Does anyone still cook ?

Question

Do you eat out at fast food places all the time most of the time or never ?

Do you cook one meal a day three a day ? One a month ?

Am I the only one left who makes meals at home?

I wouldn't want my wife eating the crap they sell at these places so I make her lunch and usually breakfast and dinner -

But also because I do not want to eat that crap.

I am not sure what is in McDonalds burgers but I am sure it's not beef despite what they say - I am not altogether sure the bun is bread - same goes for the rest of the fast food places - They might be better but now we are compareing getting hit over the head with a book vs getting hit with a brick -

How about that microwavable stuff ? Are you doing that instead or cooking cooking ????

Answer 1

Sorry,if this sounds awful in the ears of many people.
I cook at least 360 days a year:first of all:then I get to eat healthy food when I want and "unhealthy" if I choose that.I love cooking.
Go every week twice to outside markets where they sell produce from around the world.And I always eat lots of vegetables,cooked in a wok on high flame,like the Chinese do:yummy.And different kinds of fruit too:the hole year round.I use fruit also in cooked food.How much paper do you get here to write on?Can go on for ever,if it comes to cooking.

Answer 2

YES! I cook all my families meals. We might only eat junk food once or twice a month. But I have to admit, it wasn't always the same story. I am pregnant and at home so I have the time to cook properly. I think the problem today is that Mothers work too many hours and don't have time or energy to cook, which is a shame

Answer 3

I love to cook and do so as often as I can which unfortunately is usually only 3 nights a week and most weekends. I have a busy and hectic schedule, leaving the house at 5:45 am and not getting back in until 7 or 8 that evening.

Answer 4

I cook just about every day, I pack meals for my husband to take on the road (truck driver), he is a very fussy eater and wont eat much fast food, If I don't have time to cook he does it. We don't want to eat much of the stuff that they pass off as food in most of these places. If we don't want to cook we have a wonderful restaurant here that you can actually see your food being cooked in front of you, there is no back kitchen prep area its all right out in the open behind the serving bar so we know what is going on. Call me paranoid, but I work in nursing and know what food borne illnesses can do to a person.

Answer 5

ME!!! I DO! It's in our family, everyone cooks, its a family tradition. I personally don't go out to eat a lot because their is lots of fat and greese in the food so it doesn't agree with me. No I only microwave things sometimes when I really don't feal like cooking.
I think people should cook more because its better for you and you get a good feeling when someone likes what you have made.
Fast food is gross and that is what leads to obesity!
You are very nice to fix your wife dinner, and i'm glad you care about her. Happy Cooking!

Answer 6

Yes I cook all the time. It's just me and my son but, I cook all the time I don't do breakfast on the weekdays because he wants to eat breakfast at school with his friends. But on the weekends we go all out for breakfast, it's his favorite food. I cook all the time and we don't stick to the same things all the time we try different dishes. And all my sisters and mother come to the house because they know that I cook everyday. I enjoy it, a lot of times I talk as if there's a camera right there in the kitchen and I have a live studio audience. My son thinks I crazy.

Answer 7

I still cook almost everyday. I don't usually do fast food, but in a pinch it will sometimes do. My family still eats together at the same time every night.

The only thing my microwave is good for is warming leftovers or heating water.

Have a great day!

Answer 8

We do not live near any fast food places, thank goodness.
My husband works in a bit larger town,and loves fast food but I have convinced him HOW bad that stuff is for him. But i do compromise and once a week he does go to the subway and get his favorite sandwich made. Once a month on payday we go to a Chinese restaurant and have dinner. You can watch the chef prepare your food and i get a break from cooking all the time. I do not microwave meals, just for warming up left overs.. I make 2 meals a day, on week ends 3. Cooking is not that hard just takes time but it is better for you and cheaper than eating out all the time.

Answer 9

We go out to eat either on Friday evening or on Saturday morning. I cook supper for us and on weekends I cook three meals a day. I don't cook meals during the week when my husband is at work, then I just eat cereal or sandwiches or anything fast.

Answer 10

I cook most every night. It gets expensive eating out. If I don't cook then we heat leftovers in the microwave. We take our lunches most days. My hubby and I usually eat lunch out on Fridays. Our children usually take their lunch. They can choose one day that they buy lunch at school. On weekends we cook twice a day. I love to cook on weekends when I am not feeling rushed by demands of children and regular weeknight routines. During the week I try to cook quick meals, and if I cook more than we need I will freeze the leftovers if I know we are not going to want them again soon.
