I feel like getting a weeks worth of groceries delivered is a lot more reasonable than like a single cup of coffee or a small fry from McDonalds.
hard agree, it would be a lot more efficient than people going to the grocery store + limited by their personal budget (but we let all this food spoil anyway because it wasn't sold)
Yeah, I really don't have issues with those services (apart from the way their drivers and warehouse staff are treated).
That's more efficient. Less waste, more efficient packing, less vehicle miles, less space used for huge great supermarkets. Uber eats and the like represent the exact opposite of that principle. Parceling things into ever smaller units of "convenience" to extract the maximum amount of rent from a customer. More journeys, more packaging, more waste.
