Cooking truly is inefficient. Just eat raw vegetables, rusk or crispbread, and cheese. Saves time and there is no food waste either.

People are not going hungry because there is not enough food being produced. It's an economic and social issue that can and should be tackled with taxes and welfare programs. Specifically targeting "waste" is a red herring that absolves politicians and the populace from targeting the root causes of poverty and hunger.

All your anecdotes about cooking or freezing bread are completely besides the point, tho we did learn that eating TV dinners is dire so that's something I guess.

Fresh vegetables or fancy home cooked dinners don't possess magic particles know as "nutrients". Or rather they do, but so does most food. Unless you are talking actual vitamin deficiency, like scurvy or something, the obsession with organic local super health foods we have today is like homeopathy or belief in magic crystals.

Fresh food and home cooking isn't automatically more nutritious or healthier, but on average something you prepared with fresh ingredients from a grocery store is likely to be a lot healthier for you than something you popped in the microwave or purchased at a fast food restaurant. And you're the first person to bring up "organic" or "local" in this conversation. We're talking about really basic nutritional stuff that just about any doctor could confirm for you, not hippy dippy crystal healing poo poo.

On average, sure. The second point was more directed at society and trends in general.
