Love my first house, but one costly problem

So, I moved into my first house in September of 2024, and I've been working on the place; making it a home.
I like it, but I haven't done a lot with the guest room, I've been so busy working, and I want to work on my music, but I digress...

What I want to talk about is eating. I like to cook but I get so busy I am not always in the mood to cook, so I buy groceries with the intention of cooking, and they've gone bad before I get a chance to cook them!!! Which is very sad it's a total waste.

So then I think well... maybe I should just be practical and realize I'm only going to cook once a week and maybe I should sign up for one of those meal delivery deals.

I have looked into them and heard Cook Unity was the best in many areas that matter to me, so I'm thinking maybe I'll go with that but isn't that expensive? Like, it's way more expensive than grocery shopping and cooking, by far, but if I'm having these problems maybe it's worth it. I think, at least, it's got to be cheaper than ordering delivery all the time, right?

I don't know, you ever been in this situation.
