I guess it's a function of interest. I can certainly understand not enjoying or being interested cooking. I have one friend who loathes cooking, and she doesn't really enjoy meal-type food all that much. She'd rather eat snacks/candy/junk food than meals.

I love being in the kitchen -- creating, working with my hands (like making bread) and challenging myself to come up with delicious meals. I find being in the kitchen therapeutic and a lot of fun. Yes, it can be messy with all the dishes and whatnot, but when you hit on something just right (like the vegan stew recipe I tried last week), it's so gratifying. I guess I'm a foodie? I do enjoy eating delicious food, and I want the food I make to be delicious
