1. Order takeout.

3. That depends on what’s wrong with it.

4. It depends on what happened that it needs saving. Not everything can be fixed.

5. Lots and lots of pepper/salt LOL

6. Cover it in cheese.

7. Cheese, lemon, whipped cream, bread of some kind, or hot sauce. Depends on what’s wrong with it.

8. Cheese. Add enough cheese and I feel like pretty much anything tastes good

9. Seasonings or just toss it and start over

10. Depends what it is/what’s wrong with it.

11. I’ve rinsed off a sauce I didn’t like from a pasta and bean dish and then added a new sauce. Really was trying not to waist the food xD

12. Ketchup

13. Ha, I thought you meant a cooking dish, not a dish of food. I cleaned up a badly rusted cast iron dutch oven and re-seasoned it.

14. I have seen miracles thanks to cream of mushroom or chicken or other soups…

    Ketchup sometimes helps as well…

15. For sauces that won’t come together, just add cornstarch and turn up the heat while stirring. I’ll thicken it up in a few minutes!

16. Depends, but usually cheese, sugar or ketchup.
