Cooking during COVID-19

[R2Dawg]

We are still eating almost as normal except not eating out as much and eating more sandwhiches at work. Folks need to still eat out (drive thru) as much as feasible and here is why. First support our local businesses that have good food to eat.

Second, the more you eat at home, the more you eat your food stock at home and in case of more severe lockdown you will be lower. Now the argument that well food places may have virus, well the grocery store workers may also have virus. You either have someone at store or restaurant handling your food or boxes. I've see good protection, better protection at restaurants than grocery. The more folks keep eating out some the less impact on economy and food stress at grocery stores.

Order groceries online. No clue how much longer this service will be offered though. Still a risk but much less risky and nearly no contact with any workers or shoppers.


I guess you could argue that's no different than ordering a meal from a restaurant. And I'm all about supporting service industries right now. But your getting more than one meal from a grocery store and typically you can't stretch a meal from a restaurant over 2 sittings. If you can you'll do great if it comes down to real rationing ha.
