Picture this: You’re out at a restaurant, perusing the menu and salivating over the mouthwatering options. But as you’re about to place your order, a twinge of guilt creeps in. Sound familiar? If so, you’re in good company. A recent survey of 2,000 adults reveals that a whopping 67% of Americans feel guilty when dining out.
In today’s economic climate, with budgets tighter than ever, the simple act of eating out has become a source of stress for many. Almost a quarter (23%) of respondents reported that spending money on a meal out is stressful, while 44% attributed their guilt to both the act of spending and the amount spent.
Personally, I don't feel too guilty about eating out, but that's not because I'm made of money or anything: I just don't do it that often, so it's always more of a treat . However, I might feel a bit guilty if I know someone in the group is struggling financially.
What about you?
