Food Allergies
When cooking at home you have complete control over what goes in your food. Even if you're not making everything from scratch, you can still easily check the ingredient lists on any packages to make sure that you're making exactly what you and your guests and family are okay with eating. A ton of recipes also exist for different food allergies, like gluten free recipes for celiacs disease, so it's almost like there are existing guidelines for any allergies you might encounter!
Price
Cooking at home is way less expensive than either bringing in food our going out to eat. Know why? Because you're not paying other people to cook food for you :)
Regularly making homemade meals can save you and your family a lot of money in the long run. One servings for a regular main dish normally costs around $3 to $5. The cost of something similar at a restaurant could be be three to four times as expensive! Yikes!
