Why do posters here suddenly hate capitalism when it involves raising cane’s prices?
Evaluation of cost vs value is a critical component of capitalism.

Wow. This is crazy. It’s as if Canes has to keep their margins while their operating expenses and cost of goods go up. That Todd Graves is a real a-hole!
Right
Everyone complaining works a job where the cost of the good or service they offer has increased over the last few years
Food cost up
Paper cost up
Labor up
Insurance up
Maintenance cost up
Everything up
Tiny tender price up

Friend working at the library sent me this photo from the 1997 LSU Football Media Guide:
Adjusting for inflation, that is 7.59 in today's dollars. It's time we riot

Caniac prices would be worth it if you got 6 tenders that size. But Canes are so small it’s mostly breading
The habanero chicken tender meal is 8.99 (was 6.99 years ago but he was forced to go up due to prices) but the quality and size never faltered.
The meal comes with 2 huge, juicy, flavorful tenders. The breading is crispy and compliments the meat. You get 2 amazing sides, plus a large portion of home made dipping sauce (he's got the best ranch and "cocktail" {kind of a remoulade} sauce I've had).
It's a steal for under 10. His 2 tenders are easily the size of 5-8 of the canes.

This is just before and after taxes price

I’ve been crossing off lots of companies lately for raising prices beyond the value of their product. I guess I’ll have to add Canes to that list.

So we just had a 9 page overreaction. That’s not too bad.

Those prices legit seem twice as high as a decade ago while I was still in school.
shite when I moved to BR in 1998 for my freshman year 5 bucks could get you a 5 finger box that would feed you lunch and dinner because the chicken was huge....now 15 bucks and the fingers are small and they don't taste as good.

That didn't stop 9 pages of people shitting on Canes I'll never understand why Canes, a company founded basically on LSU's campus, gets singled out here
Posted on 12/14/23 at 10:19 am to BilbeauTBaggins
Fatties gonna pay that price!

Cane's is wildly successful.
And like every other business, they are facing increased cost with labor, ingredients, insurance, etc. Their prices are going to go up.
Inflation is a bitch.

When i started at lsu in 2003 the box was $5 even i believe with tax and the snack was $4. That was their thing, making the price with tax come out to a round number
They quit calling the 3 finger a snack box when the price went over $6. Now it's going to be over $10 pre-tax.
Cane's is doing very well and every location I've seen has long lines all the time. More power to them. I like that it's expensive so I won't be tempted to eat it

Btw, haven't had Cane's in 5 or 6 years and that ain't about to change. Charge what you want Todd. They'll keep payin'.

Todd is raking your arse, because rubes keep fricking paying it. It's just like crawfish. Stop lining up for it and prices will go down.
Sounds like he's selling it at the right price then.

My response was to your crying post about having to buy elsewhere because you're poor and you're mad at Todd for being rich.
Weird melt. I'm not poor or mad and don't feel like paying that much to eat at Cane's.
