Home cooking. It is super easy and about 100x healthier. Don't know how? Get the America's Test Kitchen Best Skillet Recipes book. Lots of super easy things in there. Once you get in the habit you really only have to do it 3-4 times a week, and there are lots of frozen meals.

What would someone do if they didn't cook their own meals? Hire a butler? Just get takeaway for their entire lives?

That would be mental. Everyone, except the truly weird - or in special situations, home cooks the majority of the time, right? O.o

Eat microwave food. Or "remove foil and put in oven" food. I wouldn't call that home cooking.

Yeah just walk through Costco and see the massive varieties of ready to eat stuff. But a ton of people here just eat out all the time too.

I got tired of cooking and eat our a lot more nowadays, yes.
