Like many convenience services, it’s important that it exists because some people genuinely can’t walk or can’t walk all the time, can’t chop their own fruit and veg, etc. Or genuinely don’t have enough time in the day to cook or pick something up. But people will still use these things for simple luxury reasons.
I mean, most everyone will be disabled at some point in their life. They’re also useful for the average person when they’re sick and don’t have anyone to take care of them. I know I’ve struggled to feed myself when I had the flu or covid.
But even if they are indeed fringe use cases, those services do need to exist for those cases. And restricting them isn’t very helpful either way because applying for any sorts of benefits is often difficult and/or degrading for many disabled people. BUT: we should still encourage those who CAN avoid this stuff to do so, since they are indeed damaging to worker’s rights and the environment.
Me thesis is that vast majority of the users of these services are broke people who have no business using them but the conversation always devolves into some fringe cases needing them…
It is a free market to waste your money as you see please but in current economic context, it is clowny to be whining about being broke and then using thee services.
I am not even getting into how shiti these parasite treat the workers.
Just merely notting that getting slop delivered by doordash is the most expensive option on the market, everyone is bitching about being poor then proceeda to defend using this trash service
Which is also terriable for the worker on top of that

Those are fringe use cases. Majority of it is conspicuous consumption.
Also, grocery stores sell prepared foods and there other options for these people. Why are they choosing most expensive one?

Who’s down voting this 😂 Big food delivery bots? Or are there really that many people who hate hearing the truth?
Got a few people big mad about it too
Clearly an unpopular opinion lol
Anecdotally, the people I know who order door dash multiple times a week are also people who frequently complain about money

I am suggesting viable substitution options which is the grocery store prepped food which also does delivery
