Although many of us see the need to choose what to have for every meal as a chore, in reality, it is a great privilege.

Even today, there are plenty of people in this world who have to take what they can get when it comes to their next meal. Over countless generations, humans have made the many different ways to eat and prepare food their focus. It means that the chefs of this world have become capable of turning what could be plain sustenance into a truly enjoyable and rewarding experience. Today, for those with the means, these thousands of years of development translate into an extraordinary range of dishes that those of us lucky enough have an enviable level of access to.

Despite this, most of us don't venture too far beyond our usual routines in the kitchen. Seeing as we often feel pressed for time and desire the most enjoyable and/or satiating results all the same, it is much easier to rely on the tried and true. There is both comfort and efficiency in sticking to what works. However, experimentation is accessible enough for anyone who has the confidence to attempt something new. Cooking memes may not be the most obvious source of inspiration, but that doesn't mean that they should be discounted when looking for your next dinner idea. Failing that, they offer plenty of entertaining food-based humor to waste a couple of minutes with. If you didn't have an appetite before, you will after this.
