How does Rex's intentional sabotage backfire?

Explanation
Rex's intentional sabotage backfires because the food he sabotaged was made with flour contaminated with ergot poisoning. Ergot poisoning is a condition caused by consuming food contaminated with a fungus called ergot. This fungus produces toxic compounds that can cause hallucinations, convulsions, and other severe symptoms. By sabotaging the food with contaminated flour, Rex unintentionally causes harm to those who consume it, leading to the backfiring of his plan.
