It is right? And something to teach the kids. I work with adults who can only cook if it's meat and a packet mix from the supermarket. Can it be that hard to teach yourself or am i being elitist only because I know how to cook?
I don't think you're being elitist. Like recipes, cook books, cooking show tell you exactly what you need and the exact method for preparing. I'd even argue it would be good for people's mental health throwing in some music and preparing a meal.. but I guess we came from homes where healthy home cooked meals were the norm, so to be fair it's probably a function of your upbringing too.
