Does it really save money to buy food and cook by yourself?

Buying food and cooking by yourself is naturally much cheaper than saving money outside, which is for sure, because the boss needs to pay rent, labor and miscellaneous expenses when he goes out to eat, and the profit is naturally much higher than the cost of cooking a dish at home. Under normal circumstances, buying food and cooking by yourself will basically save about 60% compared with eating out, but the taste of the food may not be as good as that outside. Why is it cheaper to buy food and cook by yourself? First, the meals and ingredients in the restaurant are cost-calculated, but not at home. For example, a dish of shredded potatoes, the hotel now sells at least 12 yuan, while feeding is generally about 220 yuan per catty, and the retail price of a catty of potatoes is only 2 yuan, so if you cook a dish with the same weight as the hotel at home, the cost of raw materials at home will be 2.4 yuan, and the cost of seasoning and gas will not exceed 3 yuan, so you can at least save 9 yuan by cooking at home.

Second, the hotel mainly sells services and environment, cooking at home and self-help, and having plenty of food and clothing. We can go to the restaurant without doing anything, then wipe our mouths and leave. I need to wash vegetables and cook at home, and then I have to wash dishes. Use the hotel's venues and services for dining out, and these expenses should be included in the natural dishes. If you save all these expenses at home, you will naturally save a lot of money than staying in a hotel.

Because restaurants have these expenses, their dishes are generally the cost of raw materials, plus at least double, in order to achieve their own costs and profits. Third, cooking at home is more in line with the tastes of yourself and your family, and it is safer and healthier. Nowadays, in order to pursue the taste, restaurants use heavy seasonings, and there are many kinds of rapeseed products. Although these dishes taste good, long-term consumption will bring health risks.

The dishes cooked at home can be adjusted according to the tastes of yourself and your family. Although it may not be delicious outside, it tastes comfortable and healthy. This is why many people like home cooking.

No matter what kind of food you cook at home, you will save a lot of money than going to a restaurant. If a person goes out to eat the same food as at home every day, then the monthly expenditure is at least three times more than that of cooking by himself.
