Redditors Disclose The Biggest 'No No' Thing When Cooking

Uh, did you know Olive Oil can go bad? Because I never even thought about that. Redditor, u/MomosOnSale, asked the online community, "Redditors who cook, what's the biggest 'no no' thing in cooking?" 

And the comments are actually filled some really helpful cooking tips. 

I also read a majority of these cooking tips with Disney's Ratatouille chef Colette's voice in mind. Try it, it's fun.

Anyways, I learned a little something from this and maybe you will, too! 

Anyone else got some helpful cooking tips?
