What do you normally gravitate towards as far as evening meals are concerned? Do you cook on a regular basis or order takeouts more nights than not?

I haven't had a take away since the beginning of this pandemic. Never had loads anyway. I am big fake away fan. Its cheaper and healthier and I like cooking.
Only thing I miss is a takeaway pizza

We Uber eats most nights. Living in London and having the disposable income we have it’s become a nightly habit.

Rarely have takeaways.
Prefer to cook my own meals or have home cooked by others. Before the pandemic, I did however love going out for meals, with family and/ or friends. |

Since lockdown, we have slipped into a huge takeaway habit that needs sorted really. Have maybe 50/50 for late meals. Always something from the fridge or whatever for lunch though.
The takeaway habit is even worse when you consider this is for kids too really. The motivation to do...anything is just gone though. Was dealing fine, until maybe about November when it stated to feel relentless and..totally joyless, and started hitting the kids harder too I think :/ |

I like cooking and I prefer my own cooking, however I will admit that several nights a week I just don't have the energy so we end up ordering in.
I cook more when I have a good TV series that I'm binging as then I can just hide in the kitchen watching telly, but legitimately because I'm also cooking . |

Rarely get take-away's.
You don't know who's making your food, they could spit in it or poison it. Then there's the delivery person, they could spit in it too, you'd never know. I hope this has put you off your next take-away. I'm here to help. |

Have a takeaway maybe once a fortnight. Most meals I make are from frozen but it'll be meat to defrost, more than often. Out of 7 nights a week I probably cook on 5 of them and bung something in the oven from the freezer for the other 2 (a pizza, or southern fried chicken, or fish, etc)

...home cooked but also frozen because I’ll cook and freeze etc ...preparing a meal each day is my new social life so I’d hate not having that to do...and I’m discovering the joys of chopping vegetables, it’s such a therapeutic thing and they’re so colourful...as a family, we’re all new vegetable only eaters so we all sometimes ‘cook together’ as well in trying new recipes.../...yeah sad but there we go....

Mostly cook in the week with takeout(s) on the weekend but sometimes if we're in the mood we'll order something in the week too.
Saturday is chippy night off The Chip Van usually! |

We have homemade / cooked meals through the week and quite often a takeaway on a Saturday
We were always out for lunches or dinners on a weekend but covid put a stop to that Last edited by Josy; 10-02-2021 at 06:42 AM. |

Hubby cooks all the meals now.
His only takeaway is fish and chips. I am quite partial to takeaways of any description but limit it to a few times a year. |

Have also, after saying always have lunch from fridge..ordered a bloody subway 40 quid for sandwiches man...its mental really. I dread to think what we have spent on takeaways recently..but what the hell else is there to buy...have overdone amazon, to the point where I got so paranoid the neighbours would be yapping on as we had deliveries everyday. Weirdly, am not usually so...'omg I have to spend money!' either, thats a new-ish thing. Lockdown is really messing with me. I appear to be the only one I know who has lost weight during this too..its really weird. Eating LOADS of crap, yet have lost 2 stone and weigh the least I have in like..15 years now |

A takeaway is lovely when you haven't had it in a while as a treat especially Chinese .
But overall I have a mixture of home cooked and frozen usually . Last edited by GoldHeart; 10-02-2021 at 12:50 PM. |
