I agree. So, the marketing tactic on the TV video about everyone's "kitchen being closed" is a stretch??? It doesn't appear to be so. Perhaps 50/50?
Some prefer their own home cooking while others enjoy dining out often.

We do enjoy eating out when we have extended visitors for a long period.
Then, I need a "break". Or, of course, when on vacation. But at home, one knows exactly what they are putting into their own meals.

Let's face it, we've all fallen back on some prepared food items every now and then.........when we are super busy with other more important things, but to put together a totally natural meal.....is really worthwhile. Plus there is always the leftovers.
