This is how I think about my food when I want to eat out. Most meals are now $10+, give or take, and I start to think, "that's one month of YouTube Premium, is it really worth it to eat this?". A "subscription" of eating out often starts adding up real quick compared to my own cooking.
- opportune 3y agoI think that speaks more to the low price of YT premium than it does the high price of food. In general a lot of digital content (also most streaming services, and many video games) has amazingly good cost per time-entertained. And that food is still pretty cheap compared to a Broadway play or concert

- occamsrazorwit 3y agoI'm not sure about that last part. A meal that lasts an hour is on the long side while a concert is several hours long. In my area (San Francisco) and experience, it's like $20 for a dinner or $50 for a concert. FWIW, I also operate on the experential-model, and I'm going to remember a concert far more than 3-4 random dinners.
