Internet nerds teaching fellow nerds how to cook at home, and make higher-quality food than garbage in a wrapper or a box they're currently wasting money on. In our age of hyperinflation, shrinkflation, and general economic collapse, knowing how to cook at home is more vital than ever.
Share recipes, cooking guides, shopping and savings tips, and let's help our fellow nerds save some mother-freaking money. Feel free to vent about skyrocketing food prices here too. Share evidence of hyperinflation, shrinkflation, etc. when you come across it.
RULES:
- No spam, porn, off-topic content, hate speech, harassment, bootlicking
- No trolling or obvious troll bait
- Don't make me make more rules

Even beyond the fact that time, energy, motivation, knowledge aren't always available to cook... There are a TON of food deserts in the United States. Places where your options are one of 3 fast food joints, or a dollar general. The nearest grocery store is sometimes an hour away. And, of course, if you live in the food desert, you probably work in the food desert, which is going to have shit wages, meaning your car probably isn't reliable enough to get groceries from that far away.
