    I encouraged the kids to help me cook when they were young.
    As such, they wanted to try what "they" help make.
    They will try and eat almost anything, now.
    This makes for a great "ice breaker" when you can go to a foreign country and tell them "Please order me something that best represents <Country> or <region>."
    Your host's eyes will light up and they will proudly order for you.

    I can cook decently. At age 12 my mother told me I wasn't that good looking and I'd likely never find a woman that would stay with me so I had to learn laundry, cooking and sewing. I do all the holiday meals here start to finish. Plus, I BBQ, grill, crock pot meals, bake stuff and have been learning asian stir fry. I also don't do the usual thing for a guy grilling where I just take the meat and put it on the fire, I do the prep and the sides as well.

    A common stereotype is the caveman griller.

    "CLUB HOOFED ANIMAL"
    "MHGHH MEAT CHUNK BURN ON FIRE"
    "CLUB WO-MAN AND BRING HER MEAT"

    I would go so far to say the best cooks in the world are men.

    Not that kind of cook...

    When I moved here from Florida, nothing I baked turned out. I switched from baking by volume to baking by weight, as it made the altitude corrections easier. I also found it to be much faster and more accurate; I put the big bowl on the scale, then start pouring in ingredients until I hit my target weights. Also, no guessing as to whether I've set aside half the batter or a little more or less.
    Math is tough. Let's go shopping!

    I do 95% of the cooking in my household. Got my first taste in Home Economics in middle school, then started cooking small things at my house. My mom helped me along the way and the Food Network finished it off. I enjoy cooking much more than baking as in cooking I dont have to measure or be precise, I can do a dash of this, a shake of that etc... Love experimenting and trying new foods and dishes.

    Single dad, had to learn pretty darn quick. I've gotten damn good, if I do say so myself.

    I cook. In fact I do most of the cooking.

    The wife and I have an arrangement, if one cooks the other cleans ... I don't clean.
