OK, this actually worked as advertised. I feel dopamined.
I just wished the delivery took longer and there was a payment process that longer than an instant. Could have a saved card on file that you could use.
I actually thought the Reddit context was quite helpful. I wouldn’t have guessed that this would be particularly meaningful for people with a binge eating disorder.
I was really hoping to add some fries, a drink and to customize my burger. Not that I customize my burger except maybe take off the pickles or remove the ice from my drink, but it adds to the dopamine factor.

I’m confused. How does the food-ordering process give you dopamine? It generally just gives me anxiety due to the uncertainties involved, until the food arrives in good condition, which here it won’t.
The hardest part of food delivery is the tip section. It's where you use all your brain power to make a decision. That's the only part I would have given me dopamine hit from pretend tipping. Missed opportunity.

*We won’t tell you, but you might notice, we’ve now increased the service charge by almost the amount of what you saved on that free delivery.

Fully customized sex worker service at your doorstep ... faked for the dopamine, of course.
At least I can order regular food with this.
