Every human needs food, since food is a must to stay healthy and have energy to do most activities (which even when you are sleeping, you still need a lot of energy). Without food, human will become less energy and weaker each day, that is why even in a fasting ritual you still have the eating time on certain rules.

To eat is not as simple as what you see you can eat. Sometimes what you see as a tempting things to eat are dangerous or very disgusting to eat, or sometimes the looks of the food is tempting but the taste is one of you must avoid otherwise you will get puke because of it.

A good food came from a good cook. Without being cook in a proper way, a food will become tasteless and does not looks to good to eat. Some foods maybe safe to eat without being cook first but some other is not recommended to eat without being cook first.

To cook a food you can have so many ways, you can fried them, you can boil them, you can grill them, or you can even bury them in a sand or others to make them ripe and ready to eat. So if you talk about cooking, you talk about many ways to delivered a great food.

Cooking actually is a simple thing. If you found the "red line" you will able to cook anything you want and delivered the great taste of food you ever taste. Even if you follow the guidance in a cook book or secret recipe, you might found out that what you cook is totally different with what you imagine although the recipe is an original one and written by the recipe founder itself. It is all because cooking is not just a written theory on a paper.

Cooking needs a lot of experience, but if you never start to cook you never will have that experience. Different people cooks will make a different taste of food even if they cook it with a same utility and recipes.

We must learn to cook if we want our food just the best way we like, because the taste we want only known by ourself. By learning to cook we will get some advantage such as :

- We will found out that what seem ugly will turn to be the most important part of your food.

- Cooking will also make you more creative, because everything is possible in cooking. You can add any spice and ingredients you like to make your own taste and your own secret recipe.

- Cooking will teach you how to manage time in the right way, because if you just miss a minute or too fast a minute your food might taste different and might be unable to eat.

- Cooking will also teach you to be patience. Since cooking is not a magic things like you flap your hand and the food ready. You must follow the step one by one in order to make the food eatable.

- Cooking will make your mate love you more and more. Because a good food will make a good relationship, since everyone needs to eat and a smart cook mate will be more valuable because of it.

- Cooking will make you richer, since if you cook your own food you will understand that you wont have to pay so much for a great food because actually it is very cheap to buy the ingredients yourself and then cook it on your own way.

Well that's why we must learn to cook, because cooking is easy and fun.
