The real question isn't whether we should cook, but why we're pretending personalized meal delivery services and AI-optimized nutrition apps won't handle this better than most home cooks ever will.

Look, when DoorDash and HelloFresh exist, spending two hours making pasta from scratch is just ego with a spatula.

its 3am and im thinking like even if meal kits exist youre still hostage to whatever theyre charging that week, cooking gives you actual leverage

nobody wants to say it but relying on doordash and uber eats forever is financially insane and emotionally sad, cooking saves you thousands yearly and keeps you from being helpless when the apps go down.
