Is he generally immature and throws tantrums a lot? I couldn't deal with this

I think it's rude to cook a separate meal.

Take out a life insurance policy on him. He’s clogging his arteries.

He needs to cook too.

The kids need to cook if they are 10 or older.

It's pretty rude to just reject someone's meal that they made. If he kept doing it, I would no longer prepare his portion. Just make enough for yourself and the kids and let him figure his meals out, since he has such stringent preferences

How dare he? How dare he like something different than you! And he offers to the kids? That scoundrel. Divorce him.

Stop cooking for him. He doesnt deserve it.

When I make something else (something healthy! flavorful! with different iingredients!), he goes outside and grills a hunk of meat and brings it in to eat instead of my meal.
Or else he fries it and makes the whole kitchen stink of greasy meat.
Now he's beginning to offer our kids his meal instead of "mine."
I'm ready to clobber him.
Ideas?

Ideas? Are you kidding me! How is this a problem????!!
My idea is to let him cook dinner for the family half the nights (you can eat something else on his night if you don't like it) and on your nights, who cares what he eats; he's a grown man.

Let him cook his. As long as he eats with your family.

Kids eat what you cook.

As long as he cleans up after himself, fine. I would talk a few days out about meals, and he can fend for himself whenever he chooses. As long as he pays his half of the grocery bill and cleans up his mess (or cleans up after half the meals), he's an adult and can feed himself.

He sounds immature and unhealthy.

Stop cooking for him entirely. Maybe once he realizes his disrespect means HE has to do the work for himself he'll actually appreciate you.
