Food delivery has swelled to a more than $10 billion industry in America. For the first time, restaurants are projected to make more money from food consumed outside their doors than inside in 2020. That’s partly thanks to ordering apps such as Door Dash, Grubhub, Uber Eats, and many others. Brook Silva-Braga explains how the billion-dollar trend started.

2. "the boonies"

In the 50's I grew up on a small farm 14 miles from the small city where we did our monthly shopping.

It was a great way to grow up, but today, 73 and disabled, I like the benefits of city life.

3. I'm sorry to hear that....

I wouldn't trade my boonies for uber though.
