I hate how I feel guilty for spending money on food

Whenever I spend money on takeout instead of eating something frozen at home or going to the store to get groceries, I feel guilty because that's money I also need for the most basic things like bills, insurance, whatever. I hate how the people in charge get all the benefits and have so much extra money, while people like me are so underpaid that I feel bad for spending money on literally just a sandwich or something. I totally understand the argument that you should be careful spending money on stuff like takeout, clothes, movies, or other expenses. But also like…it's so basic, society shouldn't even be in a place where that's an issue.
