I'm a 21 year old college student and I cook for myself about half the time, and go out to eat socially the other half. I really only eat 1 to 2 meals a day, so it's not that much cooking. I prefer to cook my own food, buying ingredients and cooking it, not buying pre-made meals. I would say about half my friends are like this, some are great cooks, and some can only boil water and press buttons on a microwave
I love cooking and food
