Once viewed as a quick, affordable meal, fast food is increasingly seen as a luxury by many Americans due to rising menu prices, according to a new LendingTree survey. The financial advice website …
No. An adult would be content on half a medium pizza, sadly not nourished of course but that’s being broke for you. 2 people per. This an estimate dude not weighed down to the gram/calorie. And when you’re broke, you sometimes just get a greasy item or two and call it a day.
None of y’all are factoring time and knowledge into this either. Fast food for a family? Minutes, no thought. Cooking regularly for a family? Basically a part time job.
A medium cheese pizza from dominos is 1660 calories. A slice is 210 calories.
630 calories (3 slices) for a meal seems about right.
A pan pizza from dominos is 2320 calories. a slice is 290 calories.
Two slices for the pan pizza seems fine too and with their typical pickup deals is the same price.
Though their deals usually give you two toppings for free. My favorite is Chicken, Bacon, Ranch sauce on pan. It’s 2,960 a pizza, or 370 per slice. Right now my local dominos offers these for $8 each if you buy two. 6000 calories for $16. Stupid cheap and feeds minimum 6 people who want a thousand calorie meal each.
I definitely get the appeal of fast food. It might also depend on what a “Medium” pizza is.
6 people for 3 medium pizzas doesn’t seem too bad, especially if there’s other snacks or food. But if I had 10 people with 3 medium pizzas, I think I’d have 10 hungry people and 0 pizzas left, haha
Sure. 10 adults is more like a party though. I’m thinking more like my family, two adults and two kids. Cooking for the four of us is very time consuming and requires a ton of research and shopping and trial and error. Not to mention the pickiness of children, so a lot of food gets wasted or doesn’t end up in your family’s stomaches. It is so much work making 12 relatively balanced plates of food a day and it is very expensive. So some people throw up their hands, grab some pizzas or happy meals, and say “I’ll do better next time.”
I’m not anyone who was arguing with you about fast food vs. cooking, and I’m on the same side as you on that. I just couldn’t imagine 3 medium pizzas feeding 10 people to satiety, haha
No it wasn’t, a frozen pizza was always cheaper than dominos. And I don’t know what kind of little only eat one third of a medium pizza.
I usually finished one myself. Well okay, I’m a big man, but still.
A small? Sure. A medium? Most kids do not eat an entire medium pizza. Not until their teen years at least.
So when you said it feeds 6 to 10 people, you meant 6 to 10 children? Lol

I eat 2700 calories a day to maintain my weight. If I ate a 600 calorie meal, I would be considered on a diet since I read 3 meals a day.
