A fan confused Mario Batali and Mario Balotelli

Mario Batali is a chef.

Mario Balotelli is a footballer.

A fan apparently confused the two.

Warning: Some strong and possibly offensive language in the tweet

And so we learned: Batali screws up when he doesn’t use enough salt, Balotelli screws up when he whiffs on a header.
