On: In Remote Alaska, Meal Planning Is Everything

What are the meals you don't like, and cook anyway? Why do you even stock ingredients for them then? Are they just easier to make, or?

Not the parent, but I read it as, sometimes you're cooking the meal you want to eat tonight. Other times it's "What do I have in the house?"

There definitely many times when I'm "I should use something from the freezer" or "I need to use this meat cut I bought a couple days ago."

That makes sense

Like there are bunch of dried lentils we would keep as they don't go bad and we could cook them less frequently.
