Crowdsourcing question: How are you teaching your kids/teens to cook and host meals? Nearly 70% of Gen Z use food delivery apps on a regular basis, ordering everything from specialty coffees to comfort meals to their door. While convenience and speed play a role, many young people simply don’t know how to cook well. This not only leads to an expensive depdendence on fast food, but erases an important social dimension of preparing meals for family and friends.

Would love to hear your thoughts! If you have written a Substack post with helpful recipies for beginning cooks, hosting ideas, etc. please add them to the comment section.
