I think none shud hate cooking as long as one loves eating. having said that u have a real peroblem, why didnt u enquire before marriage?U will have to initiate her in cooking lovingly, help her in kitchen, initially easy recipes only. tel her that ur son needs good and healthy food, may be not for u but for her son she may start cooking.Good luck!

You can very well feel why your wife don't like to to cook , because despite being foodie you don't like it . So try to make the act fun . Help her in cooking and setting the table and even if you don't like make a complete meal for the family sometimes so that she too do the same . If your son is older enough involve him in the act too . There are easy recipes which you can make without much bothering .
And there is no harm in having meals at restaurants once or twice a week too .

In that case, I think you both should do the cooking together...If you cook things that you like, yourself and ask your wife to help you with it, I don't think she ll have any prob with that..and fighting is no way to solving the problem..it could affect the thinking of your son...Always try to be calm and composed..If you are indeed a very big foodie, then try to shelve some extra money and search for some good cook!

there are a lot of things we hate to do in life,but we have to do them if we are to survive and have a decent life.you and your wife have to compromise if not for your sake then for the sake of your son.make easy meals,cook large amounts at a time and use the fridge.

If both of u hate cooking, & u can't get a cook, it's going to be difficult...try to get a cook, it's not that difficult if u r ready to pay good. otherwise both of u try to do the cooking together. nobody can make someone do a job she hates, unless she herself wants to do it for the sake of the family.
