* Averted, but discussed by the main character of ''Fanfic/SleepingWithTheGirls'', who, being a human being from the RealWorld, points out that he isn't bound by the "Conventions" of the fictional universes he's in. As such, his cooking skills fall into neither this nor "Epic Win" status. At the bare minimum, he's shown moderate skill in making omelettes- neither toxic nor blissfully amazing, they're simply normal omelettes.

* In ''[[LetsPlay/TwitchPlaysPokemonEmerald Twitch Plays Pokemon Emerald]]'', the Mob tried their hand at making Pokeblocks. The result were level 10-11 Pokeblocks with 19-23 feel. Higher numbers are worse, and it used to be thought that you couldn't make anything higher than a level ''9'' Pokeblock. To quote Twitch Plays Pokemon's own EpicFail page: "So what we have is a previously incomprehensibly bad tasting Pokeblock that goes down worse than sandpaper embedded with razors." Then, in [[LetsPlay/TwitchPlaysPokemonPlatinum the Platinum run]], they tried to make Poffins, which it turned out they couldn't do. ''Literally'' - they were unable to stir the mixture due to the input format and ended up burning their creations horribly.

Averted tropes are usually not allowed to be listed on the page of non-omnipresent tropes, but, in this case, the work appears to at least discuss the trope is averting. I am changing the wording to make that clear.

She gets better in ''Not Stalking Firelord Zuko'' when she makes a dish that's tasteless but edible. [[CharacterDevelopment She's learning.]]
