Okay that's an explanation with some logic in it, but like unless they have your order ready when you drive into the parking lot, there's several dishes I could cook as fast as it takes for you to go pick up a brown bag.

Granted time is a luxury I find myself having too much of often so maybe I'm like one of those super rich guys who doesn't understand the cost of a milk carton.

But nah, I don't think I am here to be honest.

If you said "doesn't have the energy to cook" I'd get it but time/energy, eh pretty interchangeable.

It isn't faster but what it is, is more convenient and that I can see.

Sure. When you've got a stocked fridge and a clean kitchen and a working knowledge of home economics, its can work.

If you said “doesn’t have the energy to cook” I’d get it but time/energy, eh pretty interchangeable.

There's also the simple addictive quality of high salt, high sugar, high fat foods made to order.
