Convenience. To be able to REALLY stock up and only go
to store once a month

Just because it works for you what makes you think all single guys
need more time alone to spend with their blow up doll.

Ah, now I understand. Nope, it won't work. Things like cereals, flour,
granola bars, oatmeal, pasta, (not bread), last for months outside the
refrigerator/freezer anyway. Produce like apples, lettuce, parsley,
tomatoes, don't last in the refrigerator for months, and they're
unalterably changed and unusable in the freezer. You end up going to
the supermarket more often than once a month anyway. If you can stand
voluntarily never eating anything fresh (I can't) and want to eat frozen
vegetables, canned vegetables, powdered milk, I suppose it could work,
but I'd want a better reason to make such a sacrifice than just convenience.

If you mean that, buying a freezer won't help. It won't clean up your
bug infestations and it won't cure your phobias.

In general, that's not a goal worth pursuing. Specifically as to
quality cooking and eating it's a counter-productive goal. -aem

My one-word response: texture.
