The answer to this conundrum is simple: to keep doing what people have been doing for thousands of years, cooking their own meals. Since the dawn of time, this tried and true ritual of eating the fruits of your labor has been the most popular method of delivering food to your face. And while it’s generally not good to follow traditions thousands of years old, in this case, it works. Because unlike bathing in the river, putting leeches on someone’s forehead, and dying before 18, this is a tradition that should be continued. But that’s not a sound argument, so here are 3 actual arguments.

1. Eating at home rather than going out to eat is an efficient way to save money, because you normally get enough food to last you the week, meaning you spend the week with food rather than having to buy food for each meal.
2. Eating at home gives you far more variety in terms of dishes than eating out. In the town of Greenville SC, most restaurants are burger bars, fast food restaurants, Mexican restaurants, or Asian restaurants. And all of them serve the exact same thing, just for a slightly different price. You can cook anything at home, provided you have the ingredients. Ergo, saving you money if you read my first point.
3. Eating at home is generally healthier than eating out, because most people use more nutritious ingredients, serve it with fruits and/or vegetables, or simply just process and fry it less.

Caden may say that eating out is easier to clean up, which is only really a sound argument if you have a phobia of running the dishwasher twice in one week, which probably doesn’t even exist. He also might say that it is cooked by professionals. No, it’s often not. The discrepancy in terms of skill when it comes to cooking when comparing a person working at an Applebees and Gordon Ramsay is large. And it’s even bigger if you’re comparing a fast food worker to him. So, no, unless you’re at Hell’s Kitchen in Las Vegas, you probably aren’t being served by professionals.
In summation, cooking at home is better because it is cheaper, has more variety, and is generally healthier. Along with that, no good reason has been provided to show that eating out is better, ergo, showing that there is likely no sound argument in favor of eating out. Now, that’s some real food for thought.

Going out to eat at a restaurant is better than eating at home. For one, eating at a restaurant is easier than doing so at home because of the lack of cleanup required. Eating at home requires dish cleaning and table cleaning after it’s all said and done. Also, eating at a restaurant is better because the food is cooked by professionals who know what they are doing. The food is consistently good. The opposition to my argument might say that eating at home is cheaper, and to that i say yes it probably is cheaper. But, if the budget allows, eating out takes the stress of dish cleaning away and provides a way for people to meet up and chat. The opposition might also say that eating at home allows families to congregate after a long day away from each other, and to that i say that eating out allows families to socialize with each other and other people.
