Note I did not buy any food for myself.
To head off questions:
-
No, I couldn’t cook for her. I’m suffering from a long-term illness where I can’t eat solid foods and am extremely smell sensitive. My wife is at a funeral, so I had to order food.
-
She’s extremely picky and refused to let me order anything but pizza.
-
We live outside of town, in a not very big town, with very few pizza delivery options, and they’re all at least this expensive.
-
No, I didn’t also have to buy her the cheesy bread or the second topping or the sauces, but it’s nice to get my daughter a treat and that is no excuse for the order being that expensive.
-
We’re in Indiana, so this should be ludicrous in terms of pricing. This used to be the pricing I would expect when we lived in L.A. and ordered from a good local place rather than a chain.
I’m kind of the opposite. The only places that tend to have their own delivery drivers now are pizza joints.
I cannot stand DoorDash, the delivery always sucks but I really don’t blame the drivers. The restaurants that say “we deliver” but then offload that shit to DoorDash, take 50% of the tip piss me off the most. And now the food is nasty because some dude in his car is working up a sweat trying to deliver 16,000 other orders at the same time.
