    Reiterating as a former college student who was perfectly capable of cooking: the problem for most college students isn't just lack of cooking skill, it's lack of facilities, equipment, and access to quality ingredients that aren't shelf-stable.
    When I was in college I figured out how to make couscous in the microwave in a disposable coffee cup so I had a snack for my duty time, but the only stove/oven I had access to was in the common room and I wasn't storing decent pots, pans, and baking vessels in my limited cabinet space just to have to carry them down two flights of stairs to use them and then back up again when dinner was done. I also didn't have a car for the first two years, so I couldn't go grocery shopping, although I could steal whatever produce and bread were in the dining hall... not the same...

      That's some hardcore effort lmao, I was lucky that there was a microwave in my first year halls, so I just shoved everything in there, eyeballed how long it would need (I eventually figured out you can divide the oven time by 6 and use full power on the microwave) and then hopefully I wouldn't get food poisoning (:

E.g. chicken breast = put in glass tray, fill up to half height of breast with water, cover with cling film (no need to pierce holes) and then it's oven time ÷ 6 = 3.5-5 mins

    I don't think I would have had time to cook those things back when I was a college student. Between work, classes, and studding I usually did microwave food because you could just pop it in the microwave and go back to studding until it was done. I also did a lot of salad since that was something easy to throw together. You should do an episode of college students making their favorite meal while you make your own version of their favorite meal at the same time lol.

    I’m not even a college student, but I found this recipe last night for a buffalo chicken sandwich (I created it… I think) Here’s what I used and how I cooked it:
    -Publix Chicago Italian sliced bread
    -Chicken breasts (and/or lunch meats if chicken seems to complicated, I also tried ham with it)
    -Hot sauce
    For the bread, put some butter in a pan and toast both sides of the two pieces. Next, cook a chicken breast in a frying pan with olive oil (if you’re making it with lunch meat, I’d recommend putting it in a frying pan with butter just to warm it up) and drizzle some hot sauce on the meat after putting it on the bread. 10/10 meal IMO.

      I do eat meat and yes I agree that it can be a big part of the expenses when buying groceries, but my comment was sort of joking. On the subject of meat, there are ways to stretch out meat in meals to make it cheaper, like adding more veggies or supplementing with things like beans. A whole chicken easily feeds me for an entire week. I'm also a fisherman, so part of my diet is fish, which is free from the sea (excluding the fishing gear needed of course). One can also buy cheaper cuts of meat. It's quite easy to get meat cheaply

      Thalanox as an extremely amature cook(I basically know 2 dishes) living off campus of college right now, their kitchen seemed pretty similar to what I have and have had in the past. Normally the kitchen/dining room has an oven, a sink, a fridge, and some storage with space being the most limiting factor.
      I got a bad case of food poisoning when I first started out from some food that I thought kept pretty well, so I try to make my food on a meal by meal basis now instead of making larger amounts like josh made in this video. I still manage to keep myself to ~40-50$ a week, but repetitively cooking the same stuff over and over gets sickening after a couple months. I’ll probably try out at least one of josh’s recipes from this episode if only to try something new.

      I mean, it's the truth tho, I can cook decently but sometimes you just don't have time to do something, even if it's simple. During finals I barely eat at all, sometimes remember to buy some bread or something that I can eat while walking and that's all. I live with another girl and we don't like leaving the kitchen too messy and doing food just means having barely time to eat and leaving the pans and plates on the sink for a few weeks until either of us have enough time to remember cleaning them, so we just prefer buying food, which is quite expensive but it's better than no eating, I suppose.

I can cook but I hate washing pots and pans when I can make it in a single bowl that I also eat out of.

    4. and open the door to the hallway when the smoke detector goes off.

A bathroom where the tub faucet had three holes for the faucet and a piece of caulk on the side of the tub to ensure the water wouldn't just flow over the top because one or more of the extra holes in the faucet was directly over the rim. Finally the bathroom light was one of those curvy florescent deals and when it you hit the switch to turn it on you'd wait a few seconds then the light would flicker with an associated buzzing noise for a few more seconds and then finally turn on :D. Kinda like something out of a movie where the bad guy checks into that seedy motel that even rats wouldn't use as a toilet.

Let's say i was eating cheap meat for 1 euro, well, a whole chicken is 2 euros here and that's what people don't understand or hven't been taught, you can eat better meals, for the same amount of money, or with just little extra.

This kind of video is so helpful for me and I am sure many others right now. I try to budget best I can but I know I can always learn more. I make cooking videos too so you know I’m making lots of food so every penny I can save on groceries counts. I hope that we can continue to learn from each other. Never stop learning and growing!

    In case you're new
    Easy=hard cause you don't have ingredients
    Very easy=medium for cooking and more affordable like ingredients
    Super easy=easy something as simple as grilled cheese(but still takes time like 45+ minutes

    This is still too expensive for my taste. And why did your baguette cost 5 dollars? You got ripped off.

    I love cooking and it's a hobby. I went to community college and then finished my bachelor's online. So I got to eat the good food I made at home. My friends in dorms ... I learned how to make things in coffee pots, microwaves, Lekue Microwave Grill (amazon) for burgers, and lots of tin foil. They didn't have an oven or stove so we got CREATIVE. Thankfully they ate more than $1 ramen and mac n cheese.
