Hey, hang in there! And don't ask yourself WHY you can't do this... just ask yourself HOW you can do this.

Apologies... I just read the last post after replying... Still, should anyone else have this issue...

How about keeping a blender in your bedroom?

In the winter, you can store frozen fruit and veggies outside on the porch. Then bring your blender to the kitchen, make a smoothie. Wash out the blender immediately and put it right back in your room. That way you'll get your nice liquid breakfast or snack without cluttering up their kitchen.

Also, what about keeping a dehydrator in your room? Buy your food, prep it immediately, put in on the trays... and then clean up the kitchen before they even see it. If it's the mess they don't like, then you won't have any more trouble and you'll have resolved the issue. This also resolves the issue of you not having anywhere to store your raw food.

Fresh fruit in a bedroom may cause issue. But dried foods kept in sealed glass or plastic containers won't be a rodent/bug risk and can be stored/stacked on the top shelf of a closet.
