[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find the whole concept of regularly eating out itself to be highly overrated, especially given how reliant restaurants are on addictive ingredients like fat, salt, and sugar. It took me 35 years to realize that I can cook better tasting and healthier foods at home.[/quote] No you can't. This is the lie that dieters/health nuts tell themselves to make themselves feel better about not allowing themselves to eat what they want, but it's never true. If you could actually cook food that was healthier and objectively better tasting than any restaurant then instead of posting about it on DCUM you'd be talking about it on the Today Show after receiving your Michelin stars and opening the 500th franchise of the restaurant that made you a multimillionaire. The foodservice industry spends billions every year on healthier alternatives and the best they can come up with is a veggie burger that tastes exactly like a real burger if the only real burger you've ever had came from a public school cafeteria. What do you think is more likely, that you figured out a secret that every massive restaurant group in the world somehow missed, or that your food isn't really as good as you say?[/quote] I can't believe how ignorant you are, PP. Cooking delicious food and running a restaurant business are two totally different things. If you don't know any home cooks that have made absolutely delicious food, then you need to make more friends. Although if your personality is like your post, I can see how that will be difficult.
