>Calling someone using Blue Apron a cook is like calling someone doing a "paint by numbers" a painter >I'm not trying to be a cooking snob Yes, yes you are trying to be a cooking snob. If you had said "someone who uses Blue Apron is not a chef" you'd have a point, but then again no one ever said that. Someone who cooks is a cook. Someone who paints is a painter. There is a big difference between cook vs chef and painter vs artist. Blue Apron is not McDonalds, they don't make your food for you. They give you a recipe and the raw ingredients, same as finding a recipe online and buying the raw ingredients from the store. And then you cook it. As any normal cook would do.
