Do you guys ever just get into a funk and only want takeout?

[Anonymous]

Often. Especially when I have pms or feel unsupported at home. My husband is not one to cook, kid is picky. I usually get a curry.

We actually get in funks where to-go food just totally bores us. Like we've had it all and just you don't crave literally any food at all. So we end up eating super light homemade dinners and drinking a lot of wine during those spells haha

No. I'm a great cook and never does take out the better than what I can make. However I'm often exhausted and just don't have the energy and do take out. Yes my DH can cook, but it tastes terrible.

What?

Japanese noodles. They're pronounced "lamen", so I write it like that. The other spelling is ramen. Both are acceptable, and delicious!

lmao wow that’s a new one

No. Can't stand the lack of good food options in this area. Prefer to eat at home. Now if I was back home or in NYC or LA, yes!

No. Over_priced. Unhealthy. I can make it faster and better myself. Plus, we don’t have to order, wait, call for mistakes, overeat, deal with unsanitary issues, etc.

After the last almost 2 years, yes cooking and emptying the dishwasher annoys the crap out of me. But I know we cannot carry out every night. I’m starting to hate food.

Same, girl, same.

Yes. I was doing well this fall with mostly cooking, and then I took a fall and am injured and we are basically back to deep pandemic Uber eats/Doordash levels of ordering.

It's not unheard of. DC has a restaurant called Reren Lamen.

Yes, for about the past year and a half.

Yes, but I'm also sick of all the local take-out options. I find myself craving take-out from places I've lived in the past.

But this is also compounded by the fact that I now have a medical gluten-intolerance, so I can no longer eat my favorite kind of take-out which is Chinese food. I can now recreate GF versions of my favorites at home, but the comfort of not having to prep, cook, and clean is obviously not available to me. It's really sad

I’m feeling like this right now, and I can’t even get excited for holiday food. We’ve already stayed home so long that we’ve eaten all the things.

I’m right there with you!

I'm sick of eating, period. Someone invent a beverage that has all the calories/fat/nutrients you need in a day. Please, take my money.
