Life isn't a race. He who gets to the finish line first is dead.
I've been there and done that when it has come to fast food lunches and TV diners. If it has been packaged as food and sold on a shelf, odds are I may have tried it. These days though, I'm enjoying a bit different lifestyle.
THE BLESSING OF VARIETY
We just enjoyed some homemade "zucchini sticks" for our last dinner. Personally, I've neither heard of these before or tried them before, but they were delicious. Also, while we did purchase the zucchini, the bread crumbs that they were coated with were not only homemade bread crumbs, they were made from homemade bread.
You'll notice that in between my random adventures, contests, and wild animals, I also eat. A lot of my diet is becoming farm-raised and home grown these days, which has been a huge blessing. Unlike your local McBurger, we have no menu. If we want to enjoy some fresh rainbow trout on the grill, we go trout fishing.
If we want a special desert, we'll think up something interesting or 
PAPA'S POINT
The point of this post is not to make some lame attempt to brag that I ate something homemade and healthy. That's just not my style. This is meant to be a motivational post.
What I would like to accomplish is to encourage and inspire you to slow down and enjoy life. While fast food may be appealing and it certainly is "cheap and easy," cheap and easy is not always a good thing. Perhaps spending an hour preparing a meal that will only take you five minutes to eat doesn't seem like a good way to invest your time, and I understand that. However, we all actually have the same amount of time each day, and perhaps some of us need to slow down.
Why do so many of us run so hard all day long? Why are we constantly rushing to and from places? Have we taken on too much? Are we working too much/too hard because we have not been wise financially? Whatever the issue is, I would suggest that it may be wise to slow down, take a break, and enjoy some slow food. In fact, don't even enjoy the food by yourself, but share it!
Do you remember these tasty Kiwi "Popsicles?" They were so good that after all the effort 
Anyway, I wanted to keep this short and encouraging, so although most of you are fully capable of buying a bargain burger at the nearest drive-thru and saying "yum!" However, sometimes life is more pleasant if you take the time to enjoy it more thouroughly. Just some food for thought.
As always, I'm
