I thought these pork chops in a lemon cream sauce sounded
tasty, and being that they were cooked in a foil packet, I was
interested to see how it would turn out.

The lemon curdled the cream. Of course. For whatever
reason I figured the recipe would overcome this natural
result but, no, it looked like barf. (laugh)

That's just one incident that comes to mind ... it's happened
other times, too. Some of the best recipes I know contain
ingredients that sounded awful together, I'm not good at
figuring out the result from looking at the recipe.
