My boyfriend (20) and I (18) have been living together for 2 years in an urban apartment. For us, it usually goes like this:

  1. Delivery
  2. Eating out
  3. Cooking at home

We visit our parents (and they visit us) often, and they give us lots of home-cooked food. We mostly cook at home just for fun.

I’m curious what it’s like for other people, especially in different age groups or family setups!

    Cook at home is the default; even the lunches our kids eat at school are packed from home.

    We never get delivery; we get takeout sometimes when it’s getting late and we’re tired, but usually that’s just the mains and one of us still makes the starch and the veg sides at home while the other goes to get the takeout.

    Eating out is pretty much only special occasions and when company is visiting town.

    Couple with kids, very small SFH in Chicago but it was the same when we lived in an apartment. If anything we are at home more, because taking young kids to a restaurant is risky at best.
