The Huffington Post is declaring the week of February 22nd as “The Week of Eating In” where, for seven whole days, readers are asked to cook all of their own food:

We’re proud to announce that starting on Monday February 22nd, HuffPost Green and HuffPost Eyes&Ears will be doing The Week of Eating In. For seven days, we’ll invite you to take a pledge to eat in, aka COOK all of your own food for a week. There are no complex rules to follow. Just sign up below so that we can communicate with you, and pledge to do the week by letting your Facebook friends and Twitter followers know what you are up to.
We’re defining cooking with broad strokes. We encourage you to use basic, whole food ingredients to prepare food, avoiding pre-packaged, pre-made food, like frozen dinners and ready-to-eat canned goods, but there are no strict rules. Make the rules for yourself. If this experiment for you means making your own bread and eating locally, so be it. If it means turning on your stove for the first time in your life, that’s great too.
We think The Week of Eating In is important for the environment for a number of reasons.

What’s next? “The Week of Ironing Your Own Shirt?”
