Yeah I get that. I just got used to it and now its just another thing I do all the time. Now I come home half dead and whip up a dinner no problem. The only reason I would recommend fast food over home cooking is if you are disabled.

Cool... So next time I'm on a long trip and I need something quick for lunch I'll just pull over on the side of the highway and set up the camp stove? Should be no problem 👌

I pack lunches. But yeah there's gonna be edge cases like that. I'd imagine long haul truck drivers probably dont cook often either. But for the average American I'm confident fast food and even restaurants are largely unnecessary.

You could go to a normal restaurant. But yeah, usually fast food is faster, but that's because it's at the truck stop, not because you get the food so fast

Truck stop? I think I got fast food at a truck stop once like 10 years ago lol the ones I go to are normally just stand alone restaurants with a drive through. The only reason I go there is if I'm in a hurry and there's no other options because it's faster than going to a regular sit down restaurant
