I guess I'm just not in the demographic here, but I don't get all this food delivery that's going on. I think 5% of the articles here are about restaurant delivery. I can't believe this is such a big thing! Did you people eat at restaurants this much before the coronavirus? Why is it, all of a sudden, that the only way to eat is to get delivery from Chipotle?

I guess I was never much of a restaurant guy before all this stay-at-home, and ever since stay-at-home, I've gotten food delivered exactly zero times. It's not even something I'd consider, given that there is a global pandemic and I have no idea whether anyone in the pipeline between cook and driver is sick. Food delivery is the business I'd have predicted would go to 0% in a viral outbreak, but here we are with it flourishing. Totally astounding. Maybe I'm the only one surprised, I don't know.
