On Avocados & Cucumbers

A couple of months ago one of my management lecturers asked the entire class to put up their hand if they could cook. I was the only one to raise my hand & it made me feel really sad... Am I really the only person in 3rd year management who can cook?

I've just seen a lady post on the forums describing a person that hasn't been able to tell apart avocado & cucumber and another that thinks parsley is an 'really uncommon' herb. What is the world coming to? Is the bulk of the population just going to stop bothering to learn about food, nutrition & cooking? That seems like such a terrible waste...

Cooking your own healthy food is a pretty essential skill really; Takeaway might be much more convenient but in the end it doesn't contain the nutrients necessary to sustain your good health in the long-run.
