Takeaways

[Icehaven]

So we're all actually being encouraged to get loads of takeaways wooo! support local businesses in this time of crisis as it helps them out, particularly ones that have changed their business model to become takeaways, and eat in a way we're normally told is lazy, expensive and unhealthy. I am totally on board with this, being by nature lazy, profligate and unhealthy, however Mr. H is reluctant as he thinks someone might have coughed on it, or that the delivery person might be diseased. I see his point, but pizza. Are you doing your bit and merrily living on Just Eat, or also of the mind that you don't know where it's been?

I got swine flu from an Indian takeaway back when it was going around, but I like them so much I'm continuing to risk it.

[Better Midlands]

I can't believe anyone would order takeaway right now, from the unknown kitchen preperation situation to the just eat/deliveroo method of multple delivery people visiting different restaurants/customers they seem like a virus' distribution dream.

[PlanktonSideburns]

shouldnt they shut them down and offer them support?

seems totally unfair on everyone involved

risking killing people for PIZZA KEBABS BURGERS is well brexit

[idunnosomename]

as i said this pandemic unfortunately seems to make those who never leave the fucking house and sit on their fat arse eating junk and watching telly into hereos

On my walk yesterday the kebab van was still running.

Which blew my mind a bit, to be fair.

[PlanktonSideburns]

shes fuming that theyre still allowed to go on

Surely this is the time to start experimenting in the kitchen, and not in a sexual way.

Ok, as long as you remember to wash your hands.

That tasty eh?

Thought about having a Chinese last night but on JustEat there are only 5 left in Leeds, with another 27 closed for the duration, if not forever. The 5 left are so expensive that we gave up on the idea, but not until we had a chance to drool over the idea of Fragrant Stir-fried Pork Intestines, Szechuan style.

I'm assuming we're having a generous serving of leftover stir-fried racism with our pandemic.

Uber Eats have waived their delivery charges for the duration of corona so it's open season in my household. I've been mainly ordering Korean stuff. Given the Italian places a big swerve.

Did you check on their individual websites? I looked to order pizza Thursday and Just-Eat said they were closed, but their own website let me order. Fucking delicious too.

Seem to recall the current thinking is that food and food packaging are of a very minimal risk.

Got a pizza in last night after much deliberation despite them not taking card payments - just left the money in a little freezer baggie thing on the doorstep, delivery guy exchanged it with a pizza.  Washed hands after touching the box just in the infinitesimal chance of catching anything from it.

The extra few seconds that would've been spent picking an extra thing up in the supermarket would've probably been more dangerous

waiter waiter! what's this bat doing in my soup!

minimal risk to eater or staff?

The idea of a takeaway holds no appeal to me at the minute. Part of the joy of the takeaway for me is having one at the end of a hard week. I strip down to my underpants, crack open a beer, open the door, greet the delivery boy, grab my food, slump on to the sofa, breathe a sigh of relief, open a box of kleenex then devour enough food for 6 people. If you've not worked for it. If you've scarcely burnt a single calorie all week, what's the point of a takeaway.

Cos it tastes nice! Also I'd say more reason to have it when we're on lockdown since people are presumably having to make their own meals a lot more and that can get tiresome.

I got offered 12 quid off any order over 5 quid (??) from Uber Eats but there are literally only four places in my area that are on there, and two of them have 2-3 star ratings.

On average we have between one to three takeaways a week; two to six a fortnight. Say, I dunno, seven or eight to twenty two to twenty eight a month. Something like ninety to three hundred and fiftyish a year. Not had one for weeks. I'm out of napkins and extra menus.

[Gregory Torso]

can't imagine anything shiter than a takeway maybe a handjob from ram man
