The only reason I need a refrigerator, stovetop, microwave, and sink I'd because I couldn't easily feed myself without them. Sure I could eat out every day but that's expensive and not very healthy. All I want is is two filling meals a day and maybe a snack. I already eat shit at work is a quasi cafeteria setting so at home what do I cook? Not well because living in an apartment makes it harder to cook, cooking for a single person is usually impossible because there's so much wasted food that I won't eat while it's fresh because of our buy in bulk culture. But what if every apartment building had a communal kitchen or two where meals were served on a schedule, it would literally set restaurants out of business and that's a good thing. Eating in a communal setting would definitely cut down on obesity and overconsumption. It would also be easier to make the people vegan since nobody can cook for themselves. Also if you ever had to deal with dinner table politics with friends or family that would probably end forever because neighbors and strangers don't want to hear your asinine opinions in everything and might rightfully beat you for saying something ignorant. Obviously no alcohol which would be good for society, no large portions, strict management of food. Oh and it's fucking free.

    One of those people sharing the kitchen would be a complete pig though who never cleans up, dulls the knives and puts the cast iron pans in the dishwasher.

      Well shit, you've just described like 3 of my old roommates.

      We need re-education camps for people who mistreat cast iron skillets.

      You don't understand, a cafeteria setting would have a group of people preparing the food for a much larger group of people every day, there would be no stealing treats from the fridge at midnight without there being consequences. Every morsel of food should be accounted for to prevent waste.

        Accounting for every bit of food sounds a bit too Dickensian for my tastes.
