      As someone who ate almost all their meals at work I can sympathize. Lots of ordering food, lots of making small manageable meals on the clock. I could justify it because I was making money, and when I was home I was usually too tired to cook anything complicated. Eating every meal in your house is definitely different, and the added financial strain means getting more food for your dollar, which usually translates to more work.

      Working in a place that sold food, I would simply buy and eat there. Now I don't feel safe eating in the break room with three other jerks. I come with prepared food that I leave and eat in my car.

    This could be any of the following:

    -Rich person no longer has their servants with them

    -Middle class type not being able to order food

    -Normally works late shifts and eats at the work cafeteria for lunch&dinner

    -Satire

      Thanks, I initially thought of 1, 2 and 4 but not 3, so I won't post my snarky comment about people that constantly order food instead of cooking good homemade food with a lower carbon footprint. I will plug !food@hexbear.net, though.

      I used to work 60 to 80 hour weeks, which meant that I'd leave work just in time for all the eateries in the area to close. That basically forced me to eat shitty fast food most days since I was too wiped out to cook.

    Is this just a thing for people who eat out a lot? As someone who rarely goes out to eat, I feel like my food habits have barely changed, but maybe that’s part of being a vegan in an area that’s not vegan friendly.

      i never eat out either, and the main thing that changed is how often i shopped. I live within walking distance of several markets, so I would go short shopping a few days a week for fresher stuff and because i don't have a car so i literally can't get a lot of groceries at one time.

      with pandemic i finally caved and bought a granny cart so i could walk and get groceries just once a week (early on it was every 2 weeks).

      because of this, i can sorta see how 'storage' becomes an issue.

        I think it probably also has to do with people who live in urban areas vs people like myself who live in rural/suburban/exurban car hellholes and drive their death machine to pick up a half ton of food at a time from the local MegaMart.

      Two laundry hampers.

      One for colors and for whites?

      No. Dirty and clean.

        Clothes in the dresser: clean, unworn in so long they're getting musty

        Clothes on top of the dresser: "clean", worn recently and will be worn again before they are washed
