So I think that's like you're talking about the kind of like Betty Crocker.
Some people were meant to bake.
Some people were meant to cook everything in a rice cooker and they throw it all.
in there and see what the fuck happens.
It's usually I mean, it cooks it, you know, one way or the other.
So I think that's a super instructive example and that it's kind of something that's taken on a life of its own in the culture and that there's like this.
What is it that we want to be true?
And like, why do we want that to be true?
And what do you think we do want to be true?
Well, I have to say, I think the whole sort of like egg mythos and the idea that people want to... The egg psychodrama.
The egg psychodrama, that people want to do things from scratch, is people have spent many years doing things by hand, making things by hand, cleaning, cooking, etc.
All that is time that our ancestors would never get back, right?
It's all, you know, we had generations of women, particularly before us, who did nothing but that and didn't have a choice.
And I think the idea that there's an attachment to it and that people like it, which is not to say that everybody hates it, because I think people actually do.
I mean, as with everything, some people like it.
