When traveling for work I can usually get reimbursed for one meal a day along with lodging. But I usually don’t get food because I’m not a real big fan of restaurant food.🍝 I don’t really find it pleasant to eat out, especially when I am traveling alone and I don’t like all the waste and packaging for take out. I also think fast food is just plain gross, 🍟it’s all grease and not very filling. It’s not something I’m used to eating at any rate.

But even at home I almost never eat out. Maybe because I’m single but it also just seems kind of weird trusting strangers to cook your food.🍳 I also am trying to save money wherever possible for my future off grid cabin.💰 Five or ten bucks doesn’t sound like much, but I’m trying to save money wherever possible. While I do often buy lightly packaged per-cooked food at home, and I’m no chef, I would rather do the cooking myself then rely on others.👨‍🍳
