[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Family of four. Me and husband both work fulltime jobs. I work a pretty steady 40 hours a week, but husband generally works about 50-60 hours a week. This means I have to drive the kids to all their activities so I don't have much time to cook. We probably eat out 5 times a week. Lunch is almost always at home but dinner is usually carryout from a restaurant. I feel like such a failure for eating out so much. Anyone else eat out this much? Help me feel better about my excessive eating out please. We do try to keep fast food to once a week and will get food from Whole Foods, cava salads, bbq, things like that. [/quote]

I have in-laws who do this. They are busy and it’s an easy thing to outsource if you have the budget. Don’t feel bad! You have a full time job and you take care of your kids after school. The only way for you to cook more is if you stayed up late or woke up early to do it. Don’t worry about it. Takeout can be healthy and delicious and home cooking can be flavorless and unhealthy. I have the time to cook often, so I do. But I would never judge anyone who didn’t![/quote]
