Generally unhealthy food, expensive and since the boycott, it’s only local owned places or A&W, proudly Canadian, for us. I could feed my family of 4 two full dinners for what it costs for one takeout. Cooking from whole, simple foods is the way to go.

More of us are eating at small local restaurants cuz f*** big corporate shit food. Also, homemade food made with ingredients picked fresh from the garden is waaaay better tasting.
