College was sweet. We rolled out of bed and headed straight to the university to satisfy our hunger. Now that we’ve graduated from college, we sometimes get too caught up in everyday life to satisfy our most primal urge – to eat. We no longer have a choice to eat like the university’s buffet lines. We run to whatever is most convenient, and usually that means Pizza or Starbucks.
Recently, I was told of a new trend by one of my friends and it is becoming my own habit -- online food ordering. Just like in college, we can now roll out of bed and (hear this) order food on the computer and it will be delivered to you, in your pajamas. Now I can take my time to decide what I want. In my neighborhood is a restaurant called Taco's to You in Huntington Beach, California Mexican Food that is online. There are pictures of the food items for me to choose from. I don’t have to talk to anyone to take my order anymore. The mouse does the talking. And I know the order is correct (and hence the information I give is correct) because it is in my order cart, as well as a confirmation email that tells me the order has been transmitted. I don’t know how the order gets to the restaurant (I think it’s a fax system). But I know the food is fast. One time I asked the new delivery man how he found this place so quickly (a lot of them have gotten lost) and he told me that the service they use to take online orders gives them the map of my address so that they can find it easily. Can you imagine that!
