Make your self a burger at home. It will be a lot cheaper, taste as good and be as good or better for you.

I have a strict diet which fast food isn't on the docket thankfully. But unfortunately, the food I do eat (lean meat, fish, organic fruit, carb free snacks, etc) is even more outrageous. For example a box of the protein keto cereal I eat is almost ten bucks.

If you didn't laugh in their faces, and tell them to get fricked, you're part of the problem.

Don't pay $80 for 3 mid burgers, drinks, and fries, and whine that someone else was mean for charging you what you're stupidly willing to pay. You're a dumbfrick for paying it.

All of her voters blame corporations for higher prices, not her and Biden. They “need” her to win so she can fight the greedy corporations.

are you serious? How damn big were those teas?


Dead serious, and not in some ritzy part of the country, I’m talking Eunice here. The teas were large and unsweet. Medium fry. $11 and change.

I can remember getting about 10 double stacks for that in high school. Times have changed.

I’ll play devil’s advocate for those that are looking for an alternative to that crazy price tag for fast food.

I went to get a rotisserie chicken and two avacados last week from Walmart. My total was $7.77. I was able to split that into two lunches/snacks over two work days. Gotta find a way somehow to keep the spending in check. With private school for the kid and a mortgage, yada yada yada…

Cheapest glass of tea in my neck of the woods is a $1.99 at WalkOns. Hell, it's $2.59 at Huddle House and many othe eateries around here. That's outrageous.

Paid $6:03 for a large red bean at Popeyes. The serving was a third smaller than it used to be.

Severely overrated and overpriced. I swear all the ones around here hire nothing but special needs people and not the friendly hard working ones either.

That may be true, but doesn't prevent the post from showing how Bidennomics is doing. Your deflection shows how much of a leftie hack you are.

Inflation is real for sure but it's obviously not a problem when someone is paying that much money for burgers ground out of ten year old dairy cows.

We'll know inflation is really taking it's toll when folks stop paying stupid amounts of money for shite like fast food, coffee, foot massages, pedicures, dog grooming and all the other shite in life that doesn't matter.

You know how I know my local economy is booming? People are still lining up to pay 6 frickin' dollars at PJ's and Starbucks for a cup of coffee.

So when there are no more fast food places or dog groomers in my town then inflation will officially be a problem. Got it.

Where are the principles this board professes to cling to?

Here we have a thread where folks are bitching about the price of fast food. They attach that price to "Bidenomics" and then keep buying said fast food, thereby enabling Bidenomics.

The fat frick, middle aged old men on this board would rather bitch about the price of garbage junk food than stop buying it. Anybody spending money like this on drive thru pig feed isn't hurting from "Bidenomics", and that includes the guy who spent 80 bucks at Five Guys. He's doing just fine, and because of people like him, so are the Five Guys.
