    lol, it’s the cheap stuff you soak since you don’t care about it.

    If you soak expensive equipment, holy hell you’re just wasting money, buy the cheap stuff and ruin that.

    Soaking a sheet pan is a great way to get it rusty, soaking any multi material pot can cause water to get places it shouldn’t and expand and break stuff.

    You don’t soak cooking equipment unless you plan on tossing far sooner than other stuff, sorry. You can water your money replacing equipment every few years while other last decades. It’s a simple concept, time or something else like money, you aren’t saving anything by soaking dishes, despite the lies people perpetuate about soaking. It’s corner cutting that costs you later.




  • Microwaving food removes all texture and transforms the food.

    The fact that you think it’s the same as cooking everyday is quite frankly astonishing. Yeah if you don’t care about taste, texture, flavour, etc. microwaving meal prepped food scan save you a bunch of time.

    How would meal prepping 5 different meals to deteriorate in the fridge be even remotely similar to making it that day? You’re giving up almost everything to save 30 minutes a day. Thats a terrible deal lmfao.




  • Buying online is more expensive than in store, again giving up something instead of time.

    Not even freshly cooked, a microwaved pizza and one warmed up on a cast iron are two entirely different experiences and time factors. You’re giving something up when you want to save that time, and most of the time it’s just money, but that’s not a solution for everyone.


  • No ones said groceries everyday, but 2 hours divided by 7 days is about 20 minutes a day.

    It is efficient, but you won’t have texture in your food, you are absolutely giving up something to save on that time. Even cutting your potatoes and cooking them everyday wouldn’t be the same as cutting and cooking that day. And buying pre prepped is more pricey as well, so you’re spending money to save time.

    Yes, microwaving food isn’t Magic, it destroyed texture and changes to structure in a lot of food as well.


  • Meal prep is an end to a means, you’re not getting the variety that your body needs and quite frankly, a lot of people don’t like microwave food, let alone 5 meals in a row.

    If you aren’t spending your time doing it, you’re either buying pre preprocessed stuff, or are giving up fresh quality food for microwaved repetitiveness.



  • 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.





  • You started you post off just making fun of the game, we know your biased intent here.

    You said a kid blew a gift card, and you let your kid spent money on microtransactions already. This is called a parallel, you don’t seem to comprehend you let your kid already do this as well…. What difference does the game make? You already let it happen, fornite, Roblox, Minecraft no difference. Yet you took offense to one single game.

    The issue here is your parenting, it has nothing to do with the game, you said it yourself lmfao.
