Woman goes to bed hungry after refusing to eat mother-in-law's 'terrible' cooking

A woman facing the prospect of eating her mother-in-law's "terrible" cooking for the next few months says she's been left wondering whether to now try and broach the topic in a "tactful" manner. She and her husband are currently living with his parents while awaiting the sale of their property completes, and she isn't sure how to proceed.

Although she's very grateful to her in-laws for letting them stay under their roof, she feels the current cooking situation just isn't working out. Following the rise in energy prices, they've recently been told the oven can only be used once a day going forward, meaning the mother-in-law will be preparing all family meals going forward.

Prior to the price hike, she and her husband would just sort out their own food, due to them having "differing" tastes from his parents. This new change is all the more stressful given she has a "somewhat strained relationship with food" and is "very particular" about the quality and appearance of her meals.
