I think everyone else has covered the justifiable (and rare) reasons to use Uber Eats, Doordash etc
(drunk, hungover/sick/infirm, grieving, postpartum/tired, working intensely and don't have time to cook/leave)

This compulsory buying of fast food goyslop is bizarre to me - there are bulk food delivery services all over the West.
There is no reason to eat take out everyday or multiple times a day.

Even if you ignore all the ones like "Hello Fresh" that require you to prepare and cook the meals yourself, there are delivery services that provide ready to reheat foods (with portion controls/portioned macros) to put in the freezer.
A whole months supply is cheaper than 2-4 delivery app meals - the added fees in these apps alone can be $10 an order or more.
There's endless varieties to pick from too: the protein heavy/gym bro ones, dieting/calorie restricted ones, old people ones, bulk family style ones etc etc.
I am not getting how takeaway > frozen meals. They've come a long way from "sodium heavy gruel".

Using a microwave or an oven to reheat food isn't impossible. If it is, then you need to go into assisted living or have a carer look after you.
These people are just gluttons.

there's this adam libby guy who is dependant on care because his downsyndrome gives him such a high degree of disability that he can't speak well but he still does basic food prep with his family on youtube.
 
I have PTSD from when my dad yelled at me once, I am now physically unable to take two slices of bread and put some kind of filling in the middle
 
man that tw*tter user thinks people that are so disabled that they need a caretaker that feeds them are dependant on fastfood delivery
 
I'm guilty of this. A couple of years ago spent over 9000 on goyslop. Now I just walk to little caesars

Even people in assisted living houses aren't always too retarded to comprehend pressing buttons on a microwave. My demented retarded cousin can fry eggs with supervision. I hate when these lazy gluttons try hiding behind disabled people. A retard with dementia can fry an egg. I repeat: a demented retard can fry an egg.

"Histamines in frozen food..."

Most restaurant food arrived at the establishment frozen. If you think chain restaurants like Chillis makes anything fresh then you're delusional.

Too disabled to follow the directions on a box of frozen spaghetti, but can read a menu on a screen and track the delivery driver.
 
Someone claiming they need restaurant delivery services because they are disabled is 90% BS. We've gotten along just fine without Ubereats or doordash for decades with heaps of disabled people. The people who truly cannot go out and have to have food hand delivered completely prepared to them are a small minority of those claiming to be disabled and there are tons of different ways to accommodate them. If you can whine on twitter all day you have the capacity to make an arrangement that isn't as extravagant as delivered completely prepared meals 3 times a day every day.
 
These people are honestly just fucking pathetic. I have a fat coworker who bitches about having to pull 60-hour workweeks because she can’t keep up on her rent and yet for every single shift she ordered food delivery for lunch. I bet she’s spending hundreds of dollars alone on this shit. I wish DoorDash and their ilk never conceptualized outside of Silicon Valley.
 
I'm just gonna leave this here:

Christ on a bike. We hit the emergency meeting button because I did the math and deduced we were spending $1,500 a year on family pizza night, and so we decided to scale it back to every other week.

These people aren't just irresponsible, they are disconnected from even the concept of financial responsibility.
 
If your delivery guy isn’t employed by the restaurant you ordered from, then you wasted your money (and he probably stole some of your food).
 
I just saw a news story where a guy in a motorized wheelchair was seen dumping a dead woman's body on the streets and here we have a bunch of lazy shits making excuses about overspending on foods. Don't let your disabilities get in the way of achieving your dreams!
 
The food delivery nonsense is endemic among people my age, probably because we grew up in the midst of COVID and paying out the arse for some sweaty Indian in a Hyundai Santa Fe to deliver your stuff is the way we've done things ever since we were old enough to buy our own food. That doesn't excuse the fact that I've literally gone to these people's houses and cooked them dinner and they STILL feel the need to Uber something from the McDonalds down the street a couple hours later -- I guess they have fungal spores in their brain commanding them to waste money on frivolous slop or something?? It's really bizarre. Even if you're piss drunk you can make an omelette or heat up a microwave meal.

It's also a total pain if you work a wagie fast food job and have to manage three different kinds of delivery while also serving in-person customers. Screw you, "doordash customer #1467586", if you want quadruple cheese on your Greasy Lard Surprise(™) you should have to come over and look me in the eye like a MAN. The only upside to this whole mess is that I get to play "Guess How Fat This Person Is Based On The Contents Of Their Online Order" with my associates.
