Adults who can cook. It's just not that hard. There are step by step videos. There are classes. Just kind of tired of otherwise capable adult characters who have this weird teenager/fratboy inability.

Tbf, a large percentage of adults don’t cook. They have learned and forgotten or never learned. America lives on convenience food.

As a fandom trope, I just find it really old.

The world isn't set in america. Most fandoms have jackshit to do with that country.

But most fic writers are American and know a lot less about the rest of the world than they think they do.

I don't care whether they can or can't cook but I hate the comedic "I can't cook" characters where it's supposed to be cute or funny that they can't cook and other people have to either eat their nasty food so as not to hurt their feelings, or look after them and feed them. Probably because I didn't learn to cook until I was in my 20s (my mother completely banned me from the kitchen at all because I might eat food), and it's honestly not that hard.

Yup. Exactly.

Yes!
I don't like cooking, I try to avoid it etc. But doing basic things like boiling some noodles and chopping vegetables isn't that hard, and not knowing how to do something isn't awful but it's not cute either
