You would be surprised how many people can't cook.

I think there's also a confusing part where some people consider cooking to be anything. Like "Yeah, I can cook" and in reality, I'm just adding water to a boxed meal and simmering it on the stove. Or "Yeah, I can cook" and everything is made from scratch, down to fresh herbs. 

I know how to cook in the former sense. I can make boxed Mac and cheese. But I'm teaching myself how to COOK by shredding my own cheese. Buying fresh herbs. Baking homemade rolls, homemade pancakes, etc.

Side note: Can't believe how easy it is to make pancake batter. I've wasted so much money over the years buying "Just add water" pancake mix when homemade pancake mix takes the same amount of time to throw together.
