[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The heck is this about? It's like 100 degrees, we get this every summer and you live in a first world country. This isn't Vietnam where you're eating all your meals outside or in a concrete room open to the elements. How much time are you actually spending outside? 10 minutes walking the dog? 2 minutes going from your air conditioned car to your air conditioned house? Are you so frail that running your stove for 30 minutes and getting the temperature up to like 73 instead of 70 is too much for you? Good lord, just cook your normal food.[/quote]. PP is HANGRY. Someone get them some cold juice or something![/quote] Even if you’re inside in AC much of the time, your body knows the environment is hot and often responds accordingly with reduced appetite. Filling up on hot foods rises the body’s temperature further. It’s normal to crave cool and lighter meals when the environment is in a heat wave even if AC is available. Beyond that, some of us care about the future we are creating for our kids and choose to do things like not also run the oven at peak AC use times which will only ramp up AC to compensate. [/quote]
