Without fail it is less expensive to cook at home then it is to eat out. How they think home cooking is a luxury is beyond me - completely backwards.
It's leftist mentality. Leftist mentality is always backwards thinking.

You’re exactly right. Most of us who lived through the 70s know this. Even a few millennials are catching on. One of my sons has learned how to cook quite well, and tries forever to teach his friends that eating out costs more moolah. It is a place to SAVE money.
I think what I’ve learned from observing this millennial generation is that most of them weren’t taught how to cook at home. Possibly because they had working mothers who didn’t want to do that chore. So none of them know HOW to cook.
I think that may be one of the intrinsic values that came out of my being a stay at home mom. The kids saw me pore through cookbooks trying to come up with new and interesting (and healthy!) foods while they were young. When they wanted to help in the kitchen, I let them. We made a game out of it and called them “little chef” when it was their turn.
All three of our kids are excellent chefs. The oldest is particularly good at the grill. The middle and the youngest have both been good at most everything else in the kitchen.
Moral is to teach your kids how to cook, parents! These kids need to know this skill!
