Things don't have to be that bad. Here in vietnam you can get a bahn mi or soup for 75 cents to 2 dollars, people who make way less than you do eat out every single day and still manage to save money.

The problem isn't that people want to pay someone else to make or deliver food, the problem is that it's all insanely overpriced because capitalism.

You think Vietnam has cheap food because it’s not capitalism?

No, I think prices increase under capitalism as commercial rent increases and effective monopolies are formed.

Why not just lookup the actual answer instead of guessing badly?

Talk to literally any business owner, ask them how much rent is.
