Yeah it absolutely baffles me as well. I tend to just cook for 4 days or something in one go. If I’m lazy I can even get pre-cut veggies, a pot is pasta sauce, some meaty and some pasta. It’s not that much effort and you could make enough to eat for days.
I was raised with the mentality that takeout or going to a restaurant was a luxury, which makes sense since it’s fucking expensive. And personally I feel like takeout is almost more of a hassle. You have to order on some site that is more advertisement than useful (or worse, call someone). Then you either have to wait till they bring it or get it somewhere, in which time you cannot really do much useful anyway, and on top of that its fucking expensive and often unhealthy.
