On some of those late nights, especially when I picked up Indian food, I'd be hungry enough to genuinely consider this

A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.

Thats a nice way of putting it. I always just thought of it as inserting themselves into things that worked fine before but now they extract margin from everyone involved.
I used to just phone a local business and someone would who worked for them would bring me food. It worked fine.
our local thai restaurants have gone back to that model. they all share the same delivery guy, but they don't use doordash. it's more honest and fair for everyone involved.
A couple of our locals have now. Haven't used an app in years. It was always a terrible experience and way more expensive.
One of them you can pay by card on delivery, the driver brings a wireless card terminal. Works great.
It still works for so many places, all you need to do is pick up the phone and ask. Some have order forms on their websites too and you usually get a better deal.
But beware, some of those App companies create URLs for businesses (without their knowledge or consent) to reroute your search back to their App.
