Oreos, lentils and feta cheese arrive in the same bowl, and Amanda Lehan-Canto identifies the problem immediately: "I see Oreos, I see cheese!"

Smosh Pit's "Wrong Plate Wrong Time | Culinary Crimes" puts Courtney Miller back in detective attire, with Amanda and Angela Giarratana investigating confusing online recipe reviews. The show turns those comments into edible evidence, then asks the table to work out what went wrong. These are comedy investigations, not cooking instructions.

The first case hinges on autocorrect: a commenter meant orzo, but their message said Oreo. Recreating that confusion produces the cookie-studded stew confronting the investigators. The authentic eggplant, lentil and pasta version follows for comparison, with considerably less mystery about why anyone would eat it.

A London broil case introduces an unexplained soda substitution, while olive oil brownies arrive with whole black beans. That final puzzle leads to a familiar internet mishap: a question apparently posted beneath the wrong recipe, perhaps thanks to too many open tabs. Courtney has already supplied a personal connection, admitting to keeping hundreds open for shoes they're waiting to buy.

The detective props get their own attention in the comments. Viewers point to Angela finding a case file behind a faux brick and the joke credentials printed on the investigators' mugs. Before anyone can inspect the food, Smosh's art department has made finding the paperwork part of the game.

I’m with Amanda on her mini-crash out. Powdered sugar and granulated sugar are very different.
