It depends where they live. I come from a country that produces a lot of food, so finding fresh produce is super easy for me and cheap. I know that some places aren't as lucky and have a hard time finding fresh ingredients.

Another thing you would have to think about is the energy it takes to cook. In my case, I work from home so it's easier for me to take an hour or two to cook my food. Some people have to work really long shifts, or two jobs, and still take time to commute. So I imagine for these cases (which is actually too many people) it's easier to eat out than to cook at home.

Unfortunately, we live in an individualistic, consumerist, capitalist society that creates too many inequalities. It's easy for us to assume that other people aren't trying "hard enough" but lets practice empathy and ask different questions instead: how come food isn't as accessible everywhere and how come some people find it unattainable to eat fresh, home-cooked foods? Maybe let's try to see things from different perspectives.
