They were all very capable of cooking, but it was something that was new to me and they made the situation an ordeal. I love fast food and enjoy ready meals. I'm not someone who is a 'clean-eater' (what a load of nonsense anyway) or a health freak, but my flatmates would look down on me because of what I chose to eat. It was quite disgusting actually and made me somewhat uncomfortable - so I think that's were it comes from. That experience has just caused me to become quite outspoken about it.

Good for you. I never used to say boo to a goose when I was younger but having worked with the public all my life and had my nice nature taken advantage of on many occasions I now stand up for what I believe in...don't suffer fools lightly and stand up to anyone who I think is a bully or out of order.
