I don't know about that, it seems to me half of this board still lives with mommy

I think it is just one of those things that go in and out of fashion, although it shouldn't be. IMHO simple cooking skills hould be basic knowledge, like tying your own shoes. Or driving a stick shifter car ... oh wait ...

that would probably be /diy/ or something

Having browsed since insception, the makeup of this board nowawdays seems to be
40% NEETs comparing fast food
20% incompetent cooks asking stupid questions and posting jack
10% weebs arguing bout sharps and bastardising eastern cuisine
10% autists getting triggered over preferences
5% alkies
5% depressed industry chefs
5% home cooks with an ounce of skill and inspiration
5% or less semi intelligent discussion of food or drink.

Can't imagine many are over 30, but the lack of porn and pretentiousness (relative) discourages the likes of say, /b/ aged youngsters

That's pretty silly. You should try everything at least once.

>>8494759

No. I will never give them my money. I don't care how good it possibly tastes, every time I walk into a McDonald's restaurant with a friend I legitimately feel nauseous from the smell and find it disgusting.

And you'd probably get poopy pants. But I would absolutely try the curry in India too and happily shit myself. You know why? Because at least their curry is made with decent ingredients and not packed with artificial shit.Do you think the people at the top of the McDonald's corporate chain eat the shit they push on others? Guarantee you they don't. Probably have their own private chefs at home, the best ingredients, with the millions they pull in. Don't be a stupid asshole who falls for advertising.

>mcdo execs don't eat mcdo food
In the UK, there's a chain of "supermarkets," if you can call them that, called Iceland (pronounced ice-land, as if two words, not ice-lind, as the country). Iceland started off by selling decent quality frozen whole foods by weight at reasonable prices. One freezer would have frozen beef shanks, another frozen heads of broccoli or cauliflower, a third frozen whole chickens and a fourth frozen gammon and so on. That sort of thing. And customers would go from freezer to freezer filling up bags with the items they wish to buy and bring them to the till to be weighed and paid for, much like a green grocer or the produce section of a typical grocery store.
Nowadays, all Iceland sell are ready meals like horsemeat lasagne and bangers-and-mash plates where the sausages are only 42% meat and the rest being filler.
An interview a few years back with Malcolm Walker, founder, owner and CEO of the chain revealed that he only eats organic, non-GMO, locally sourced food from his own private gardens and farms and never eats anything from his own supermarket. He wouldn't touch the rubbish he peddles to the poor with a bargepole never mind actually eat it. And I suspect McDo execs feel the same about the stuff they sell at people, too.

If I wouldn't eat it myself, I'd never serve it to a guest never mind sell it to a customer as I find it a violation of personal integrity.

>>8494878

Indeed indeed. People need to realize that corporate fast food chains do not care about quality, the health of their customers or anything like that. Their main goal is MORE PROFIT and they achieve this by clever, arguably false advertising. They don't give a shit if the stuff they are pushing can barely be considered beef or if it's packed with god knows. They want your money. Now if you know this and still want to eat their food on a regular basis I am no one to tell you not to, if there is one thing I hate in this world it is people pushing their views upon others, but you should all know that your health will eventually suffer. It is logic. If they are able to sell a "meal" for so cheap, imagine what it actually costs them to produce the food. Probably pennies. There is nothing in there good for you. Even the fucking pickles for god sakes PICKLES contain

38 here, so I guess I probably count as your dad.

>anymore

I don't know what your basis is for thinking you know what things were like in the last generation, or the one before that, but if anything younger people are actually more interested in cooking (or at least the idea of being into cooking) due to mass media turning it into a spectator sport, much like football or whatever.

Among people my age, I tend to be better friends with people who are "into cooking" because we have that in common. But there are lots and lots of people my age who are not into cooking. When I was in college we had plenty of people who were utterly hopeless in a kitchen. This is not new. It is not reasonable to expect everyone to have had the same experiences growing up as you. Some came from broken homes. Some were discouraged from trying things on their own. Some grew up poor and didn't have much opportunity to try new things or experiment with exotic ingredients. Some grew up rich and were cooked for by "the help".

If it seems to you as though older people care more about cooking, you should consider the fact that some of those older people were forced to cook from circumstances that they were exposed to throughout their relatively longer lives than people in your own age group. They may have had the same thoughts at your age as you are having now.

>>8494803
I can't speak to McDonalds but I've met some execs from Yum and Darden and I can assure you they do eat that garbage. You can't live in that world without internalizing at least some amount of tolerance for the shit you inflict on the public.

The only thing that changed when I no longer lived with my parents is that I got to upgrade the gear I cooked with

I have to try to control my autism when I visit my parents because they don't have absolute top of the line cookware and their knives aren't stropped on chromium oxide

>>8494485
>Why aren't young people interested in cooking anymore?

I'd argue young people are far more interested in cooking than older people are.

Boomers are happy to eat out every meal or just make shit out of a box. Younger adults are much more health conscious and interested in cooking from scratch like our great-grandparents did.

People under 22 usually live at home or in a dorm though, so it's not like they would cook even if they wanted to.

I hate SJW's, I hate Hillary, I hate Trump, I hate stupid Americans like you. Kill yourself. Fucking waste of oxygen. Only candidates that have ever even been half decent have been Sanders and Ron Paul. There has not been a good president since Kennedy and he was assassinated for reasons.

I'm 24 but unlike a majority of my peers, I own a house, a car, am in a stable relationship, and most importantly, cook our meals most nights per week. All of this of my own volition, didn't get any help on the house/car from mom and pops. For the most part taught myself how to cook too.

>>8495752

I've been in there I don't know 50 times in my life? Maybe more? I usually order nothing but I actually am incorrect in my original post. I technically have had McDonald's. Coffee. Just once. It was ok. The food still looks and smells like absolute shit though I'm sorry never going to have it

Do you realize how many Sanders supporters voted for Trump in spite of Hillary? Believe it.

>>8498306
Bernie lost to Hillary because the voters speculated that Hillary would stand a better chance against the then likely Republican opponents. No-one at the time seriously thought Trump would be the opposition. If given the choice between real reform (Sanders) and faux reform with pillaging and general madness (Trump) - people would overwhelmingly come out in favour of Sanders.
In the choice between business as usual with continued corruption, double-speak and more wars (Hillary) and flipping the fucking tables (Trump) - the people chose Trump.

I'm saying that the guy I was responding to>>8496482
was trying to say that Bernie lost the nomination because of corruption. That isn't true. He lost the nomination because Hillary won a shitload more states and had 3 million more primary votes than he did.
Does that mean our system isnt fucked or that Bernie wouldnt have been a better candidate? No. Does it mean that strategic voting didnt fuck our country? No.
It just means that its extremely disingenuous to say that Bernie lost the nomination because of corruption or that he was screwed out of the presidency. He lost the primary, he wasnt fucked.
Yes, this had implications for the general (Bernie bros voting for trump, etc.). But it wasnt unfair, its just how it worked out.

Bill Clinton was known for eating a big mac after going for a morning jog.

Well if Bill Clinton, the apex of health, does it...

>>8498658

Bullshit. He did that for approval polls

>>8494485
because cooking online is a hellhole. Tried to find toddler friendly recipes where they can help an adult cook, and you get slideshows of hippie food like "mango salsa salmon." the fuck outta here with that shit

>>8498673
>hippie food like "mango salsa salmon.

Mango salsa was huge in the 90s, it's hilarious that to this day it still is triggering people who live under rocks somewhere in flyover land.

I wonder when the cupcake fad will hit your area.

>>8498680
was it a hit with toddlers? because fuck you.

>>8498687
Why wouldn't it be? Are you afraid mangoes will give your toddler autism because you didn't have it vaccinated? What exactly is the issue?

I think the current generation of 20somethings cooks more than our parents' did at the same age. I'm 22, been fed processed microwave crap all my childhood, moved out at 17 and learnt from scratch.
There's a growing distrust towards "big food", and most people I know generally tend to like knowing what they are actually eating.

Shit man, switch from the slow cooker to the pressure cooker. Get the same quality or better as a slow cooker in a fraction of the time.

1) Kids shouldn't be having fish until 2 1/2 - 3 years at the earliest because their digestive systems are still developing & because of potential mercury poisoning issues
2) Sounds like an overly fancy meal for kids to cook, eat or appreciate when they're looking for hands-on recipes with dough or cheese sprinkling for kids to participate.

My son is 13 months old and he eats whatever we eat. Last night we had pesto salmon, baked acorn squash, and steam broccoli and he really like everything. Last week he had gyoza, rice, couscous, meatballs and spaghettini, roast chicken, mashed potatoes, sweet potato, avocado, etc.

Granted he isn't at the picky age, but if you don't offer diverse foods to your children you won't know what they like. Also, keeping them on hot dogs and chicken tendies is not going to promote healthy diverse eating habits.

Kids like fish in many parts of the world, North Americans typically don't eat much fish or associate it with a child's diet. Mangoes taste good and children like those, so why is it ridiculous that a child wouldn't like this?

You don't have to feed your child what you ate when you were younger. It's fun to give my son different foods and see what he likes, it's also good in terms of reducing food allergies and ensuring good nutrition.

I think I had my first mangosteen like 3 years ago, but some of his baby foods were "coconut mangosteen amaranth quinoa" or some shit. It's good that kids are eating better and more interesting foods.

>>8498716
>Kids shouldn't be having fish until 2 1/2 - 3 years at the earliest because their digestive systems are still developing & because of potential mercury poisoning issues
This isn't true at all. You have to be intelligent about what fish you feed them, where it's from, how frequently they eat it, etc.

As for the "developing digestive system", what exactly are you talking about?

>>8498716
Dude do you know how many asian and pacific islander kids have fish at a young age? That doesn't add up.

>>8498780
>>8498716
Bubble baby will grow up with severe allergies and he'll hang on the future version of 4chan making REEEE threads about "the newfangled shitskin food getting shoved down our throats by white-guilt SJWs"

>>8498716
>their digestive systems are still developing
No. Mercury and lead are a hasard to developing brains and fetuses because they cause developmental retardation. It has nothing to do with the "digestive system".

Your mom obviously gorged herself on tuna while having you.

>>8498513
Not many. But some stayed home or voted for Jill Stein.

>>8498509
You are also a pretentious faggot

>>8498540
Your massive oversimplification of this election is cute

>>8498540
Clinton's camp used the media and party influence to force both Hillary and Trump into the US general election. They assumed Hillary, their chosen candidate, would win that contest. It's ironic that they are crying about it being rigged after doing more underhanded shit than any other group to influence the election.

Read the Wikileaks sometime, they are very revealing, and it's not illegal to own a copy, despite what CNN said.

>>8494637
I thought something was different. I came back after a few years of no 4chan and the boards I browsed has changed a lot.

>>8498572
>was trying to say that Bernie lost the nomination because of corruption. That isn't true. He lost the nomination because Hillary won a shitload more states
The latter does not disprove the former. If the latter happened because the Democratic party early on decided to discredit Sanders and push Hillary, then yes, it might indeed be said to have been the result of corruption.

and it's just so depressing ya know?

fyi, the same powers that got Kennedy are the ones going after Trump

>>8501009
Kennedy was a progressive and Trump is a hardcore right winger, I don't see how they're even remotely similar

>>8501303
>Trump is a hardcore right winger,
Nah his protectionist measures are diametrically opposed to free market capitalism.

>>8501309
His platform overall is very right wing, his VP is a hardcore right winger, his cabinet is filled with hardcore right wingers, and he is a hero for hardcore right wingers (including white supremacists)

>>8494637
>5% alkies
It is definitely more than that.

I don't know why but the only people over 40 who know shit about food are professional chefs or flaming homosexuals.

I wonder if i should have gone to cooking school.

Actually, I'll add first-gen migrants from non-Anglo countries to that.

NEET about to turn 21 here. I could probably fry an egg if you held a gun to my head.

>>8494485
Ive been here since 16 m8

19. When I 15 I moved to Italy for a brief amount of time and I attended a cooking school there for one year. Unfortunately I had to move back to the USA, but ever since then I've been really involved in my cooking, and I try to cook every night.

>>8494485
21 here also
srugeling to keep passion for cooking alive

fresh food is just too expensive, when I can buy a huge pizza for $5
every year food bets more expensive, but my wages arn't rising

as a result I have to work more hours, I barely have time to cook anything that takes more than a half hour

>>8494485

not proud of it

>>8494803
Why does this meme perpetuate that fast food companies are some nefarious conspiracy to poison the poor? They sell cheap, good tasting food to people across the world. They are totally up front about the nutritional content of their products. There's no deception. And furthermore most of it is fine to eat regularly provided you're conscious of your portioning.

27. It wasn't a big deal when I was 18, and then some how I've aged almost ten years.
You're here for life.

Sounds about right. I used to spend way more time on /b/ when I was 14-16. Currently 26 now with a stable-ish life/career and this and /sp/ are the only boards I'll occasionally visit.

>>8502181

>>8502185
Oddly enough, while I am into guns, I'm not all that into discussing/posting about it. Actually never even bothered to visit /k/ until just now to see what you were talking about.
