The interesting part for me, is that while cooking has been seen as a “woman’s job”, most professional chefs are Men!
For years, kitchen related toys were advertised to little girls while boys were shown playing sports or with tools or trucks… and yet… there are far more men leading kitchens professionally than there are women.
I guess women were just expected to cook for their families and not profit or prestige.
I totally agree - women were expected to make the meals and do the hard labour but not for visibility or accolades. We definitely have a ways to go as we're not out of the woods yet (as you rightly said - "fluffy and fancy" is still attributed to women.

The whole quiche situation is funny.
Food is manly… unless it’s fluffy and fancy.
Our society is weird 😄🥧
