Answers:
well in my opinion your not slaving over making the food, and when your cooking the smell of the meal is always around you!. after im done i just dont find the food that appetizing after being surrounded by the smell for so longWww@FoodAQ@Com

'cos it's my job to cook for others and it's so nice to have someone else look after me for a change instead of me having to look after other peoples' meals!
People always feel intimidated by having to cook for a chef but we're really easy to please - nothing makes me happier than mac and cheese!!

Although, having said that, there are some things that nobody makes better than me, and nobody makes better vegetable and barley soup than my mum!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sometimes certain people but a little secret something in their food!. Other times its the way its prepared or just the way they learned to cook!. I always have the problem when I eat different people's chicken or brownies!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

lol luv the question
answer:
hehe i guess because everyone has his own way to cook certain things,,, like for example if u give 3 groups the same ingredients and ask them to cook the same thing!. everyone would cook it but U R GONNA HAVE THREE TASTES lol

because when you do it you criticize, or judge yourself but when other people do it you have nothing to criticize because you didn't make it!. Yea it's really confusing but I know what you mean!.=)
Glad to help!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because someone did something out of love for you by cooking it for you

I used to love it when my man made me pancakes and I hate pancakes but he made them w/ such love I adored them so much Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well sorry to sound like a bighead but I like what I cook better than what other people cook cos I can personalise it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
