As an European student, my freezer is also filled with pizza rolls and other junk food. But that’s only because my fridge is filled with fresh produce and my cupboards have lots of dry ingredients. Cooking simple dishes from common ingredients is easy and quick once you got a couple of go-tos and the freezer is only for “guilty pleasure” snacks. That cart looks like my snack run. Many ads show “quick and easy” meals here too, but luckily I learned (in school) how to cook on my own, quickly and easily despite my schedule
Many people are not that privileged. Adding onto that: Building up a spice rack and knowing what and how takes work. If youre already in the processed food trap learning how to cook not only takes time but also seems useless because you can spend just 1 dollar more and you save the time
