With the price of everything going through the roof, it just doesn’t make any sense for my wife and I to go out for dinner unless it’s for a (very) special occasion. A reasonably decent pizza (ie, not from a chain restaurant) in my town can easily set you back $50-$70 for a single, two-topping pizza - not counting drinks. We’ve both agreed that it’s far more responsible, healthier AND tastier for us to cook at home. There’s really no downside other than time and effort.
