Buying things online is often a laughing matter. It is the same with food. You see an attractive picture on a website that makes you salivate, but when you open the order, it’s just something barely edible. Some heroes of this article shared unsuccessful home cooking experiments. In short, expectation doesn’t always meet reality.
