Is it normal for Europeans to not have an oven?

[PlattitüdenPaule]

Though only a very recent discovery in Europa, most of us already have one at home/the block/2 per community by generous funding from humanitarian organizations.

It's pretty common. What's not that common is the microwave (euros think they'll get cancer lol), maybe their english is poor and they meant that.

Yeah thats true, microwaves have this stigma of being cancerous to foods, plus its only good for shitty foods

Nothing wrong with microwaving the food. What is really harmful is standing close to the microwave oven while it's on.

Microwaves are present in 95% of homes in Russia I think, but for example I avoid standing next to it when it's warming up the food. It's not good for albumen of your body, especially for the eye whites, it's not about cancer. But I use it really rare.

Well, it's good for warming up already prepared food or its remains, but not more than that.

No, everybody has an oven. The main difference is some don't have a dishwasher, especially old people, whereas in the US even small student appartments come equipped with it, as if we couldn't wash a single plate, you lazyfucks.

AC is less common i believe as well, you don't really need it anyway around the Alps latitude and above.

I heard that Americans don't have saunas at home how weird are those people. I'm losing my mind to think that a human being could live without one.

Russians thought the same, but lots of people here lost interest to saunas/banyas in last two generations. I don't like it at all, just like I never take bath, only streaming shower.

I don't have a microwave because my family doesn't approve of it and I hate the taste of most microwaved food regardless. You can warm soup on the stove and meat in the oven, it's an unnecessary appliance

The Microwaves aren't that uncommon here.
