A lot of people are saying to learn to cook, but things aren't that simple. Many people know how to cook perfectly well but order out anyway, either because they're busy or because they have mental health conditions that make cooking incredibly stressful.
We need to change our economic system so that CEO bonuses aren't inflating the prices of people's food. This would make it easier for people to eat out more often if they feel they need to. It shouldn't break the bank to get simple meals at a restaurant.

I mean… at least it’s still fast, right?
Seriously though, I don’t remember the last time I ate fast food. If we don’t count pizza delivery that is.
People in comments saying to cook for yourself. I do cook for myself but geez grocery prices aren’t making it easy.
I cook for myself and it's still not good
Our produce and ingredients suck here in the US. It's all devoid of nutrition and usually gamed to look better than it actually is. Lots of things taste funny to me, and if it's not flavorless, it tastes like chemicals or metal. There's simply no regulation or oversight.
When I have food that is grown or produced locally (and ethically) or food that is imported from Europe or even Canada, the difference is stark — I feel like I can actually digest and the flavor is night and day.
"Prices aren't making it easy", covers at least a decade I am not looking forward to. I wager that a $65 Xbox controller will become a $200 item in a couple of years.

the point is your parents forgot to teach you how to cook
My parents cooking was meant to be forgotten. Alton Brown is my Yoda.

Go to In-N-Out. It's the superior fast food brand
Either that or cook in your own god-damn house
It's not fast food though. In-N-Out takes much longer than most sit down restaurants.
yeah shove that corpse right in my face i fucking love cruelty and violence against vulnerable individuals
Hell fucking yes, good food is delicious.
Shake and bake baby
As someone who hasn't eaten recently and who loves burgers...
