Home-delivered meals have always bothered me. It looks like the perfect example of overlooked irresponsible .

You have a **fridge** where you can store food for days, a **freezer** where you can store food for months, **grocery stores and supermarkets** everywhere around you (some of them open during weekends or at night), convenient **online orders** and cheap **delivery** of those groceries…

…and yet you need that a local restaurant wraps their stuff in way more plastic and paper than is necessary, and that some kid jumps on a dirty moped and whizzes dangerously through the city to get to your door _right now_?

At 11PM?

@tripu Home Delivery is 'efficient' because STEM does ALL the hard work (and waste) so you don't have to spend your time...

That's the modern-day sense of 'efficient'
>_<

P.S Also to be fair and on the other side, the main temptation with ordering (according to me) is somewhat a luxury/lavish convenience thing (low frequency/price cost/self-gift) and for the range of food compared to supermarket and skills (menu being MUCH better cooked than supermarket versions or what people can do... even if it's inside a heap of plastics rattled around on a moped etc!!)
