If you cannot cook yourself a basic meal (I’m talking boil water, dump a box of pasta in, cook it, strain it, then add red sauce from a jar level of basic), you have failed as a human being. An adult using the whole excuse of “I just can’t cook” is pathetic and inexcusable unless you have genuine mental incapacities that prevent you from learning a basic recipe and how to use a stovetop, especially now with access to the internet/videos teaching how to cook.
BUT I’M SO BUSY /s
While I agree, my ex once lit the house on fire while trying to make ramen.
Given, she was stoned out of her mind and passed out long enough for all the water to boil off. I got home from work just in time to find the bone-dry noodles burning in the pot.
Agreed, cooking edible food in the twenty first century is such a low bar, just follow a recipe and make sure nothing gets burnt and it is cooked through.
I can’t really cook but even i can make myself some scrambled eggs or French toast.
That’s cooking a meal! See, you’re doing it without even realizing it.
I also have next to no interest in cooking. I do not enjoy cooking. To me it’s like playing an instrument, which I have no training but could technically do, just not well.
The same thing could be said about any skill, if you just break it down like you said. Doing mechanical work, for example, is just removing bolts, following directions, and using the internet (assuming, that you have access to tools).
I don’t think it’s ever been can’t. Just don’t want to. Like me and cooking.
Yeah, I’m not saying you need to ENJOY it, just that you should be able to do it in order to feed yourself. We all have daily tasks we don’t enjoy doing, but being able to adequately feed yourself is necessary for survival.
I don’t ENJOY swimming and wouldn’t choose to swim for pleasure, but I know how, because I don’t want to drown if I fall into deep water. It’s basic survival.
I’ve met several people over the years who literally cannot cook a single thing for themselves and either rely on others to cook for them or live off take out and microwaveable meals. People who would look at what’s in a cupboard and would just go without eating simply because they never learned how to follow directions.
I think in a basic survival situation where cooking is the thing you to survive, any functioning human would (probably) be able to cook something. Even if they burned it to the point of lowering the gained calories a notable degree, there would still be something “safe” to eat in it. But I do understand what you mean with you swimming example.
I’ve known people to be taken advantage of by shops because they never learned basic maintenance of the thing they use everyday. Or sell scrap/vehicles because they felt they had no other options for a massive loss.
