Ah, but you said the word "we." For some of us there's a social aspect of eating out that trumps the occasional waste of money. If I didn't force myself to get out of the house every now and then I'd be a complete, ahem, recluse since I'm no longer working.
I also try to get my mother (who's 89) out of her house a few times a week, although those aren't always restaurant trips. Sometimes I take her to my sister's for a visit and a meal, or just to the grocery store or for a ride. But yes, I do waste money eating out sometimes.
