If a bill value is small, and you paid it in bitcoin on chain, you will pay very expensive on chain transaction fee. It would be especially expensive if you use centralized exchanges, platforms and submit your withdrawal from those platforms for your payment for food.

When was the last time you made a transaction on the BTC blockchain? People who talk like you seem to live in the past, because today's on-chain transactions cost less than $0.50 (currently only $0.15).

Have any of you ever ordered food and paid with Bitcoin? If yes, ho
w did it feel?

I've never paid for food with BTC, but I've paid for a lot of other things like smartphones, computers, TVs, and the like - and I have to admit that it feels good to use BTC as currency, because that's what it's meant for. Unfortunately, most of the people who invest in BTC have never bought anything or paid for a service with it, but that is still a matter of choice for each individual.
Just like you, I’ve never really used Bitcoin to pay for food either but I’ve paid for some other things like phones, gadgets and even some online services with BTC and to be honest, there’s a certain satisfaction that comes with it. Every time I make payments for goods or services with Bitcoin, it feels like I’m not just making a payment but actually living out one of the core ideas Satoshi had when he created Bitcoin which is using it as a digital currency for peer-to-peer transactions.

That little moment of sending Bitcoin no matter how small, always gives me that sense of fulfillment like I’m contributing in my own way to what Bitcoin was meant to be. Hopefully, many more people especially members of the forum who are yet to use Bitcoin in making payments joins the trend.
