Are Gen Z having a universal "idk how to cook" problem or is that just a minority? And for people who arent good with meal prep (or dont have time), what do y'all even eat? Those Microwavable meals? (piefed.ca)

Okay maybe this isnt the best demographics here but like I mean as in if you know someone who's Gen Z, do they have a "idk how to cook" issue?

(Please don't be like "omg its easy, how could you not know" in the comments, be nice in the comments okay 🙈)

I'm seeing a lot more apartments without kitchens than I did 20 years ago.

    To be fair, I'm also seeing people spend crazy % of their income on housing. The lack of a kitchen might have other causes!

    Fast food is (sadly) not the type of meal that's expensive. I doubt the proper meals my mom cooked (meat+potatoes/pasta+vegetables) in a kitchen are significantly cheaper than sticking a 3.5€ frozen pizza in an oven, whereas space for a stove, countertop, cupboards and everything is at least like 3x2=6m², × ~12€/m²/month = almost a month's worth of frozen pizza's :P

    Not that I've actually ever seen living space without kitchen, maybe that's not as much of thing in western Europe
