    Food delivery.

    I never imagined a delivery service for restaurants with drive-thru would take off .

      It’s kinda good for people who don’t have the time or the means to go pick up food, but don’t mind paying almost twice as much for lukewarm soggy food

      I kinda get it, if you want takeout food and you can’t or won’t drive it could be convenient. But it’s just so expensive.

        I realised that it was my bias as car owner.

        A good lesson about how all can have blind spots.

      This is interesting to me. Drive through isn’t very popular in the UK, I think there’s a few KFCs and maybe McDonald’s/burger king.

      But driving is such a pita I might as well cook or buy something from a supermarket if I’m going to do anything active.

      Unless I’m on the way back home from a commute perhaps? I don’t really understand the business model. Also, what’s wrong with parking and walking in to get it? Leaving the engine running and crawling forwards to a window and then waiting anyway, I don’t get it.
