Gochujang is my new favorite hot sauce, I've been putting it on everything. I've also made Gochujang caramel sugar cookies, which are fricken amazing.

I do, but I need something with a different texture to go with it, otherwise it's too slimy and gross. I'd never eat just cottage cheese straight up.

Before lactose intolerance set in, BBQ-flavored potato chips dipped in cottage cheese. Also Doritos dipped in cottage cheese. Absolute fire.

Silence, rain drops, crackling fire, a certain type of bird chirping outside (I'm not sure what kind of bird it is, maybe a Robin)

Hell yeah, I love to bake. I definitely prefer baking over cooking, though I do enjoy both. I usually make bagels or cookies, but I'm gonna try my hand at sourdough bread soon. What do you like to bake?

Yeah, I'm not saying you need to ENJOY it, just that you should be able to do it in order to feed yourself. We all have daily tasks we don't enjoy doing, but being able to adequately feed yourself is necessary for survival.

I don't ENJOY swimming and wouldn't choose to swim for pleasure, but I know how, because I don't want to drown if I fall into deep water. It's basic survival.

I've met several people over the years who literally cannot cook a single thing for themselves and either rely on others to cook for them or live off take out and microwaveable meals. People who would look at what's in a cupboard and would just go without eating simply because they never learned how to follow directions.

I've had the same experience, though only for about the past 10 years, and at 45 now, it's more like there's a single day in any given month where the crazy depression/dark thoughts and rage at the simplest stupid shit occurs, and by now I'm able to stop in the moment and recognize that it's just temporary, and it always resolves itself in an hour or two. I can't wait for menopause to hit and for all this shit to be over.

That's cooking a meal! See, you're doing it without even realizing it.

If you cannot cook yourself a basic meal (I'm talking boil water, dump a box of pasta in, cook it, strain it, then add red sauce from a jar level of basic), you have failed as a human being. An adult using the whole excuse of "I just can't cook" is pathetic and inexcusable unless you have genuine mental incapacities that prevent you from learning a basic recipe and how to use a stovetop, especially now with access to the internet/videos teaching how to cook.

Is there a high percentage of vegans using cocaine? Genuine question here. I do completely agree with you, though.
