I find that one of the more annoying parts of being a single person is having to cook for one. My bank balance can't take the hit of eating out all the time and my internal organs would start shutting down if I tried to exist solely on instant ramen, but there are only so many easy, nutritious meals that can be made into a single portion without leaving half a sad onion and the dregs of a can of beans to fester in the fridge. It's either that, or you eat the same meal for the rest of the week—meal prepping might be sensible, but it sure gets boring. At least these struggles and more are recognized within the varied world of cooking memes. They might not always be about serving up something delicious, but they do know that there is plenty of humor to be had when we talk about food.
