How does someone go through life not learning how to cook?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What are you talking about? He cooked that meat, didn't he?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Sure, let's say that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Are you sure his mum didn’t cook it?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Childhood neglect, abuse, autism, and enough money to rely on pre-made foods.

P.S.: Don't be so dismissive of people whose struggles you're unfamiliar with. And that's assuming this image wasn't staged.

I'm early Gen X with a bunch of much older boomer siblings. By the time I came along my mom was too frazzled to teach me "women's work" of cooking and cleaning. I relied on prepackaged, frozen, and just a couple basic recipes to get me through.

By the time I was 27-28 I started having kids. I took the opportunity to basically watch 24/7 food network (before all the competitions and game shows) and learned to cook. My sons? I started teaching them to cook as soon as I could get them to participate without hurting themselves.

But that's me. I enjoy cooking, so I went for it. Some people don't even like cooking, or enjoy food enough to care beyond eating as unavoidable body maintenance.

I semi learned from my mother. I can follow a recipe no problem. I tend to over cook rather than undercook. Making my own creations isn't where I excell.However, I choose to put my time into other pursuits. Food is just sustenance. I eat the same thing every day. (Also found a shirt I like and ordered 7 and wear them every day)

the "i never want to shit again" colon-pounder special

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I see youre a biologist.. lol

Choc milk aside that looks like dog food. If you're going to eat meat at least learn to cook it properly. No self respecting boy (or girl for that matter) should be inflicting this abomination upon themselves. Why do boys apparently have to hate themselves like this?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago

Love me some milk steak.

I wish "Guys can't survive on their own without someone parenting them 24/7" was what people meant when they complained about misandry.

When I was like 9 years old I had steak and a chocolate milk at a fancy restaurant (fancy to nine year old me).

I threw up and have never sought that particular combination out again.

It's been literally decades and I just got that weird extra saliva kick in the back of my throat that says I won't be trying it again tonight.

...did you cook those steak nuggets to well done?!?!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Hard to tell... they're just grey and probably almost flavorless.

I'm betting they got covered in either ketchup or steak sauce.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hated steak as a kid. Chicken nuggets tho.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought I hated steak as a kid, turns out my parents were not great at cooking steak

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah my parents are just awful at cooking. My mom cooks every burger and steak well done.

I fail to see a single thing wrong with this.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It looks like dog shit, for one.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I might mistake it for dog food, but I've not seen a dog shit cubes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Wombat shit then (I've seen it, it's cubed).

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Throw some eggs or potatoes in there and you're set.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Woof, arf, bark.

Talk about your "bone appetit"

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

"My son turned out just fine"

Sir, your daughter barks on command.

Would you like some meat with your meat?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (6 children)

I can't take an adult who drinks chocolate milk seriously.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Mmmmm, choccy milk. 🤤🤤🤤🤤

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

That's an interesting way of saying "I gatekeep what people are allowed to enjoy."

How about just considering that what drinks people consume says absolutely nothing about them, other than "I don't care what people think about what I enjoy?"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Haha, Choccymilk go brrrr

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago
