Of that 70 dollar order, none of it actually pays the driver. So yes. Let the companies die.

If you really want that ultraprocess garbage spend the ¢50 in gas and drive to the taco bell. The new one by my house even has a mobile order lane separate from the standard ordering lane, so you can at least skip waiting behind the Civic full of baked college bros that forgot what a quesadilla is.

Baked college bros driving to Taco Bell seems like more of a case for convenient delivery options imo, they should not be driving at all

Lol, reading this reminds me of a Jack In The Box commercial from the mid 2000s: https://youtu.be/3ZdT9MkyG7I

Not only that but it pushes the 'everything on demand' mentality. All of these people I know have gained 50 or more pounds since the COVID lockdown, and they got trained to order everything online.
