Yeah, I had a flatmate not long ago that took 'enjoying cooking' to a lewvel I'd never witnessed before.
He would spend three or four hours in the kitchen each night and sometimes all day on Saturdays and Sundays.
It baffled me to no end to spend that much time just to sate hunger.

Yeah I spend ~40 minutes making dinner and then another 40 minutes later in the evening making lunch for myself and my partner for the following day. Then there's cleaning up time as well. I like having home made food at work the next day but it's time I could be using for programming and other things really.

Clearly he wasn't trying to sate hunger. Cooking is as much of a hobby as hacking or being a "maker." Plus eating food is way more than just satiating hunger. I don't like cooking but I loving eating and drinking.
Don't get me wrong, I love eating as well as cooking, but I have to agree that a stupid amount of time is spent on doing those things. If I could switch to a solution where I take a pill and it provides my body with all possible nutrition then I would in an instant.
