I've never used GrubHub, DoorDash, or any of those meal delivery services. I know I'm in the minority here, but I just don't trust people to not mess with my food in between the store and my house.
I've never once even considered it. I absolutely do not get this concept.
It's born from the same idea that people will pass out Halloween candy with blades in it. Which is a thing that is everyone "knows" about but has never actually been reported to happen.
I used it during the pandemic. I also had the Chase card that gave you free DashPass for a year and it was fantastic. I made a couple orders once that promo was done and quickly determined that it was no longer worth it.
Shame that it doesn't look like the financials involved could ever really work except in niche situations. It was nice having food delivered to my doorstep.
