Maybe this isn't proper shopping but $18.50 for four veggie burgers, buns, and danish seems like a lot

I understand what you're trying to say here. But I just wanted to add, making a vegetarian/vegan burger is not as simple as grinding up a pound of tofu and sticking it together to fry in a pan. I'm not saying you have to buy some of the "no meat" brand burgers to make a nice vegan patty but simply substituting some meat with natural unprepared tofu and expecting a great tasting result is IMHO where a lot of people get their aversion to tofu (and often derived to all meat alternatives) from. (Source 15years of vegetarian eating and cooking) The fact that ready made vegan patties exist and taste great these days is awesome for someone like me who sometimes just wants to make a stupid simple tasty burger.
Tl;dr: Tasty vegan patties aren't that simple.
I agree that people should be encouraged to cook more (I love doing it when I have time and it hits me). But simply declaring "nobody can cook anymore" and demanding people that might not have the time to prepare a home cooked meal in between their first and second job is not helping.
Of course the convenience of fast food and ready made meals is one of these classic situations where an "invention" that makes our life simpler and more convenient is a good reason why we don't need all that time we save to ourselves anymore. i.e. you don't need a lunch break when you can just microwave something up and eat it while continuing your work.
Sorry got kind of a long winded bit here. Hope it makes sense
