Delivered Meals

One thing I know is I am just tired of cooking. Cooking every meal for three weeks straight was exhausting. And I was someone who cooked dinner almost every single night. But now being forced to cook every meal and sometimes snack, it just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. I want to eat tasty, delicious foods. But I don’t want to be the one spending forty-five minutes to cook the meal. The obvious solution, and the one I think many people are turning to, is carryout or curbside pickup from their favorite local restaurants.

Carrying out from a local restaurant not only benefits the customer because they are getting a great meal without having to cook themselves, and the restaurant owners get to stay in business during this difficult time. If you haven’t checked out your local restaurants to see if they have curbside pickup, I definitely recommend that you do. Luckily, these restaurants are still getting their packaging supplies from companies. The delivery may be a little bit slower, so they have to make due with what they have sometimes.

The most common takeout containers that restaurants use are food containers. These containers are made specifically for handling food. The styrofoam containers are durable and will prevent leaks even against liquid sauces. There are also different sizes of containers for different kinds of foods. There is a three compartment container that allows for the separation of three different foods. A sandwich size container is also available for any type of sandwich, sub, or hoagie. Then there are smaller containers for desserts or sides.

Another option for packaging supplies for a restaurant is a food service film wrap. This device feeds plastic cling wrap out so an employee can wrap the sandwich or burger in the plastic wrap. The sandwich can then be placed directly into a paper bag to be ready for pickup. This keeps everything nice and clean from the time the food is finished cooking until it is unwrapped at the customer’s house.

Some companies are even switching their business to specifically serve lunch and dinner boxes. They only make a few options each day and then the customer is able to pick between several different entrees, sides, and desserts. The deli box is then packed by an employee with the selected entree, side, and dessert. This way people can easily and quickly just order ahead and then pick up a few boxes for the family for a meal.
