What an interesting mix of answers. It appears that there is a very even split of people who eat a lot and those who eat out very little. About 60% of people eat out $25-100/month, while 25% of people eat out $100-200/month. But 4% of people spend over $200/month while 8% never eat out at all.
I guess it depends on where you live, and what point in your life you are. The lifestyle choices are probably shaped due to interesting circumstances. I know that Fabulously Broke in the City a guest poster, lives out of a hotel room without an apartment. Because of this I can guess they eat out more than average. But they save tons of money by not paying rent or mortgage. A very neat lifestyle.
I am rather impressed by the results of the poll. It seems not that many people are indulging in eating out as polls of the average americans would claim.

Yep.. We do eat out a lot.
But we do conserve money as well (and our waistlines), by only eating out three times a week rather than every day and for every meal!!!
Believe it or not, it gets boring…
I actually prefer it if Husband cooks food instead..

It’s hard to curb eating out. But good job on not living in a place with a real kitchen and doing so well.
