Why are some people like cooking? (Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks) Well, in my opinion, people of all ages like cooking, especially people who are dynamic and creative. They love it and are always ready to learn new things from new perfect ingredients from scratch. This is really cool and amazing. Sometimes, cooking doesn't help everyone to reduce stress and ease sorrowful heart after hard work but also brings about positive thinking, they like to cook food styles they love and it will be more splendid and wonderful if someone praises or compliments them on their toothsome or tasty food, this makes them really satisfied and contented. Besides that, cooking helps them to heal relationships and makes their family members closer in particular. In Vietnam, some gentlemen are quite conservative, they reckon that cooking is uninspiring, wastes their time and energy and it's just only for women or ladies :D. They really dislike it :(
