This is an incredible self-report. If you consider microwaved meals to be your default method of cooking and not something primarily for reheating leftovers or defrosting frozen meat, I sincerely hope you've gotten your cholesterol and blood pressure checked recently. That is not normal.
- j3k3 7mo ago"cooking with an oven is more of a special occasion thing" this is nuts! I use an oven every day dude - so its a special occasion is it? The default method for cooking is using an oven or using a stove. Microwaving is for heating up left-overs for the most part. One of the dangers of people who are too close to programming is that they think of life as binary.
- baggachipz 7mo agoNot to mention the amount of plastic they're adding to their body and the amount of trash they're creating. I know cooking for one can be arduous, but meal prep is a thing.
- cj 7mo agoI haven't used my oven since buying a counter top air fryer (and a sous vide) a couple years ago. I can't think of a single reason why anyone needs a full size oven on a daily basis unless you're cooking for a large family.
- bobthepanda 7mo agoOwning a counter top air fryer requires you to have enough counter space for one, I have been in kitchens where there is an oven built into the stove but counter space is at a premium. I’d also say that while I like my air fryer oven, I would prefer to do some of the bigger things like a whole bird in the oven. It’s cheaper to buy a whole bird for meal prep.
- mjr00 7mo agoSure, but we were talking about using microwaves as your primary cooking appliance.
