    They can surge all they like. Our family just stopped buying from them (and most fast food places).

    It’s not a time saver to sit in a drive thru instead of making something for meals at home.

      I agree we’re better off to cut out fast food, but…

      How long are the drive thrus you get stuck in? I think the worst I’ve ever had was 20 minutes and it was because their registers were acting up. The simplest meal at home is definitely 20 minutes unless you’re literally only eating plain ramen or cereal. I mean I guess you can make an egg in less than 20 minutes, but that doesn’t count the time in the grocery store or dishes?

        Are you including the time it takes to drive to the drive thru and back? For many, that’s 20 min+ right there

          You know, I was not at all. I guess I figured if fast food wasn’t on your direct path (or only very slightly out of the way) it wouldn’t even be considered as an option.
