The industrialization of kitchens is just fast food. A bunch of frozen shit from factories get distributed amongst all the chain spots with hyper optimized supply chain logistics
People who open a kitchen all want to make the best food that they can with their budget. Because food in industrialized countries is all an art and chefs/owners want to be able to feel proud of their work. Industrializing it could only come from a capitalist who just wants to maximize profits with no care about the quality and the best way to do that is through fast food chains
We don't actually need any of this to "strengthen the working class". We've already figured out modern agricultural science to produce a surplus, it's just imperialists that prevent everybody from obtaining that (US using the World Bank/iMF to prevent Africa from becoming self sustaining + biowarfare against their enemies like Cuba and China to kill their livestock)
Fast food & microwave dinners are a form of industrialized kitchens but not the only one it can take. You can also have centralized factories that produce thousands of boxed lunches per day. Japan does this with ekiben for example.
Cooking is a part of domestic labor. It takes up free time out of work, it's unpaid, its workers tend to be women, and it's individual instead of socialized labor. Everyone ought to be able to cook for themselves if they want, but automation and collectivization of cooking (and the domestic sector in general) is desirable.
Is this not the same as microwave dinners and sandwiches at gas stations but with a Japanese accent
Agreed, but it'll be probably just be restaurants and cafeteria style imo instead of industrialized food at the scale of OP's video
No it's not. Microwave dinners are frozen, whereas these are refrigerated meals.
