I unironically believe that cooking a dinner with 3 sides and a dessert for to serve to guests is skill that you cannot call yourself a complete human without

I understand not being able to afford a large dinner like that. However everyone should be able to at least make side dishes.

A roast chicken, homemade rolls, a salad, roast veggies and a tray of brownies is literally $25 of ingredients tops, serves 4 people with room to spare, and never fails to impress. Seriously a good, easy, filling meal that's a great template for how to host a dinner

What if you make quality food but you're the only one that likes it so you end up having to eat an entire chuck roast and pot of duchess potato casserole by yourself over the course of a week?

If you make food and others don't like it, try making other dishes. If they don't like anything you either suck at cooking (sorry) or they are joyless bastards. Can always host/join a potluck and let random strangers be impartial judges.

Just cut it smaller before you cook it?

What if you get food delivered from local establishments? Do you swing back to respectability, or are you still beyond all hope? :marseyhmm:

Only if it's delivery provided by the establishment directly. If it's 3rd party (like doordash or ubereats) it's still pathetic.

:marseydisagree: It straddles the line at best, because while the owners appreciate the volume for sure they're missing out on the "how well visited" metric, especially locals! So one better get their butt down there to show others that this place is good. Show some effort and give max. support if you don't want to cook, darnit!

Nandos is at least real chicken and not nuggets made from chicken buttholes.
