@sickburnbro he's not wrong but at that point you're getting to "what isn't" and "who isn't" which a lot of people won't like the answers to

I cook myself and rarely eat out. I never order food, the surcharges are prohibitive.
I spend around 500$ monthly in groceries and I eat everything I want, no substitutions or cheap goyslop. It's not that hard.
@Zeb @WandererUber I mean, I wouldn't do yourself the disservice of saying it isn't hard. Cooking well is a skill, which is why we pay people to do it.
People that are below 100IQ have a hard time following recipes, and below 110 probably can't say "I have this in my house, what can I make with it"

Fair enough. It's a skill and it takes effort, I'm not specially good at it but I can follow recipes and do most things to a good level.
You have a good point though, I can't really emphasize with people under 100 (or 90 IQ which seems to be the average these days) so saying it isn't hard might be a disservice. But I have know and even grown around low IQ people (cousins mostly) who have learned to be able to cook and handle themselves pretty well. It's feasible.
