If you're poor and you use DoorDash you probably deserve to be poor, amirite?
by Relative_Pangolin4 weeks ago
I agree, grocery delivery I understand, cheaper than getting a sitter or paying for an Uber for some folks. Doordash when you are not flush with expendable income is a stupid waste of money. Even if you are comfortable it is a pretty pricey treat that I cannot justify outside of being trapped with no food or a place to store groceries.
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
Door dash only makes sense when you are Drunk Drunk Sick because you drank too much. Okay maybe if you really need chicken soup.... And forgot to keep 4 cans of it and ginger ale for emergencies when you are sick. Door dash cheaper than a DUI... Or getting shot by the neighbor for raiding the wrong fridge which was more of a pot issue...

by AdventurousFig84924 weeks ago
I would not use doordash even if it was cheaper. I want the food as fresh as possible otherwise the whole point of eating out dissapears for me which is tasty different food than what I can make myself. For the most part also enjoy the anticipation of going to the restaurant etc to pick it up so do not mind a little bit of extra "work" which I guess would otherwise be why many prefer to get it delivered.
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
It really only makes sense when you don't have a car, or you are too drunk and/or too stoned to drive.

I use DoorDash to get food from downtown where it's like 8 miles away cos I can easily afford it and the restaurants around me suck. I'm not about to drive 16 miles to get some good food lol. To a lot of people that's wasteful but I can easily afford it so idrc. A lot of good restaurants are now on DoorDash or Grubhub and the like and getting high quality restaurant food has never been easier. I also cook, but it's a hassle to make some stuff like tonkotsu broth so I'd rather just order.

Do you use a lot of convenience apps like this? I didn't grow up with them so I just can't buy into using them.

Oh man, where do I even start with this? First off, saying poor folks can't afford Uber is like saying fish can't swim. Have you heard of public transport? Walking? People find a way. And yeah, some might be grinding with two jobs, but that doesn't mean they're living in a drive-thru. Plenty of people hustle hard and still find time to cook. And don't even get me started on the whole "15-minute food prep" thing. Have you ever heard of meal prep? Batch cooking? You can whip up a week's worth of meals in less time than it takes for your Uber Eats to arrive. So, sorry to burst your bubble, but your argument is about as solid as a soggy taco.

I don't care how many hours you work in a day, you have time to prepare meals instead of spedning minimum 20 dollars twice a day
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
If someone makes $15 an hour and they think it's worth working an extra hour and spending it on food, it's their choice. And this choice isn't the reason they are struggling financially. Also, the lack of empathy and high horse vibes is astonishing. After standing for 15 hours and working, expecting people to stand more and prep food is so silly. Focus on the cause of the issue, not the symptom.
by Electrical-Egg4 weeks ago
You will be poor and unhealthy if you live this way. Meal prep if you must but learning to cook will save you so much money. I spent 80$ at the grocery story this week and got tons of fruit for smoothies (ninja is a cheap and fast way to make meals), and dinner foods like while chicken, pork loin, and ground turkey. I also got potatos and a big box of salad. I even splurged for some asparagus. I didn't even list everything I got and it was way more than enough to feed my wife and I for the entire week. If you can get a jug of whey protein and some peanut butter you can do amazing things with the ninja and some fruit.
by Victoradams4 weeks ago
Yeah they would definitely be healthy, we are just talking about money here. Outside food is always less nutritious than home cooked food.
by Electrical-Egg4 weeks ago
I mean it could be tho. Like let's say this person orders delivery once a day & its $15 (literally an hour of their wage). Over the week, that's $105. In a month, it's $420. In a year, it's $5,040. That's a lot of money & could be going to bills, debt, savings, etc. Obvs being poor doesn't mean you can never enjoy a treat, but if you're "treating" yourself everyday by spending 3x what's necessary on one meal, it's not a good financial decision.

if you live anywhere near civilisation, you don't need a car to get food. Most people can walk or cycle to a grocery store.
by Conscious_Singer79554 weeks ago
Ofcourse it's cheaper, no one is arguing over that. But blaming poor people for being poor for spending a little more than needed on food is very hateful and unempathetic.
by Electrical-Egg4 weeks ago
It's not "a little more" and it's completely disingenuous to claim it is. Takeaway costs £10 to £15. A quick home cooked, nutritious meal will cost less than £2.

by Anonymous4 weeks ago
You can go the middle road and purchase processed sauces, like gochujang. You can make really nice dishes very quickly with whole foods by using processed sauces or spice mixes etc. The processed sauces are usually pretty cheap since you're only using like one or two tbsps per meal. It's only when you go from processed sauces to processed everything that it becomes much more expensive.

Start cooking for two days. Me and my gf are doing pretty well financially and could afford to eat out most of the time, but we still have the poor habits from before.

by Leonardorobel4 weeks ago
I make a rule for myself. If I go to the grocery store, I get enough for 3-4 meals. I look at the sales and plan easy meals from that. Seems trivial, but this forces me to plan ahead and saves big money over takeout.
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
Ima get grocery delivered right now actually even though it's midnight lol. I'll take this into consideration
by Leonardorobel4 weeks ago
That's a very, very popular opinion. My unpopular opinion is if you're poor you shouldn't spend more than $100/month/person on food... because that's my grocery spend and I'm not trying that hard (I won't stoop to walmart and don't bulk buy and I'm not much of a cook) so I know it's possible to spend less. But I'm always seeing people who go hungry at the end of the month or turn to food banks who are spending 3-5x as much on their food and blaming inflation for their helplessness, even as my spend has gone down during inflation (convenience foods are no longer cheap enough to tempt me so I've saved more). Can't help rolling my eyes at them, unless they have special doctor-prescribed dietary needs.
by Janis684 weeks ago
Have you considered cost of living might be different for people who lives places you don't?
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
I used to consider that, but it has yet to turn out to be the issue anytime I've been able to dig further into it. I live in California which is where the most people complain about how expensive things are, and in a semi-rural foothills town with relatively little competition and lacking some of the cheaper stores, and my diet doesn't include much in the way of locally-grown fresh foods. The only thing I drink is water (from the tap), my meats are basically chicken and canned tuna unless there's a real good sale on something else, I eat a lot of pasta, I make cookies myself, I pay attention to the calories per dollar value by glancing at labels and doing the mental math. I never use a list so I stay flexible about getting what's cheap this week as my variety. And I only shop the discounted stuff when I go to Raley's, filling in the rest at Target.

$250-$300 will get you about a weeks worth of food if you live in Seattle.
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
That's insane. For four people? I just made a shopping cart at for pickup online at a grocery store in Seattle. I was able to get 3lb chicken breast, 1lb ny strip, bacon, a package of brauts, 5lb chicken drum sticks, 2lb brussel sprouts, 2lb asparagus, 1lb spring salad mix, a pineapple, strawberries, bananas, blueberry's, 10lb of potatoes, 4 sweet potatoes for $100. It wasn't Whole Foods, but I think you can do better than $250-300.
by Victoradams4 weeks ago
While Seattle is a little more expensive than Sacramento, I guarantee you that groceries do not cost 12x more in Seattle than they do in Sacramento (I'm in a smaller town in the greater Sacramento region, Sac is actually cheaper than here). So you're exactly who I'm talking about, people who think they have to spend an order of magnitude more than they actually have to spend. I mean, it's perfectly fine if you want to spend 12x more because you like convenience / particular foods / alcohol / particular stores / inflexible menu planning and you can afford to budget that -- but be aware that it's a choice you're making.

It's probably a difference because I'm not American, but plenty of people don't own a car here, and they still get groceries themselves. We walk, bike or take public transport.

Everyone ends up with a disability at some point, unless they die first, it's part of aging, and most disabilities aren't visible at a glance.

by Katlynn804 weeks ago
This is "peasants deserve gruel" with one extra step of justification.
by creolaernser4 weeks ago
It's more like peasants shouldn't overspend for gruel when they can eat fresh food for cheap. A whole chicken, a bag of potatoes and a bag of carrots is about $12 anywhere in America. It is also enough to feed a family of four. FWIW it's very easy to throw salt and pepper on a chicken and put it in the oven. People really don't like to cook I think.

by Suspicious-Bid4 weeks ago
As someone who has just gotten out of debt after being stuck at -$3000 for years because… Covid purchases, absolutely. But there's nuance to most takes like this. A lot of people who can't get good paying jobs also struggle to cook. Whether it be a physical disability, depression, or even just having no time to cook because you're working two jobs But… as someone who ate microwaved naan with margarine and raspberry jam this morning, I still agree that you can eat for ridiculously cheap. It's hard to not fall for the false sense of savings when you're offered a 40% off coupon though. Like I'd say they're less irresponsible/lazy and more just… easily manipulated
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
The thing about that makes me the most upset is that it's the poor exploiting the poor.

Look at figure 5 here. The rich (over $200k) use doordash, because if you earn that much it's a good decision to trade money for time. And the poor (under $25k) use doordash because they don't make good decisions. People in between use it less.

I guess I just love living in the lap of luxury lol.
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
Yep to all this! The difference in one's stress level and attitude when you become fiscally responsible and finally lift yourself to a point where you're not living paycheck to paycheck is HUGE. It was for me, anyway. The next tier is basically being able to buy things (within reason) without stressing about it. Weezer is doing a 30 year anniversary tour for the Blue Album?

Ngl I agree lol growing up my family literally never ordered delivery, my parents always picked stuff up. After going to college / the emergence of delivery apps, I have only used them when I have an existing gift card / voucher so I don't actually have to pay more than a couple dollars or at a party if multiple people are already ordering. The fees are crazy and so not worth it, especially when you can often very easily pick up food yourself or make it at home.

The corporate overlords are successfully able to convince the people that the poors are poor due to their own faults and not because of inflation, lack of increase of minimum wage, housing crisis, uncontrolled rent, etc
by Electrical-Egg4 weeks ago
I said the people who are able to drive. People without a car cannot drive. If you know that you are poor, and it's likely causing some mental issues/energy problems, why would you then spend more money ordering food, contributing to your poverty, and worsen your mental health issues? In the unlikely scenario that all 5 children are below the age of 16 and they received no life insurance from the death of the spouse, if she doesn't have time to go and drive to get takeout, how does she have time to be home to eat the takeout in the first place? And if she's ordering for her kids, why not just buy frozen food and save much, much more money than takeout? I'm not saying inflation, housing, rent, etc, aren't issues, but unnecessary expenses are also part of what causes poverty, and if you can cut down on them (which 99% of people can), you should.

When you're in the hole and you can't make ends meet, you end up being forced to make compromises. For some, it's door dash because they get home late from a long work shift and they don't have time to cook for their kids. Sometimes that's what it comes down to.

This is a dumb argument. I HIGHLY doubt that the OP is referring to once a quarter emergencies (although I have NEVER used door dash, hell I can't even bare to pay for pizza delivery). I was by no means poor growing up, but I can always do math on cost per mile, and if it's cheaper for me to drive, then I drive because if it takes me an hour to make enough to pay someone what would take me 10 minutes to do myself, guess what I'm doing?

Exactly! Poor people shouldn't enjoy anything in life. They should just make the budget conscious decision every day of their lives and be happy about it. They don't deserve anything above the bare minimum because their lives are the bare minimum unless they will their way out of poverty which is so easy if you just grind from one underpaid job to the next slightly less underpaid job.

by viviane594 weeks ago
I get what you're saying, but to genuinely engage with your opinion, if you have DashPass ($10 a month) then getting it delivered doesn't cost more than picking it up, other than a tip. And you can eat cheap on Doordash. I ordered a combo large burrito and a small burrito to my door for a grand total of $15 yesterday from a local Mexican place. Lunch and dinner. I got 12 wings and mac & cheese delivered for under $15 from Popeyes a couple days before that. That was my main meal for the day You're right that it's easy to make your own food but, unless you're making an effort to cook the cheapest things possible, the sad fact is that cooking at home isn't much different price-wise than ordering food anymore. Like, spaghetti, meatballs and pasta sauce is setting me back $15 as well.
by Mindless_Witness39564 weeks ago
That's like $15 dollars to cook enough spaghetti for multiple people. Dashpass or not the prices on food delivery apps are inflated compared to what they are on the actual menu.
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
True, but the amount of money I make working for an extra hour more than covers the amount of money I make to order food to eat for the day.
by Mindless_Witness39564 weeks ago
So work an extra hour instead of taking 10 minutes to drive, sound math
by Anonymous4 weeks ago
How much spaghetti, how many meals worth, are you getting for $15? If you tell me that you eat one (dry) pound of pasta, one jar of Ragu, and a pound of meatballs in one meal, you're either an NFL offensive lineman or enormously fat, such that one entree from DoorDash wouldn't be enough anyway. $15 of spaghetti and meatballs is multiple meals for normal people.
by Relative_Pangolin4 weeks ago
Or 1 meal for 3 people.
by Plus_Reflection4 weeks ago
Right, exactly. How much is three meals from doordash?
by Relative_Pangolin4 weeks ago
About $5 and you don't have to spend the time cooking or cleaning up. My time is worth that alone.

You can get three meals for $5? Please screenshot such an order, because I'm skeptical.
