Nice food is one of life's most basic and universal pleasures
I genuinely can't wrap my head around people not being arsed about it at all.
Those guys that just eat Huel 3 meals a day just make me feel sad for what they're missing out on
On the one hand, people like what they like, and if they don't care about food, why should it bother me?
On the other hand, though, I feel like eating food is such a universal human experience that meeting somebody who doesn't care what their food tastes like is akin to meeting somebody who doesn't like music. It just gives me an automatic "WTF" reaction.
To be fair there's a big difference between not liking music and not being into music. I know some people who aren't big on music but still enjoy it.
Places I stayed in Japan and China had no kitchens (or pathetic, unusable kitchens). I consider myself a good cook and I like to prepare nice meals for people around the world when I stay with them, but honestly, there are places all over that is a challenge.
So you most likely chose cheapest options to stay and are somehow amazed they are cheap and had barely usable kitchen?
Did you think to ask beforehand that you wanted a 5 star kitchen?
I’ll take “dumb takes due to bad reading comprehension” for $200
Something may have been lost in translation. The general topic here is about people cooking food for themselves and I was contributing the point of view that isn’t always a feasible reality. I do still often make people nice, home cooked meals working with whatever we have, but I get why some usually don’t.
I eat basically the same food everyday. Stir fry every night and sometimes for lunch. I can't imagine cooking a different meal every night what an insane waste of time and ingredients.
When i go out to a restaurant i order the same food because i know that I really like that food and I dont want to risk getting something i won't like as much.
