Most people like to cook homemade meals or rather like to think they are cooking homemade meals. The Wall Street Journal says experts have studied this to such a degree that they know if people open and add two sauce packets to a dish it feels like you’ve cooked something.  Just one sauce packet doesn’t deliver the same feeling of creation. Adding an egg to a cake mix creates the same feeling, even when a powdered egg could easily have been built in to the mix.
