Hot take - people complaining that their time and effort makes homemade meals more expensive than eating out wildly overestimate how much their time and effort is worth.

    @VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social It's not really "what your time and effort is worth". It is what you would have made in that time interval. If you would have used that time to think, you put way too much effort into shopping.

  • @VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social Single person here; not only is eating out more expensive I, selfishly, only cook stuff that I'm going to really like😋 ( I seldom buy something I'm not going to be able to eat [or freeze/preserve] before it's uneatable. anything that gets past me feeds my worms🪱)

    @VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social depends where you live - spent 6 months in southeast asia last year with my wife - tried to cook at home couple of times - but was about 2x more expensive than eating out;) back home - hell no;)
