How to use cook in a sentence?

  1. Mary Jo Kreitzer:

  2. Donna Kalil:

  3. Albert Einstein:

    Salt can cook food

  4. Joe Manchin:

    This is a recipe for disaster. The federal government has no business telling American families how to cook their dinner. I can tell you the last thing that would ever leave my house is the gas stove that we cook on, if this is the greatest concern that the Consumer Product Safety Commission has for American consumers, I think we need to reevaluate the commission.

  5. Kevin Gillespie:

    Why does a server decide when a guest is ready to eat and when a cook is ready to prepare food? That seems real stupid, the only true sense of time that exists in food is the time it takes for something to cook.
