The dad in our family is famous for finishing random leftovers for lunch, so nothing gets wasted.

Oh my gosh, we spent so much time at Wendy's and IHOP in our teens.

We sure did! Back in the 80s and 90s it was McDonalds Fries and 7-11 Slurpees! Wendy's chili and frosties. Cheap, snack foods were popular.
+1 and I had an afterschool job so I rarely ate at home anyway. Sometimes we'd go out after work too.
