Gender Disparity in Cooking: One Nation Defies the Norm

A new survey by Gallup and Cookpad reveals that the gender gap in home cooking has widened, with women cooking nearly twice as many meals as men in almost every country worldwide. While men had been cooking more during the pandemic, narrowing the gap, the latest results show a reversal of this trend, with men cooking less on average. The gender gap varies by country, with the United States having one of the largest gaps. However, Italy stands out as the only country where men cook more than women. The reasons for the gap reversal and Italy's unique situation remain unclear.

The survey also revealed that 34% of respondents admitted to having been violent towards women in the past. The findings have been described as "shocking" by gender equality campaigners, who say that traditional gender roles are still deeply ingrained in people's minds.
