"A study by the New Economics Foundation in London found that every £10
spent in a local food business is worth £25 for the local area, compared
with just £14 when the same amount is spent in a supermarket. That is, a
pound (or dollar peso, or rupee) spent locally generates nearly twice as
much income for the local economy."

No surprise...

Fast Food is much pricier than cooking your own food.

Frankly, I could not afford to live entirely off of food made by
somebody else!

Nor would it be healthy in most cases.
