Regrettable Ingredients

The Chef's most regrettable ingredients are a closely guarded secret, known only to a select few. But for those who dare to ask, we'll reveal the ingredients that make us cry ourselves to sleep at night.

1. Canned Spam, the salty, sweet, and occasionally sentient abomination that haunts our dreams.

2. Bad Eggs, the ones we're pretty sure are past their expiration date, but we're too lazy to check.

3. Overripe Tomatoes, the ones we're too proud to throw away, but too ashamed to serve.

4. Discolored Paprika, the one that's been sitting in the pantry since the Clinton administration.
