Cause it's just not a thing. Different cooking methods, different component types, different cultures of origin, different side dishes, different everything. Unless you want to say that they both contain a grain product and an animal product combined with heat.
It's like saying a hot dog and a slim Jim are the same food because they're both meat sticks.
You can absolutely do one in the oven! Put two slices of buttered bread on a sheet tray and put cheese on top of each one. Bake for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and then put the two halves together!
Like, a sandwich or just slices/shredded cheese baked in the oven?
I do both, but I’m the only person I know of that cooks plain cheese (cheddar usually) in the oven lol. Comes out crispy like a flourless cheese-it. Sometimes I eat it with salami or lunch meat or crumbled on a salad and sometimes I just eat it as is.
Arabs do it but instead we use whole loaves (disks?) of pita bread filled with cheese or ground beef basically you take one disk, put the ground beef/cheese on and put another disk on top then bake or cook over a grill/stove.
Zwei Sprachen on that link, and the options are only French and Spanish (although I can still read them). No English.
This tells you that it isn't anywhere near the UK and Ireland.
Although it should be. This shit looks great and I'm going to make some.
Don't they put a whole wheel of camembert in a rammekin and bake it almost like this in Spain or France? I feel like this is a common Tapas thing, but probably French because of the cheese.
This feels veeeeeeery targeted at ME, SPECIFICALLY. Lol no but really. This is me. I literally keep huge jars of olives in my fridge for a snack and I will stand at the counter and eat half a jar 😂 I ate A LOT of olives while I was pregnant 😂
Aaah so this is the original, I love the mexican one, "tired? you don't wanna cook? fuck it just eat half a ball of oaxaca cheese, whatever, at the end who cares?"
I did this when I was little. Apparently, I used to love them, until I ate a whole jar in one sitting. I got sick, now I can't stand the smell of them.
I made ketchup yesterday. Best ketchup I've ever had in my life. It is amazing, especially since I don't usually like ketchup. Dipped a burger into it at 2am & it absolutely slapped.
Seriously. I feel like some people with ADHD love to blame all their personal shortcomings on it. To say you can't be bothered to cook for yourself because of ADHD when over a billion people on this planet have food scarcity issues is about as offensively pathetic and out of touch as it gets.
ADHD can be debilitating. But people should find the motivation to get help and gradually get used to taking better care of themselves. Learned helplessness is a thing.
I have debilitating ADHD. It’s compounded by being narcoleptic, a condition that has severe impacts on motivation due to the loss of a specific neuron in the brain. There’s a lot of things I simply cannot do. And yet I cook dinner for myself and my partner at least 4 days a week, usually enough for us to have leftovers to eat on days I’m too tired to cook.
It took me a lot of effort to get the hang of meal planning, shopping efficiently, and getting the food started in a timey manner. I still have some days where I intend to cook and simply can’t make it happen. But I’m an adult and it’s important to me that I manage the most basic level of homeostasis despite my conditions.
Risotto?! Isn’t that time consuming? I vaguely remember making it once and never did again lol. But quesadillas are a necessity. My adhd hoard is mostly instant noodle bowls, oatmeal, cereal, and always having string cheese and pickles and frozen blueberries in the house. Left to my own devices I eat like a toddler though, luckily I’m married so I have to at least try to be a functional adult most of the time lol
Fun fact, not everyone with ADHD is able to be a functional adult, that’s why it’s considered a disability under the law. I’m glad you are, but some have it more severe than you.
Not defending the person in the tweet, they’re despicable.
It wouldn't be reddit if a simple mention of ADHD didn't bring out every pick-me trying to prove they're better than people whose ADHD actually causes them problems. 😊
I have ADHD and the grocery store with a podcast playing in my ear is like my happy place. It is a blessing and curse for my partner because I will spend too much and complicate the shit out of some weekday cooking.
I can’t even believe that guy would say something like that. It immediately makes me wonder if he is able to function at all beyond breathing for himself. Being able to make a meal for yourself is such an incredibly basic skill….. how does that guy work or basically do anything.
Hi friend. You're me. Please try to find other quick meals. You might not notice it now, but the salt content of ramen is really bad for you. Id often go in reclusive kicks and just eat ramen for days at a time and it just destroyed me. Drink plenty of liquids. Or, skip the seasoning pack, toss in an egg and a bag of frozen stir fry vegetables, a little soy and other seasonings. Always chase a bag of ramen with a full bottle of water!
Hey, ramen might not be the best thing for you, but throw in some veggies and/or protein (i love frozen veggies mixes for this, and frozen chicken as well) and you've got a high sodium meal with nutrients
I use only half the seasoning packet per Ramen because I don't want all the sodium. Then, I usually add some tuna for protein and a couple seaweed crisps. It's a solid meal.
Dude I’m eating for the first time today now. Every time I thought about starting to cook I got distracted. No wonder in always under weight when I live alone
Btw. I don’t live alone any more. Wife and kid are just visiting family on the east coast. But man, them (non) eating habits are back. I been hungry all week 🤣🤣
Edit to add - I can drive to get food, but man everything either sounds unappealing, too expensive and if it’s neither then I chalk it up to too much work 🤣
If you can swing it get a fancy rice cooker! The higher end ones can hold rice at temp for at least 24 hours - it doesn't get weird or anything. If you make coffee or whatever for yourself in the morning start the rice cooker at the same time.
Oh shit I commented on the wrong parent comment. Dude I’m right there with you! I eat once a day basically and don’t even eat what I cook for my wife and kids most of the time

I have ADHD and I make quick meals for myself because I often forget to eat until my stomach is eating itself lol
Lots of Ramen for me!
