Men Can't Cook

Men can't cook. This is a simple fact of life. Let's face it - the only thing men can't burn is water (although this may be because it is physically impossible to do so). A man realizes this when he is forced to live alone. However, there is another fact of life - women can cook! This is the driving force behind the human species.

No matter how badly a woman cooks (or thinks she cooks), she cannot match male incompetency in cooking.

Men realized this back in the stone age. After 3 months of eating his own "food", some cavewoman waltzed into a caveman's house and made a meal which tasted like a meal. This earth shattering discovery led man to establish the institution of marriage. The bedrock of marriage is food. That is also its raison d'etre. Procreation , Love etc. are just side effects.

At the same time, there did exist a sub species of men who could cook - but they died out as they did not marry.

The proof of this caveman realization is very much evident today. Ever wonder why the only food you enjoy is home cooked food? Why is it that food outside - from a sandwich waala to a five star restaurant tastes bad? Simple - ever notice who the chefs are? Men! Some poor idiot did try to solve this problem by inventing refridgeration - but that's another story.

Women, you may be led to believe that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach - WRONG! A man's heart is his stomach. In fact a man has no heart. There is just one massive hole where the heart should be (the stomach expands to fill this void as nature abhors a vacuum).

Next: Women can't drive!

Brat, seems like you forgot to put "learn to cook" on your things-TODO-before-leaving-for-US list.

Burnt or un-burnt, we don't make a fuss over what we eat.

What do you know, I can make Maggi Noodles.
