    It’s a meal that I don’t have to cook after a hard day of work, and is most likely an expression of love. There’s nothing that tastes better than that.

      Honesty and the ability to receive constructive criticism are pretty great things in a relationship. Since it doesn’t pass as ‘something I don’t have to cook’, I would just thank her a lot, and apologise but say I prefer it a bit more well done, and perhaps show her how I like it. Maybe mention the risks that come with undercooked chicken. I would also be infinitely grateful if she showed me nice tricks or just simply explain in detail how she would like me to do stuff for her. All kinds of stuff.

      That shit took 5 mins to prepare tops. Like if someone slaved away in the kitchen and it just turns out bad that’s one thing. I can put on a brave face and appreciate the effort for that. This plate on the other hand is an insult to the chicken that died for it. Hard to imagine that someone didn’t mess it up on purpose to be honest. I wouldn’t say that of course but I wouldn’t eat it either. “I’m sorry, it just doesn’t look like something I’d like to eat. If you like it that’s great but be sure the chicken is thoroughly cooked. I’d rather make something else for myself now.” That’s what I’d like to hear in a situation like that so that’s what I’d say.
