You not a food scientist but definitely an expert in making assumptions. To make your own meals you need to know how to cook and be able to afford the stuff. If you don't have the fortunate upbringing to learn how to cook you need to find time and be prepared to spend what little money you have on potential straight to the garbage experiments. That's not going to happen for a lot of people just because you don't risk throwing away time AND money. Sure, well cooked budgeted meals are an amazing way to save money and eat well. It just isn't that simple to come by.
- jprete 3y agoI agree, but I think you're overestimating the difficulty of producing something edible. Not good, but edible.
- r0ckarong 3y agoEdible doesn't motivate you to improve when the previous option was actually tasty.
- ericd 3y agoThat’s a bit hyperbolic, its trivial to hard boil some eggs, and there are a number of similarly simple dishes that you’re not going to need to retry a bunch.
