Date: 2008-02-14 01:16 am (UTC)I suspect that the reason peopel dont even relaise the option exists any more is because they have not real been exposed to it. Todays 30 year olds probably grew up in households where traditional (read time expensive) cooking was already dying due to the ever increasing number of dual income families. All I have to do is compare myself to my mother and my grandmother. My grandmother baked every week. My mother baked once a month. I bake once a year if im lucky, and I've had the professional cooking experinece, unlike most of my friends my age or younger.
Every one of my grandmothers friends could bake
about 75% of my mothers friends can
Only myself and one other person I know my age can bake, and most of our friends have expressed no interest in it at all.
As a society we are narrowing our options, our food diversity, and our diets, and I don't like it. I don't like it at all.
