    Yeah, over here can be kinda annoying to eat outside, mostly because during summer time is really hot and there are far too many bugs around!

    I eat outside around five days a week. I'm in college so I don't like doing the dishes. I prefer to go to a restaurant and have someone else do the dishes for me. Thankfully most of my friends have the same dilema and I never eat alone.

    Yeah, eating out can be really convenient, isn't it? It's rather expensive, specially over here. How do you manage to pay for that 5 days a week? I'm currently eating out just twice a week, but it would be nice eating out as often as you do for a change :)

    Wow, you guys eat out a lot more than us here, we eat out like once a month! It's quite expensive so we cook our meals pretty much every night and only have lunches outside.

    You think so? We do it mostly to spend some time outside, but mostly to spend some quality time with the family :) It's awesome, because we can get to spend a nice time together and eat a nice meal. Actually tomorrow is my birthday and we will eat out again :)

    Yeah for us it would be way to expensive to eat out so often, I live in a developing country and our economy has really gone down the drain since we got a corrupt government in '94 so we really can't afford to eat out much. On a lighter note, happy b-day! enjoy your day/night out! it was my b-day like a week ago and my sister-in-law treated me to an outing to a brewery! 'twas awesome!

    Thank you :) I had a good time, we went to a nice place and some Chinese food. It was a good day ;) That outing sounds nice! By the way, if you don't mind me asking... what developing country are we talking about exactly? European, Asian...?

    When you say eat outside, do you mean actually eating outside like eating while you're in a park or outdoors at a restaurant, or on a picnic? Or do you mean, how many times do we eat (out) at a restaurant?

    If you mean how mean times do I eat while outside, like on a picnic or something, I would say almost never, unless I am eating in my car.
    But as far as eating food from a restaurant, I do that sometimes, although to be honest, I am really paranoid about people touching:sour::confused::grumpy::nailbiting::nailbiting::nailbiting::nailbiting: and preparing my food.

    I want to know that the person has washed their hands really good, and that they are a very clean person before they touch my food.
    Realistically, there is no way that I can know all of that unless I know them personally. I have friends that come over to my house (apartment) and cook
    in my kitchen, and I will not eat their food:yuck:.

    I prefer to cook my own food, although since I like to eat, I will eat from a restaurant or fast food place,
    although deep inside, I really don't trust or fully enjoy the food unless I make it myself.

    Both :p:D Most people answered both, so I guess it's fine we go on like that ;) I love eating outside, actually as a kid my dad used to grill a lot, but nowadays I'm not doing it that often. Over here is really hard to eat outside during the summer because of the extreme heat and the flies! But the place where I came back from just recently... they actually like to eat outside often :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

    As for eating out, well, I ate out 3 times this week, counting later today :happy: I also don't trust other people touching my food, but I rather not think about it, lol. That makes eating easier for me :D:roflmao: I only pray to G-d they washed their hands before preparing that food! But you never really know, that's the risk of eating out.
