I'm just curious as to why it seems like people become addicted to eating out at restaurants, fast food joints and other place that are 'out' places to eat.

  1. Too lazy or too busy to cook?


  2. I eat out almost every day. It's either because I'm too lazy to fix myself something or I don't have any ingredients to fix myself something.  

  3. I agree with the lazy factor but it also has a lot to do with the amount of sugar involved in the processing and flavoring of many restaurant foods.  Sugar acts like a drug with your brains receptors and you crave it like a drug.  When you get used to a sugar fix from a meal you need that same type of feeling.  Home cooked meals don't have the additives that many restaurant/fast food places have so even though you should be satisfied you are left craving because your sugar receptors haven't been "nourished."


  4. Some people hate cooking and would rather eat out or they work full time and don't have time to cook.

  5. its not so much the food as it is the atmosphere. People will continue to go to an "okay" resturaunt w/ pretty good food if it is affordable and they like the atmosphere.

    A lot of people today do NOT know how to cook a complete meal from scratch. Some of them are even convinced that eating out is less expensive than cooking each meal from scratch.

    O yeah, some foods have ingredients and additives that actually ARE addictive.

  6. Don't you think the word "addicted" is a little overwrought?

    I don't think anyone is addicted to eating at restaurants. Some people don't have a lot of time. Some can't cook. There are a myriad of other reasons. An addiction to restaurants and/or fast food restaurants? Doubtful.

  7. all the carbs that craves more carbs for your body so people eat out.

    =]

  8. Just plain lazy, it's not a matter of always been busy, cause if you have to commit to other things, cooking should be one of them.

  9. because it's good

  10. Well for me it's a combo of being too lazy and busy. I order take out (pizza usually) 2-3 times a week. It's just very convenient for myself.

  11. because its just so good

  12. they like the taste of oils and grease.
