You are so right elijah13. I cooked healthy meals for my family for over 50 yrs., and now I live alone and it's so much easier to defrost something and fix it quick.
It is a conscious decision we all make. What is easier or what will take time. We are programmed into think quick is better. My grandmother cooked everything from scratch. Taste, aroma and love went into her cooking. Then modern ways took over...awe the good old days.
Hope your day goes fine for you.
