Whether you eat to live or live to eat, chances are you have had to spend some time in the kitchen at some point. Cooking is an essential life skill that not everybody is good at, but everybody still benefits from, whether it is them cooking up their favorite meals or somebody else.

It is no wonder that there is so much rich terrain for cooking memes to draw from, with all the frustrations, successes, and disasters that come from the preparation of the stuff that we eat.
