If food is as much of a time sink as sleep you either sleep too little, or eat way too much
If you considering purcahsing and travel time to the store, recipe research, cooking the recipe, eating the food, cleaning the kitchen and the dishes, it adds up to a lot of time each day/week. Maybe not as much as sleeping but as a single adult living alone i probably spend at least 2-3 hours worth a day on the above tasks.
Store is like 2 hours a week. Less if you live at a place where groceries can be delivered. Just get your weekly food at once. Save on gas and time.
Cleanup is usually 15 minutes for my family. Including the mess my toddler makes.
That won’t leave hours a day if you ask me.
Maybe 2.5 hours a day if you include breakfast and lunch. I can’t live on 2.5 hours of sleep.
Food can also be 5 minutes a day if you use paper plates and microwave pizza pops for every meal.
You’re paying with something else if it’s not your time.
Eating proper nutritious meals and not having others to share the burden with adds time. 15 minutes of cleanup for 4 people would be an hour for a single person, granted there is less overall to do, but now you need to each task alone.
Store is 2 hours a week? For me it’s more like 1 hour every other week. What are y’all doing at the store that it takes so long.
No loading / unloading the dishwasher, cleaning pots and pans. Ingredient prep like chopping etc cooking…
I DK dude seems like you are microwaving everything or just wiping a table down and don’t do much in the kitchen…
Shopping, cooking and cleanup are part of food.
Each meal can easily be considered 1-2 hours of labor.
That’s if you’re doing it inefficiently as possible, or are just starting.
Fill the sink with water and soap and wash up as you cook, and let your cooking pan/pot/whatever soak while you eat so cleanup only takes a few minutes.
Hell, if you git gud enough, you can cook 2-3 meals in that time period and have food for the whole week.
Most meals should only take about 30m of actual activity, especially if you choose recipes that are single sheet pan/skillet, or slow cooked.
It could be, maybe, just maybe, and here me out here, that the comic is not the absolute, actual depiction of one’s day to the second, just a generalism to get through the point. Which can be done through not too dense heads which are able to do a bit of imagination and not taking a comic literally. Geez.
I’d rather sleep to be honest.
Have time for food but no time for toilet…?
make work 40 seconds
