I am probably among the worst cooks in the world. When I lived in Japan, I ate the same three things ever day: rice with bananas for breakfast, peanut butter sandwiches for lunch, and noodles with hot sauce for dinner. I couldn't handle anything more complicated. And I would eat out on weekends.

Now, I just eat out all the time. Anything I cook for myself will usually be some variation on soup, chili, toast, or something else easily boiled, microwaved, or toasted.
