Not sure if this post would be better handled over in "Money and Finances" but I'll give it a shot here.
Has anyone worked the numbers on cooking yourself vs. fast food /grocery 'deli' conveniences?
I know for a family of 4 or 6 you can't beat the casserole dish of Tuna Surprise on price but what about a solo van trecker?
I know my wife and I have alot of trouble getting produce in 2-person sizes and it takes careful planning to keep ingredients from spoiling.
Add in the cooking fuel and time you could be doing something else. The profit on fixing your own meals might start to get pretty thin.
Opinions?
