Don’t have one, don’t have space to have one, don’t have money to get one, don’t have any hope to ever get a place with one. Just like evergrowing amount of people.
Thankfully, I’m in pretty good position, I don’t live in US, so my diet consists of food, not of sugar and sawdust. I do have an induction cooktop, and can confirm it’s indeed amazing. My enormous privilege aside, I would like to some day get into the oven territory.
Five or six fast food visits and you could’ve bought enough
But this is the main problem. It’s boots theory all over. For people living paycheck to paycheck the calculation of “if I don’t eat for a week I can invest into myself” doesn’t sound as appealing as for people who can afford to do a little bit of savings.
For a lot of people in America, a lot a lot, all those people whom I am talking about, there is no such choice.
They’re in food deserts, they’re overworked to death, they don’t have skills, they don’t have equipped kitchens, they don’t have time to cook, they don’t have energy to do it.
It’s a bootstraps problem. How can I work good job and can happily spend an evening cooking a nice meal, but half of Americans can’t? Well, obviously because they’re lazy and probably stupid. Not because of the enormous privilege I have, one so big I can’t even recognise the problems they’re facing.
I don’t feel like I’m getting through you, but I recommend you watch this video, https://youtu.be/V-a9VDIbZCU. It’s about very related problems, and the host explains the problem I’m describing in an entertaining way with visual examples.
That really blows. Are you living in one of those chinese/japanese domiciles that are essentially just cages for people?
Sardine-culture aside, perhaps you can try an air fryer. I honestly have never used one, but it seems like something people would recommend as a replacement and they take up a fraction of the space.
Not really, at least couple of steps above, it’s 30 square meters overall. It’s nice for me, but the kitchen is too small to have such luxuries as an oven.

Well, I don’t recognise a problem, it probably doesn’t exist then.
A toaster oven can do most things that a full-sized oven can do.
