There are a lot of us tech yuppies that either can’t cook or won’t cook. We will continue to order in all our meals.
Of course that depends on the variety remaining. It may not. It’s been 3 weeks and I’m already starting to tire of my local options.
Maybe I might end up learning to cook after all...
- SamPatt 7y agoIt's cheaper and better for you, and you can cook for your own preferences once you understand the basics. It's a great time to learn!

- anthonypasq 7y agoI mean, not really, unless you are comparing to McDonald's.
- lotsofpulp 7y agoEven on the coasts, most restaurants focus on salt, sugar, and oil. I find there’s often just no spice used (not just heat). Also, due to the low margins of the restaurant business, I assume they’re using subpar ingredients.
- tropo 7y agoMcDonald's was hard to beat back when they had fried pies. They dropped that menu item though, so now we can beat them.
- BenjiWiebe 7y agoIf you like the technical aspects of "tech", you could learn to love the technical aspects of cooking. You can treat cooking as a chore, an art, or a science. Your choice!
- mcv 7y agoEven if you love cooking as an art, it can still be a chore sometimes. It's hard to deliver art when tired, picky children are screaming.
- madcaptenor 7y agoJust like it's hard to deliver good code when tired, picky managers are screaming.

- hkmurakami 7y agoI don't get why you're being down voted for this. Frankly you'd be helping out your local restaurants that are trying to minimize their red ink.
- bryanrasmussen 7y agoregarding all the other suggestions to learn, it might also be a really good time to start saving some money.
