My roommate told me I'm wasting money on pre-chopped veggies and I got defensive at first

Totally get that, sometimes people don't realize how much time and energy those little conveniences save you. It's super easy to get defensive when someone points out a habit you actually find helpful.

Actually, efficiency hasn't always been the main reason people stuck with those conveniences. A lot of older habits stuck around just because that's how things were always done, not because they saved time. Once you pull that thread, the defensiveness makes even more sense since it's tied up in family tradition or routine.
