$15 min per person

How fat are you/ what are you ordering? I just price checked it. An original chicken sandwich, med fry, and med drink combo (over 1000 calories) is $9.50 at my local CFA.

I’ve found Whataburger to be cheap, relatively. Last time I went, my sweet n spicy bacon burger combo was $12.

Then go to the store and get 2 lbs. of ground beef for around $10, a pack of 8 burger buns for under $5, a couple tomatoes and a head of iceberg lettuce and you've got 8 burgers for around $20.




I'm no math scholar, but you kinda proved the other guy's point about cooking your own burgers instead of spending $15 on one fast food burger.

That's a lot of calories for one meal. Now add 560 calories for fries.

Kahuna Burger is better than Whataburger. My friend Brett used to eat it every day.

Right? I was thinking that maybe they lived in NY, but that isn't the case.

OK Einstein, so you'd rather spend $15 for a single burger, order of fries and a soda instead of $20 for 8 hamburgers.

If so, I get it--------------------you've got more money than sense.

You can get very close to your daily recommended calories with one WB meal.

So looking at it that way, it’s a bargain.

Now do Taco Bell. I can get cheaper Mexican food at a sit-down Tex Mex place.


Taco Bell has gone insane. It was never great quality, but at least they were dirt cheap. They’ve been worse than anyone on the price increases.
