I don’t get it either. That shit is so much more expensive. Not only are they charging you delivery fees and “convenience” fees, the base prices of what you’re ordering at are also inflated through apps like Doordash and Uber Eats. Something that is only $5 if you went and got it yourself is now $8, plus a delivery fee, plus other fees. And then there is also a chance that the person delivering it is a piece of shit who just steals your food.
If I have to work late and don’t have time to cook, and my kids need to be in bed in an hour and a half, then I’m going to pay a little extra, and that’s fine.
Not everyone has a wide open schedule every night.
Agreed 100%. It takes longer, costs more, and it’s worse. My credit card gives me a premium membership and monthly vouchers and I still don’t order that shit because it still costs more and stuff from the freezer tastes better.
Wife and I can also make better food, which may contribute to my distaste for delivery apps.

Sometimes you need the convenience.

And even if your food does show up … it’s cold. Do people just not know that food tastes worse the longer it’s been out of the oven?
