You know I just thought of something.
Men love to eat but their mouths water like that of a dog when it’s time to eat their momma’s home cooking. Of course, they try to act demure and shy but they really want to do cartwheels and backflips when it comes to moms home cooked vittles.
If they had to make an honest decision when it comes to choosing what’s in the pot between mom or their wife. Bottom line. Men like their mother’s cooking better, even if they are living happily ever after with their wife, spouse, mate or girlfriend.
Mothers serve up fanciful homecooked meals, have a wider repertoire of dishes, and always cook something they know their sons like.
Wives and girlfriends, on the other hand, are likely to rely on the microwave or oven-ready meals from the freezer because they are strapped for time because of work or childcare.
Research also found that one in four men often sneaks back to their mum’s for a spot of dinner without his wife or girlfriend knowing. But it has to be quite endearing that men prefer their mother’s cooking.
As adults, men still seek the comfort and tradition of the cooking they have grown up with so they turn to their mums for what they perceive as a ‘proper meal”.
On the other hand, research also found more than one in 10 men think wives feel under pressure to live up to mother-in-law’s cooking skills. With that said, can you imagine the hell that breaks loose when a man may suggest that his woman take cooking advice from his mom or mother-n-law per se? Whew? I don’t want to be around for that one.
So on that note, ladies, turn up the heat in the kitchen or simply accept that moms have that mommy magic when it comes to satisfying the dining pleasures of their son. Don’t look at it as a bad thing. Because just think. If you’re a mom, with a son, then your baby will be coming home to devour your casseroles, Sunday dinners and anything that you cook. You’ll be on the other end of the victorious cooking spoon and can smile, beam and be proud. Just take it easy on the missus!
