        My friend’s a chef and his wife is a picky eater and so are the kids. It’s crazy the lengths he goes to to make sure that everyone will eat.

        The way I was raised was that I had to eat everything that was given so I’m kinda blown away at this.

          I was legit like 20 before I realized I could say I didn’t like something and avoid it being cooked for me in the first place.

          This sounds like hell. Picky eaters drive me insane.

            Picky eaters are, without exception, some combination of childish, self-absorbed, developmentally-stunted, and incurious. Oh, you “won’t eat” some dish that literally hundreds of thousands of humans eat every day with your special, unique taste buds? Fuck outta here, kid.

      Someone I’m close with owns and operates a restaurant that puts out high quality food, but at home they mostly live off of grocery store frozen pizza and rotisserie chicken.

      It’s easier to cook for others than yourself.

      Eidunno I’m no chef but I worked a bistro. Then went to it. Like people said it’s users. Always the user.

      Nurses are the worst to cook for. Like the cops of women. Not all are shit but the ones who are ruin it for everyone else. Entry level job that gives absolute control over the disenfranchised. Of course there will be bullies.
