I personally have never ordered food from any delivery service and only a few times a year from any restaurant at all, because I know how to cook and worse case, make a peanut butter sandwich.

But if people are going to order food to go, is it better to have everyone driving to pick it up or better to have one driver picking up and delivering multiple orders at once?

I mean, in a world of finite resources and pollution, which is better?



People using these services know how to cook, they're usually trying to save time. Especially if they don't want to interrupt their work to ready a meal.


I don't know about other people, but I can cook almost as fast as dealing with a delivery service. Most meals I eat take about 15 minutes to make.


You can pre-order lunch to arrive for your lunchtime meetings in about a minute in the app. Probably less convenient if you have an apartment, compared to a house, though.
