I feel lots of people realize they don’t need anymore to order. When do you need to order something? It’s either you have a party , people are gathering or you rushing back home from work and don’t have time for cooking. Non of this conditions exists anymore. I realize that plastic wrapped food from local restaurant is not as good as I can cook myself. I never cooked a lot before. But this time , you have time for yourself .dont get me wrong I want to help those people , but helping is not ruled by communists rules. Me and many of my friends just don’t want to order home even as much as before lockdown. It’s not about money it’s about time for yourself :) and those money I saved I usually donate.

My wife and I have been cooking at home, but last week we both had a busy, long day, and we were exhausted and wanted a good meal. So, for us, the reason we would have ordered takeout before is the same reason we ordered takeout that day.

We've been ordering a delivery every Friday from a different local restaurant every week. It's something to look forward to, but we also want to support the local places that we used to be able to go to until we're through this. If everyone stopped ordering and just cooked at home, there would be no restaurants that survive this at all. And let's face it, small local food shops have the same problem as restaurants - they're too small to have their own websites for ordering. So everyone is ordering groceries from the big chain supermarkets - or Amazon Fresh. All of that money is going straight to giant corporations instead of local businesses. This is a good opportunity for some small producers to keep going. We ordered from one place I saw on insta that had a stall in a food market hall which is closed, and now they're doing delivery orders from their flat. There's no way this person could organise relationships with drivers and payment processors all on their own without using a platform.
