>>>My wife just got back from a bidness trip to Aberdeen, Scotland. Aparently cable-TV services are really expensive there, so she was stuck watching standard broadcast TV in her off-hours, despite staying in an insanely expensive hotel.

>>>One of the shows she caught was a cooking show (we watch a lot of Food Network at home) and a caller wanted to know how to make "fluffy American pancakes." So the chef went on to describe the recipe: so many grams of flour, egg yokes, then egg whites beaten separately, some cream, a pinch of sugar and (optionally) ricotta cheese. No mention of salt or the most important ingredient - baking powder. The guy was making crepes (I think), but definitely not pancakes!

>Definitely. But the baking powder was a pretty major screw-up for a chef, especially on TV.
Another one was the guy on one of the early Survivor seasons (the only one I have watched) who was a chef from Michigan and talked a pretty good game. But he managed to screw up rice, of all things -- twice! They had only a limited supply and the other survivalists were pretty irritated at him.
