Nah, social division of labour is almost as old as civilization itself. It’s not possible to do everything by yourself, if you’re lucky enough not to die of hunger in a few weeks, you’ll die of a preventable disease within a few years.
Capitalist exploitation of it (combined with faux individualism) is the issue.
Translating to this scenario, there would be no issue if we had community kitchens with cheap/free food and well-paid workers. The issue is the capitalists extracting surplus value
from a basic necessity, partly by convincing everyone to hate their neighbours and eat alone.
