Hey hey! In this bite-sized nugget, I’m bringing you a half-baked but important thought that hit me hard: when did we lose our connection to food—and what did we fill that time with? I’m talking about the slow erosion of food culture, from the rise of shelf-stable convenience to the fact that so many adults don’t even know how to cook anymore. We’ve got all these time-saving devices, but somehow we’re more burnt out than ever—and we don’t even have time to get our food, let alone cook it. This one’s not a rant (okay, maybe a little)—just a gut-check on how “easy” might actually be making things harder. Let’s chew on it.
