Very interesting data, though I think it also shows that people don't always think things through. When we order from Domino's, the bill with tip comes to about $28 and we eat everything at that meal. When we go out to a place like Olive Garden, the bill will be more in the $40 range but there will always be leftovers for at least one and often two more meals, making the cost per person per meal actually lower than Domino's. Just last night, we went out to casual Italian place. The bill came to $37.00, just $9 more than Domino's. We had a much better meal (eggplant parm, chicken marsala, baked ravioli, garlic bread, etc.) and I took the leftovers for lunch today. So Domino's was $9.33/person/meal and this place was $9.25/person/meal. I'll take the nicer restaurant and better food any day.
