[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yuck why would anyone want to eat any of these items mentioned? It's all just junk processed "food." Maybe try following a recipe for sea salt chocolate chip cookies using organic butter, flour, eggs, sugar, baking soda, chocolate and Maldon?[/quote] Cuz the only one of those ingredients I have is butter. Less expensive to just buy the cookies and a lot less work considering [b]I’ve never made homemade cookies in my life. [/b][/quote] Absolutely do this for yourself before you die. Homemade cookies fresh from your oven are one of life's great pleasures. [/quote] Yeah, the thing is I really hate cooking, hate cleaning up from it, and would be annoyed to have all that stuff left over. Waste of money. [/quote] DP. You're missing out on such great joy in life. Certain things, like home-made whipped cream, taste absolutely nothing like their store-bought counterparts (canned whipped cream). I suppose you have anxiety and OCD. Sorry about that. [/quote] I suppose you have low iq and poor social skills. Sorry about that. DP[/quote] DDP You can bake with anxiety and OCD. It can be very soothing and you find that you have a lot of control over a lot of things. But I think that poster already said that it wasn't cost effective for them and I get that. A lot of expensive ingredients can be overwhelming for someone and they may have to throw some results or some things out before getting it. Then stocking in the ingredients is actually lower-cost. But you do have to get there. [/quote] I am the poster who was called low IQ. Ha. I started learning how to cook when my first child was born and our HHI was 60K a year. It doesn't take expensive tools or ingredients to get started, especially now that all recipes are online and there's no need to buy cookbooks. This is why I suggested to the non-cooking poster that she was suffering from anxiety. I still have my old cheap handheld beater, I don't have a stand mixer. I bought a used Vitamix blender on eBay. My only kitchen splurge has been a new Le Creuset cast iron dutch oven. I make sourdough bread in it. When there's a will, there's a way. It's just too sad to not be introduced to the joys of cooking for oneself, and I hope that poster finds a way to discover it. [/quote]
