I open the app to try to find what I want to eat, then look at the prices and decide to drive there myself and get the food which saves $10-$20.

And 3/4 of the time, the price and hassle to drive drives me to cook at home.

If I'm looking at the delivery app I've already decided I don't have the energy to cook haha

and that's why you keep dry noodles and stock cubes at home, if i can't be arsed to cook i toss a square of noodles and one or two stock cubes in a pot with some water, get it boiling, turn off the plate and ignore it for 5 minutes, and bam food.

then you just rinse out the pot and put it back in the cupboard

I have adhd and I will tell you that seems way too hard when I'm lacking executive function. Way too many steps. Much easier is either to grab something pre-made like an uncrustable or something for the air fryer that is literally just put in and press button. Or the ramen in a cup I can just add hot water to from my water fountain that can just give me hot water I don't need to boil.

you can add hot water to the pot as well, hell make it directly in a bowl if you wish, i just explained how i do it and that it's significantly more convenient than having to wait for food delivery, while also being hilariously cheaper.
