I guess, but really I had some bad habits and didn’t know how to make anything more than simple dishes like spaghetti and meatballs. Salads seemed like way too much effort until you get the proper technique to chop them up. I understand what you mean but I still wish I had learned it as a kid. The muscle memory/technique to hone in on would have been nice before I became an adult and had to rely on eating out or eating random stuff at home because I also never learned to plan out meals properly. I guess there is more to it than cooking is what I am saying.
