If there's one good thing coming from this pandemic, it's that people are realizing that cooking the dishes they order in restaurants is generally easy, delicious, much less expensive, and can be rewarding. I love good restaurants too, but for me they're something to look forward to for a night out, not a way of feeding my family. It seems, to me at least, that there is a generation or two that see Uber Eats, et al, as their personal chef rather than learning to shop and cook for themselves.

I'm not saying people should forego restaurants, even the fast food variety, just that the balance between cooking and going out was a little off before this.
