There have been several times recently when I realized I was being drawn by the siren's call of fast food - honestly, so similar to addiction cravings - but when I suppressed my emotional response and analyzed it, it was obvious that the labor & time involved with me prepping my own food (or having it ready in advance) was far less stressful than the idea of wrestling with traffic, waiting in a drive thru and dealing with all the other potential negative variables which wouldn't exist if I simply cut that whole loop out. My emotions were screaming at me that someone else making my food hot and ready was the far better option, but when I really looked closer this was a lie. Sometimes it's true, for sure, but not usually.
