Do You usually cook a meal to you if You are all alone.....

No, I never cook for myself when I am alone. At first it seems like a blessing but after a couple of days, it does tend to get difficult as home cooked as always better in taste and the pocket. Usually on Saturdays I am alone throughout the day and I’ll definitely not cook anything. A pack of instant noodles or if pocket permits, some yummy junk food from a takeaway is just fine for me. but very recently my hubby had gone out of town for a week and it being the summer vacation for my son, he had gone to visit my parents so I was all alone for a week and it was such a problem in deciding what to eat! I did not want to cook or rather could not really cook in such small quantity, instant noodles had lost its charm and takeaways are expensive too! Anyway I managed somehow.

if i am all by myself, i seldom cook too. sometimes i just buy bread and it that, or drink coffee. but if i really feel like eating i would do the same thing as you did, just go at fasfood and eat what's offered there... lol... cooking for myself only does not only make me lazy but sometimes i think it would be a waste of gas, as i will cook very few only. heating leftover would be okay though .

Since I am single and live alone, I try to get in the habit of cooking meals for myself. Meals that are still good even if I have leftovers two days later. It would be too easy for me to get in the habit of eating fast food, or microwave dinners. Those are fine on occasion, but I'd like to stick to healthy food as much as possible.

I love to cook. It relaxes me. So I usually do cook even if it's just for myself. I was like this ever since I started cooking. I think I was probably the only teenager that when being grounded for the day , would end up cooking a whole meal LOL While other kids would probably make a sandwich I was in the kitchen making chicken fricassee LOL

I will certainely not cook when my family is out. I would try and survive myself on the fast food and other junk. In case of emergency, microwave cooking would be preferred. Also, I would like to consume a lot of raw fruits as a part of my meal.

If i am not lazy or sick, i prefer to cook my own meal. When i was still single, i always cook my own meal. It's more hygenic and i can eat whatever i want to eat..Besides that, it's more cheaper. I no need to spend more money into food, because ready made food cost more. The only time that i eat outside, is when we have family outing or having to celebrate special functions...

I live alone and like many people who live alone I don't bother cooking a big sitdown meal for myself, I love takes away food or restaurant food, I would call myself a picker when I am home, I just eat when I feel like something to eat, not good I know...

Hello anetteh I'm a single student , I live in my own flat , which I share with my colleague , and I do cook my meals most of the days , I spare one or two days to have pizza or fast food in the restaurants , the rest of the week I make my own meals . have a good time anetteh

No, I don't like to cook when I'm alone, I only like to cook for somebody more than I cook for myself. Two reason, I don't really mind what to eat when I'm alone and I like to hear compliment when I cook for somebody ^_^ or I like to eat some instant food or order take away.

When I am alone, I usually don't cook. It is just me who is eating and I am not a picky eater anyway. Sometimes, I eat fast food. Other times, I eat 4 slices of bread with peanut butter or egg. Then for my dessert, I usually eat a banana or apple. It is no fun to cook and eat good food by ourself.

Hi anetteh!i know it is hard to cook for ourselves.eating food is enjoyable if we share it with others.i dont prefer eating alone.if nobody is there in the house i eat whatever is there in the fridge...sometimes fruits too or else i make just soup.so that i can have it anytime.try to make something dear and eat healthy.:)

i really dont like fast food. i used to love it as a kid. but i have grown a disliking for it through a new knowledge of healthy foods. eating healthy doesnt always have to be expensive. i find that i am more energized and i feel better about myself when i eat healthily. i like cooking, and i do not always have the most time to do so. thus i prepare food ahead of time, and eat quick things that are time efficient and healthy, such as a quick salad.

hi anetteh cooking for myself when i am alone at home......yes i generally do because i love to cook food....as i am a graduate in culinary it becomes mandatory for me to cook food when i am alone at home.....this helps me in polishing my own skills and also gives me chance to experiment of different food......but yes sometimes when i am too tired i also oder food from outside as my brains stop working after a tiring day at work......but i generally prefer to cook food rather than ordering it from outside......

hi anetteh... i am staying with my sister and doing engineering.. when my sister family goes t native i use to be alone.. mostly in the exam time they use to go for kids vacation..first and al i use to do same as yours ie fast food.. then felt till unhealthyand onces got food poison..so use to cook food .. me use to buy bread or chappthi and will make some curry with egg which is easy.then use to cook rice and al... cooking is my passion.. and there are lot of site which hepls to cook simple food .. enjoy

I think there was a time that I survived simply by having noodles during lunch time and take outs at night. I would rather relax in front of the TV than tire myself out preparing a decent meal when I will be the only one to eat it anyway hehehe. I think i appreciate being able to relax more.

HI ANETEH, I live alone & i cook something every day or warm up what i have alredy cooked. I have friends that tell me all the time i wouldn't cook like u do if i was alone. I like fast foods every once in awhile but i think they are expensive to eat there all the time. Of course cooking is expensive to. I could probably eat out as cheap or cheaper than what i spend on groceries but i like good ol' southern cooking.

depends upon my mood if i am tired with my work then i will go out and i will finish my meal if not then i will cook my self because i usually don't prefer out side food because i feel they are not clean as home food

no! i am so lazy to cook a meal to myself , and also i don't cook very well.i can't enjoy myself in the meal i cook.

Yes,i will. I think the meal i cooked is very delicious.When i was alone at home i always do something good to eat,because it is easy to do a little for myself. And it is more healthy.I don't like the fast food, it tastes bad and is harmful to the healthy. So i preffer cooking myslf.

Hi Anette. I like to cook for myself. I make simple meals because I don't believe in spending half a day in the kitchen. Sometimes when I don't feel like cooking I just eat fruit or vegetables. My only sin is the Chinese instant noodles soup. You put the noodles and spices into a bowl and just add boiling water. The meal is ready in 5 minutes.
