Cause of the KFC Monday Special, we have Chicken most Mondays. Can't make this it at home for this price. Otherwise generally cook meals at home is the norm. One meal with one more day of leftovers.
However seen busy couples using Gourmet Meal delivery service for the family dinner each day. Only problem is the Kids have gotten real picky about their food when eating at others houses.
So many more options for heat and eat meals today. Can get frozen dinners for a few bucks, can't beat the value.
Not sure if you feel this is healthy or not but... it's pretty far from.

Not to mention for 2.99 you can be guaranteed it is the cheapest, mass produced, antibiotic and pesticide laden "food" money can buy. Then add the artificial flavorings, preservatives and sweeteners on top of that.![]()

In addition to the health ramifications I think these adds are devaluing the importance of cooking and I see issues for future generations. Hell, my little sister 29 after 5 years of marriage is already "taking night off" from cooking. My mom at 60 just started that a couple years ago.
I'm not saying the wife/woman's job is too cook. I'm saying it's someone's job and people should learn. Too often do I run into people my age and they say 'I dont cook but can help with the dishes'.How hard is it following a recipe? Nothing's going to explode and kill you. Cooking is losing it's importance because everyones time is "more" important. Not digging that.

Trends in US home food preparation and consumption: analysis of national nutrition surveys and time use studies from 1965–1966 to 2007–2008
Background
It has been well-documented that Americans have shifted towards eating out more and cooking at home less. However, little is known about whether these trends have continued into the 21st century, and whether these trends are consistent amongst low-income individuals, who are increasingly the target of public health programs that promote home cooking. The objective of this study is to examine how patterns of home cooking and home food consumption have changed from 1965 to 2008 by socio-demographic groups.
Methods
This is a cross-sectional analysis of data from 6 nationally representative US dietary surveys and 6 US time-use studies conducted between 1965 and 2008. Subjects are adults aged 19 to 60 years (n= 38,565 for dietary surveys and n=55,424 for time-use surveys). Weighted means of daily energy intake by food source, proportion who cooked, and time spent cooking were analyzed for trends from 1965–1966 to 2007–2008 by gender and income. T-tests were conducted to determine statistical differences over time.
Results
The percentage of daily energy consumed from home food sources and time spent in food preparation decreased significantly for all socioeconomic groups between 1965–1966 and 2007–2008 (p ≤ 0.001), with the largest declines occurring between 1965 and 1992. In 2007–2008, foods from the home supply accounted for 65 to 72% of total daily energy, with 54 to 57% reporting cooking activities. The low income group showed the greatest decline in the proportion cooking, but consumed more daily energy from home sources and spent more time cooking than high income individuals in 2007–2008 (p ≤ 0.001).
Conclusions
US adults have decreased consumption of foods from the home supply and reduced time spent cooking since 1965, but this trend appears to have leveled off, with no substantial decrease occurring after the mid-1990’s. Across socioeconomic groups, people consume the majority of daily energy from the home food supply, yet only slightly more than half spend any time cooking on a given day. Efforts to boost the healthfulness of the US diet should focus on promoting the preparation of healthy foods at home while incorporating limits on time available for cooking.

BUT my mom made us set the table and we had to help clean up, we also shucked green beans and peeled garlic amongst other things. This was the time to tell mom about our schooling and to engage her in questions.
