[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just bought scallops at Whole Foods on my lunch hour. They were $11, and I'll make them with pasta, butter and salt. So let's say that's $14 total. At what restaurant will I get a meal for $14? It'll take me 20 minutes to make, and most of that time is waiting for the pasta water to boil and the 8 minutes the pasta has to cook. I'll clean up for a total of five minute[b]s. Most of the time when I want pizza, I toss a piece of naan on a baking tray, pour TJ's pizza sauce on, sprinkle some mozzarella cheese on top and bake, [/b]while munching on raw veggies. So yeah, it's cheaper at home for those two meals. Now there are some meals I can't make at home - I'm not that good a cook, have a very tiny, poorly-laid out kitchen, and don't enjoy it. So in those cases, ordering in or going out makes sense.[/quote] Ooof no wonder Americans eat so poorly [/quote]
