Meet our home chef (34F) and her husband Paul (35M), a couple who’ve found harmony in their two-year marriage through a simple rule: one cooks, the other cleans. But when Paul’s newfound passion for healthy eating and fad diets enters the scene, the kitchen becomes a battleground. With our heroine constantly experimenting with new, messier recipes to accommodate Paul’s ever-changing dietary needs, the cleaning task becomes more daunting. And Paul isn’t happy about it.

In a twist of domestic drama, our home chef finds herself in the midst of a culinary conflict with her husband, Paul. Their once harmonious arrangement of cooking and cleaning is disrupted by Paul’s new dietary preferences, leading to messier cooking experiments. Paul, who’s responsible for cleaning, feels the mess is becoming a burden and accuses his wife of being ‘careless’. She counters by suggesting he take up half the cooking, which he declines. She insists on sticking to their original agreement, while Paul proposes a ‘marital compromise’. But our home chef stands her ground. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this sizzling situation…
