Exploding eggs aren't the worst kitchen disaster. One package of Pop tarts, a US Army Major who shall remain nameless to protect the foolish, and the Fort Drum Fire Department.

Said Major wanted pop tarts after his run. He put the pop tarts into the oven, set the oven on BROIL and went for his run. The Major came back to his barracks to find the FT Drum FD in front of the building with smoke pouring out of the kitchen. It's amazing how much smoke those pop tarts can produce!

We also had someone do something equally stupid with spaghetti, so we weren't letting either one of them near the BBQ grill.
