> Dinner takes about 15 mins to prepare, on average.

This doesn't include time to meal plan, grocery shop, and clean dishes. Also, 15 minutes isn't a ton of time, but it isn't nothing.

It also doesn't include the opportunity cost of not doing all that. If getting a meal quick saves stress, time, planning, etc. etc. then it's providing a highly valuable service.

If you truly cannot find 15-30 mins for this, then I have no advice to offer.

For the rest, having your groceries delivered is one solution. Life is about trade-offs.

Maybe we could unionize the tech industry so we have the time to cook healthy meals.

If you're working so many hours that you physically cannot cook for yourself, then you have my sincerest sympathy, but that is not the norm. Speak for yourself.
