How often do you get fast food/takeout/go out to eat a WEEK?

Question

Husband and I have found ourselves the past few months getting food from outside of the house a lot (fast food, delivery, etc.) sometimes 4-5 times a week 😅. I love to cook and I hate that we’re wasting so much money. How many times do you get “outside” food a week? I want to try to cut back to once a week, then eventually twice a month. Any tips appreciated!

Answer

A couple times a year. We very rarely get outside food unless we're out of town

Answer

Maybe once every two months?  
Fast food is mostly gross to me (although I get the occasional craving, don't get me wrong) and I have little desire to go sit around at a restaurant and wait for someone else to make something I could make at home, for cheaper, and know what all is in it.

Answer

Cook larger quantities that can be frozen and used when you don't have the time and energy to cook. 
When I knew I was going to have my arm immobilized for a month, I had two slow cookers going both days of every weekend for a couple of months. I had enough soups and stews to last for about 5 months after my surgery. Had I not done that, I would've been living on microwaved hot dogs all that time. After I could take off the sling, it tooks months of therapy to actually gain use of my arm back. So I had made food that didn't require having to use a knife to eat. But you can make lots of things besides soups and stews that freeze easily for future meals.

Answer

We normally have something on a Thursday/ Friday night and then on a Saturday afternoon.

Answer

We have a date night once a week where we go out to eat. Since COVID has still shut down the restaurants in our town though, we order take out once a week!

Answer

We get takeout on Friday night and Saturday night.  We cook at home the rest of the week

Answer

We do maybe 1-2x a month. I see the take out bill and imagine the grocery i couldve gotten😎 I try to make “new” dishes or things we would eat take out. We recently had pf changes lettuce wraps and they were so good. Im gonna do a copy cat! I try to do nee things at home.

Answer

New baby so we’re finding ourselves getting to go 3-4 times a week

Answer

About once a month or once every other month, usually when l’m out for the whole day running errands. If l eat out more than that in a month, it’s for a family or friend gathering.

Answer

We've gotten a bit out of control lol atm we eat out probaby 1-4 times a week depending if were out and about at supper time or if my husband comes home late its easier for him to eat on the road so ill take my daughter out that night too. Id say definitely at least once a week.
