Question: What are you afraid of if you have mageirocophobia?
Answer: You have an abnormal fear of cooking. For some people, it’s only a fear of cooking for large groups, while others might be afraid even of making scrambled eggs for themselves. Psychologists say the fear can spring from multiple sources: Fear of making someone sick, fear of the cooking process (fire, spills, even anxiety over seasonings), and in extreme cases, even a fear of recipes.
