You are both cooking too slowly and eating too fast

Try cooking a whole chicken a 700°C for 30 minutes and see what happens.

Is that the only option everyday? A whole fucking chicken? People are ridiculous.

No but you commented that they were cooking for too long with no idea of what was being cooked.

I have an example of what needs a longer cooking time.

The ridiculousness comes from you commenting without having any idea what OP was cooking and not providing advice of things that can be cooked quickly.

Take 10 minutes to spatchcock your bird and it will cook in 40 minutes

Wash up whilst it cooks

Or just use a convection oven. They’re super fast. 6 drumsticks or 4 thighs in 20 minutes.

I tried this recipe and it was awesome. The charring made the chicken absolute 10/10, would bang.

Yeah, honestly. It’s a crap meme. Maybe it feels like 2 hours because its boring for you. If you cook for 2 hours likely one part of it is putting something into the oven for 1 1/2 hours.

Not everyday can be a Rachael Ray 30 minute meal.

I make chicken pot pie weekly. Mirepoix, peel dice potatoes, constantly stir so roux doesn’t clump. It’s 90 minutes of non stop cooking and 30 minutes of oven.

Do you divide it up into seven meals and eat chicken pot pie everyday?

You’re doing something wrong if it takes you two hours to make dinner.

Skill issue.

Depends on what you are cooking. Just the potatos I made tonight take more than an hour.

Ya so baked potatoes? Just chuck them in the oven for an hour straight on the rack. You literally don’t have to do anything other than wash the potatoes and pierce them. Fucking easy.

If that’s just too much for someone to handle then I really don’t know what to tell you.

So you basically stick to 30 minute meals or under and there’s nothing wrong with that since they do typically take less skill to prepare. There are plenty of recipes that take 2 hours or longer to make.

Ok but if you’re new to cooking and you can’t make a meal without complaining about it taking forever maybe stick to easy meals?

Like I said it’s a skill issue. You don’t need to cook gourmet meals every night.

That’s why I get take-outs, don’t have to do the dishes.

Also, can we take a moment to talk about how great the performance of whomever that woman in the meme is? Looks like an Oscar worthy performance to me.

This. Sometimes it’s even cheaper than making a meal at home depending on what you get.

Just don’t think about dying and all the dishes get cleaned and put away in your dream house magically somehow.

But the whole point of the story is that choosing to be human in the real world, instead of being an everlasting symbol in a fantasy world, is to accept everything that comes with being human in life: dying, doing dishes, but more importantly, the ability to choose your own path in your story.

Are you saying that Barbie is the metaphorical equivalent of Arwen, the mortal Elven Queen of the Reunited Kingdom of Arnor and Gondor?

Never trust food that takes longer to eat than to cook.

I cook and clean for an entire family inside of 40-50 minutes 5 nights a week. All of that is mostly “from scratch” and delicious. At some point it becomes a skill issue.
