute with it.
