Americans are lazy cooks

[Dogonthebed]

I’m an avid Pinterest collector of recipes. I see something I like the look of then pin to that’s week meal plan only to find out it is an American recipe Recipe stretching it as they seem to have shortcuts for everything we can’t get in the UK. Can they actually cook? It is the equivalent of us making a cottage pie from a Coleman mix. Anyone else find it bizarre how much help they get for basic recipes then having the cheek to set up a blog as recipes??? They could just read the back of the instructions fgs!

Btw OP, the women who "have the cheek" to set up blogs using cream of mushroom soup and so on often have don't have much choice professionally because they are SAHMs in need of income, or have been raised in a manner that focusses on traditional gender roles instead of education and married young, or simply didn't have the money to access formal education and go on to have a professional career. I'm sure some of them are making good money though.

That's really funny. I wonder how much additional work is required in preparing a chicken breast and potatoes to qualify? Killing and plucking the chicken? Digging the potatoes out of the ground?
