If it were easier to walk or bike to get food it would be different. Sometimes I don't want to spend 30 minutes in a metal death box for a burrito. We cook most of our meals at home but occasional delivery is nice.

I have never ordered via delivery service for my food except the traditional pizza delivery. I can’t see spending that much to drop off a meal for myself. I go pick it up if they don’t deliver, or I just don’t order in.

People really, really need to learn to cook for themselves. Nothing wrong with the odd takeout, or even delivery but I sense a lot of people live on deliveries all the time and waste a fortune

I can't be arsed to wait for food delivery. I'll pick it up if I don't have the supplies and time to cook it. I was thinking I want a CWS for om Taco bell, but I still have planned-overs in my fridge. Also, the upcharge on food delivery apps are insane. I'll bake a frozen pizza instead for 5 dolla.

Never really thought of getting food delivered, with prices like that I shall continue not to.

The expectation comes from SoftBank investing billions into Uber to kickstart the ride share industry.

I've never ordered food to my door. Not even pizza. The rare times I order takeout pizza I pick it up myself. Unless you're a senior citizen it just seems so wasteful and lazy and comically expensive to have food delivered to you. I mean I get that we're absolutely going to destroy this planet, but holy shit are we speedrunning it.
