Is food "spitted" or "sprinkled"?

Solution 1:

1) "Spill/Spilled" means to cause or allow (liquid) to flow over the edge of its container, especially unintentionally. This is the most appropriate and common verb.

Example:

I place the mugs on a small wooden tray and carry it out to the divan, trying not to spill the hot liquid.

2) "Spit" means to eject saliva/food/liquid forcibly from one’s mouth, sometimes as a gesture of contempt or anger. Whereas, "sprinkle" means to scatter or pour (small drops or particles of a substance) over an object or surface.

Example:

I accidentally sprinkled too much pepper on the pizza, so I had to spit it when I ate it (as it got too spicy).

3) Some better verb that means to accidentally "throw" food (as @SvenYargs suggested):

  • Splattered
  • Sloshed
  • Spattered
