I have children and don't do delivery apps either. Its way more expensive per meal, generates way more trash, and in the end sitting hot and steamy in the packaging for 10+ minutes makes the food worse than if I had cooked it myself or we went out to eat it. If anything, having kids is a reason to not do delivery apps. Having kids is expensive enough I don't need to spend an extra $10 a meal just to have someone bring it to me. If we're talking convenience, its pretty much the same level of effort as throwing frozen foods in the air fryer or in the steaming tray of the rice cooker and coming back in like 10 minutes. Or reheat a meal-prepped food. Or cook one of the several quick recipes of things we usually have on hand. Or having fun slicing soft fruits and vegetables with plastic knives with the kids. Most of the time that we do order takeout its because one or both of us are already out and about and will just swing by some restaurant on the way home. Or we'll pick up food to go and stop by the park on the way home and have a picnic. So many options that are all massively better than ordering delivery foods from an app.
