Rate My Plate's WORST ever dishes - and the most savage put downs

We've all been guilty of trying to cook a slap-up meal, only for it to end up looking like a congealed mess of colours.

Even the best cooks among us have probably created a few faux-pas in the kitchen in their time.

But Facebook group Rate My Plate features the most hilarious - and disgusting - culinary disasters.

They post photos of basic meals and let themselves get absolutely roasted by total strangers.

Here are the worst.
