Tasty tales bridges the gap between generations by fostering meaningful connections and learning through the shared experience of cooking and storytelling.

According to a 2024 survey conducted in the United States, younger generations are increasingly lacking the cooking skills of previous generations. Poor cooking skills may be a barrier to healthy eating and a contributor to being overweight and obesity due to relying on convenience and pre-prepared foods.

A Pew Research survey found that 79% of the public believes there is a generation gap when it comes to things such as technology use, ethics, beliefs and values. However, social activities which bring generations together have found those who participate discover more similarities than first believed.
