why do people even eat out? 1

i mean i understand going to a real restaurant and getting chef prepared meals with family/dates, etc.
but why the hell do people go shitty places like fast food, chipotle, etc.?
just make your own damn lunch
Simplify your diet. Quit eating meat, or just like, bake some fish in the oven. thats what I do. Eat a salad, eat some cereal, eat a banana, bam, make a smoothie. bam. done. very few dishes, very little prep, it's easy, it's cheap, it's healthy. I just don't see the point in wasting time and energy going out to eat just to satisfy a craving for a certain kind of food or whatever. eating is just something you have to do to get the necessary nutrients you need to live. just be efficient about it and get on with your life.
Oh but Good food and sex are the two best things in life brooo.
Sure, eat good food, SOMETIMES. You don't have to stuff your face with McDonalds and Chipotle every day. That would be sort of analogous to fucking a prostitute every day, or something equally sexually gross.

often timing is the issue, hard to prep food if you don't have a place to safely store it and lunch hours are often 30 minutes so no wiggle room for traffic ect.
i agree i hate eating shit food because you need fuel and it is the only thing to fit in the time frame. also many many people are so disconnected from food they can't prepare it let alone grow it or understand where it comes from.

You seem like the type of person that got rid of their TV so you can tell people "I don't even own a TV" when they're talking about a show they like.

Fast food tastes good I had Mcdonalds yesterday and Wendy's a couple days ago. I am one of those skinny dudes that eats a ton of fast food.

eh i pretty much only watch sports, once in awhile i will watch a movie or an anime but that is on the computer. i dislike commercials and most mass broadcasting.
tv is just so fucking dumb most of the time, i don't understand how people get attached to it.
back to food, i live in a city where most of the big chain food places are not allowed so we have some unique smaller places but whats up with people wanting the same menu everywhere? wouldn't you think there would be a little local variance on what they offer? also the cost of fast food only seems to be like 2 to 4 dollars less from a real sit down meal, convenience costs a lot.

FUCK THAT. Every dinner must be at least 40-50% meat. There is almost nothing at all that is "good" when it's less than 40% meat. Vegetable is just filler. The shit worth actually eating is the meat. One of my most ideal meals is Brisket (served with bread, pickles and onions) ribs, sausage and either ranch style beans or potato salad. Yes, all together.
As for fast food, my last job basically necessitated it. I need something substantial to keep me going and it has to be quick. I'm not eating fucking sandwiches or salad for lunch at work. I need real goddamned food. By the time lunch time rolls around I'm already dealing with jitteriness, dizziness and nausea.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

People that eat fastfood everyday are distgusting. I use to work with a guy who would come with mcdonalds every single fucking day to work, so gross.
I'm down to do the better/classier fast food like chipotle/inn n out/five guys everyonce in awhile when youre pressed for time, or lazy, or driving, or whatever, but I definitely don't get people that eat it all the time.
I think fast food is an easy cop out for moms with large familes. Buy all the kids a happy meal and call it a night. Fast food can be cheap too. $5 hot and ready pizza comes to mind.

Nor is it the only thing to watch out for. I'm a 6'1 male who could never break 150 pounds despite eating tons of "fattening" junk. Well the adipose tissue never showed... but the metabolic problems... fucking christ knows how much plaque is in my arteries right now. Lp(a) markers were almost 3x the high risk range last time i checked and I'm 23 years old. Then the autoimmunity... I like drugs and I like junk, but I have to encourage people to take care of themselves on the day to day after all this. Nothing sucks as hard as watching your body crumble

You can get decent deals at some places. The old school smash burger chain Steak 'n Shake has several burger+fry meals for $4. Last night I got a $4 triple and fries, $4 double with cheese and fries, and used a coupon (they send out a ton) for a free iced tea/drink. So I got about a pound of meat and equivalent of a ~12oz large fry for $8.56 in 3 minutes. Could be cheaper at home, but a few bucks for speed+convenience is worth it to me occasionally.

I'm about the same height and stayed around 160 through my late teens and 20s, but since turning 30 a few years ago I gradually put on about 30 lbs, mostly in the gut area. Definitely wasn't due to any dietary changes but I am getting less exercise since I got a car.

If you think you're getting out of it just because you're not fat you're mistaken. Being skinny can be a sign of metabolic dysfunction as well.

I stopped at a gas station last night in the middle of nowhere and they had "EBT eligible" tags all down the snack aisle, frozen foods, and ice cream. I may as well have taken my wallet out of my purse and emptied it in the parking lot for the junkies. Tax dollar allocation lol.

All the way up until 24 i could eat anything i wanted all day and did, like used gross people out how much i ate, and i could never break 160. Was a lazy fuck too, no exercise at all.
Now im 25 and i struggle to stay under 195 with healthy diet change, eat like half as much as i used to, and swim/weights every day. Getting older is a bitch
On topic though, i do not understand eating out at restaurants, let alone fast food. Ive cooked all my life. Cooking is one of the very few things i enjoy. very rarely does it take me more then 20 mins to prep and cook an awesome meal, its better then what any so called "chef" would cook me, and costs half as much
Now fast food i can not wrap my head around whatsoever. I think i ate fast food like 3 times as a teenager and only after smoking so much pot that trying to operate the stove and pans was just not an option. Other day i went through a mc d's drive through for a drink and i over hear the other persons order being like 45$ and i 'd so hard.
Seriously 45$ at fast food? I could cook a family of 3 two days worth of awesome food for that much money

The problem AGAIN is you guys are thinking about meals in ways that are way too complicated. just throw a bunch of fuckin vegetables and fruits and whey protein in a blender and drink that this and call it a meal, who gives a fuck? takes like 5 minutes which is about as long as it takes to sit in a drive thru. and you can take that shit with you, any workplace has a fridge. y'all are just addicted to shit that tastes good and you dont wanna admit it.

if you dont wanna drink your meal, just throw the same veggies in a tupperware. if you insist on eating meat, throw some deli meat on top. shit guys it cant really get easier I do this every day and it takes like 5 minutes. For dinner I pop a pre-made salmon dish from HEB in the oven and eat it with some veggie chips and hot sauce. takes virtually no effort whatsoever

You can also be skinny as hell and still have clogged arteries, risk of heart disease, and many other bad things. Not to mention the fact that he abused tons of meth (he says, don't know if it's actually true because he seems to spew a lot of nonsense) so his heart probably isn't the healthiest anyways.

That sounds shitty I'd rather pay for someone to prep me a nice meal. It's more convenient, and tastes a lot better than a slop milkshake.

No I actually did abuse the shit out of meth.
I actually think meth wasn't even that bad for me long term honestly. My brain seems completely normal and even better then normal with my ADD meds and I have done physical exams and am fine.
It is just getting back to where I was that is mostly tough but I am in college and doing very well.
And cooking is actually tough with ADD. It requires reading the ingredients if you are learning a recipe, not getting distracted and watching t.v. and takes some focus if you are not good at it.
Without my meds I could hardly cook anything at all, now I am alright but still working on it.

I'm sorry. In the future I'll strive to be a better person, blend up a bunch of shit and make a foul tasting drink out of it. You're absolutely right. Food should not taste good and we've become addicts to flavor. We need to strive to rid ourselves of this damnable and insidious addiction.

I already stated that it is okay to go out to a restaurant with chef prepared meals and so forth. This is only about wasting your money on bullshit like McDonalds and Chipotle. McDonalds and Chipotle does not compare to going to a concert or having sex or having friends, on your analogy. It just a complete false analogy.
Eating is about getting the right nutrients to sustain a healthy lifestyle. Occasionally eating something that tastes great is awesome. Feeling the need to constantly satisfy a craving for yummy food is something else entirely, it is an addiction to tasty food. Once you stop eating food like that, after a month or two, you don't crave food like that anymore at all, and you will see what I mean.

What state are you in?
In Texas we have a lot of little Mexican "fast food restaurants". We just got a Chipotle like a year or so ago and I've eaten there once. That shit really didn't live up to the hype. The local one we always go to definitely blew it out of the water.
If you don't have places like that where you live, and the only competition is basically Taco Bell, I could definitely see how someone would like it. But compared to some of the stuff we have down here, that shit IS Taco Bell.

I'm sorry Chipotle sucks in your area. None of ours do, and get very very packed during dinner time.
I'm about as far SE as you can get, and we also have a lot of other good traditional mexican restaurants as well.

It doesn't necessarily suck, it's just not good. It doesn't live up to the hype everyone gives it. It's just bland and uninteresting flavor wise.

But I watched her. I always watch people. I know exactly what I need and have actually she took me through the grocery store. Like 40$ in sauces my first attempt might be as precise as someone that's Asian cooking Asian food but I do like that she taught me that.

right because buying into consumer culture when it comes to the convenience of eating out often necessarily makes you a less boring person. that is some grade A logic right there folks.

It isn't that hard to pick up some chicken breast, rice and beans, and some veggies for a dinner. A one-time charge on a George Foreman for 20 bucks. If you want to get fancy, buy an onion or two and pick some edibles or veggies. A bushel of produce at a farmers market is at best 20 bucks for a week of produce for a family of 4.
It all boils down to convenience. If I want halibut and lobster, I've gotta go to the store, break out a few pots/pans, spend hours on prep/cooking/cleaning. I can't go catch my own halibut or trap lobsters where I am either (convenience again). Or I can spend that extra 20 bucks to have it served to me in a nice atmosphere on a date night.
You can completely eat on the cheap and eat healthy if you want. If you are a physical laborer and get short breaks then yeah go grab a burger, I don't care. I'll only start caring when I'm paying some lardass's health insurance through my taxes.
And speaking of convenience, I went to a gas station/grocery late last night and the snack aisle was riddled with "EBT eligible" signs in English and Spanish. The ice cream cooler had them. A $7 tub of ice cream is covered by SNAP benefits? All they eat is rice and beans anyway. I don't see how I should pay for their terrible food so I can feed their obese children.
Insult to injury was Walmart this morning when shopping for some amenities. Seven people and four carts full of food loaded with snacks, junk food and unhealthy frozen meals. Their total was 5 dollars after all of them swiped their cards and we don't have sales tax.
^ That's where I draw the line.
Eat out all you want, eat all the fast food you want, but the moment you start sucking the government tit - which is by far too lax and forgiving for those people - and taking *my money* for your terrible diet as a luxury, well, fuck off and go get a job. It's not like these people are disability cases or elderly. They don't pay taxes on their under-the-table jobs with a bunch of immigrants. They can get by. There are food shelves and soup kitchens and church food/fuel vouchers.
People at farmers markets also sell canned jellies, preserves and vegetables. They're more willing to negotiate on fresh things since it's typically their "overstock" and will go bad if they don't sell it or give it away. Some grocery stores will give you free bread if you get in good with the bakers. I did cakes and decorative pastries for a spot during college. We would put expired labels on bread and leave it under the counter for homeless or struggling people.
If you can't steam vegetables or boil water for rice then just go starve on the street. Sometimes I wonder how people can wipe their own asses.

Chipotle doesn't suck but IMO it's quite over-rated.
I eat out because it's convenient. Plus there's no way I can make a sandwich at home that would be as tasty as a chipotle burrito.

Off-topic, but Aldi's Belmont and one other brand for <$3/48oz is great (and has simple ingredients). Quite a few flavors too- Moose Tracks, Neopolitan, rotating weirder ones like red velvet cake.

I agree with the point that no... you shouldnt be eating fast food everyday. But sometimes, I want a quick meal while im out that taste good when I obviously cant sit down at a restaurant by myself and wait 30 minutes or so. Fast food is good in moderation.
Are you saying you seriously have never gone out with friends and got fast food?
