Not everything in life is about efficiency. While we’re at it everyone could sleep in barracks like spaces. Very efficient.

I agree, but at some point compromises are going to have to be made. Our current way of living is just not sustainable

There are far greater issues at stake before we need to remove kitchens from people's houses and implement public canteens. Plastic, palm oil, excessive meat consumption, proliferation of cars, climate change etc. etc.

The problem isn't home cooking, the problem is take away, inefficiently packaged groceries, and avoidable car journeys for food delivery or shopping. I think these are exactly the types of issues that can be solved! Shops that allow you to use your own containers, the return of grocery vans, communal kitchens and/or canteens for when you dont have time to cook...

> communal kitchens and/or canteens for when you dont have time to cook

That's kind of what restaurants are now, along with takeout.
