Correct

Cooking is a tedious and unfortunately, daily task, made even more so by the onset of a recent global pandemic. 

This answer is correct. The author is generalizing and therefore stereotyping that ALL people who now work from home dislike cooking and consider it a chore, while some people maybe enjoy cooking. 

Remember, a stereotype is a fixed, widely held belief about a particular group of people or things. However, these beliefs are over-generalized. When we stereotype someone or something, we are drawing the conclusion that this person or thing possesses an entire range of characteristics we assume all members of that group have.
