Hell I had to get fast food one night because our cats got into the food we were gonna make and it ended up costing like $40 for a couple sandwiches and fries. Fuck that noise.

Darling. A single night eating out could feed us for a week. And we eat good. Shepherd pie. Pork stew. Salmon with asparagus. Homemade toast and jelly. Some of these replies make it sound like folks are eating beef and expensive deli cheese every meal.

A "lazy meal" for us is homemade pasta sauce (literally just blended canned tomatoes with some spices and oil) tossed in with a dollar box of noodles and ground pork sausage, and buttered up leftover bread heels.

The only way eating at home is more expensive is if either 1) you're buying expensive groceries. Like brand name. And just ignoring the store brand stuff 2) you're literally throwing away food Cent per oz will always add up to less than eating out. Always
