    Microwaving food removes all texture and transforms the food.

    The fact that you think it’s the same as cooking everyday is quite frankly astonishing. Yeah if you don’t care about taste, texture, flavour, etc. microwaving meal prepped food scan save you a bunch of time.

    How would meal prepping 5 different meals to deteriorate in the fridge be even remotely similar to making it that day? You’re giving up almost everything to save 30 minutes a day. Thats a terrible deal lmfao.

      I think you misunderstand the idea. I dont mealprep 5 meals as I find that extremely boring. I just cook a bigger portion so I only cook every 2-3 days and reheat the day after.

      Im sorry but I can barely notice the difference with microwaved food and I find hard to believe someone would find it so noticeable. Maybe if you eat steak or something sure but for most foods come on. Also were talking healthy food here like lentils, soups, etc. Can you really notice its heated? It depends of the food of course. If you’ve been going out to a restaurant Im sure youve been fed microwaved stuff at some point withour even noticing it.
