[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cooking at home is cheaper, but only if you buy cheaper ingredients obviously. So no big steaks, expensive seafood, out of season organic veggies... With regular ingredients you can easily eat for under $15/family per meal with planning. At a restaurant that is $50+. As far as time, I work too and I never make weekday meals that take over 30 minutes of active time. Getting in the car and going out, waiting at restaurant would take much longer, and delivery services cost extra.[/quote] This is more about eating out vs cooking at home, not cost. I think high quality food makes a big difference in cooking at home. And specialty food stores an example is Zabar’s in NYC where you can buy premade pieces of your meal, fresh vegetables or cooked already, fresh bread, bakery, salads with fresh lettuce and other ingredients. It makes it really easy. No pots or pans. [/quote]
