I'm talking real basic here- cheapest pasta and cheapest spaghetti sauce you can find combined with a can of tuna for a very spartan meal. All you need to do is boil water and heat up the tomato sauce
Also, wait- I thought you guys could get Quarter Pounders for 50 cents or something. What's the point of all the wars then
That's a good question.
Cheap pound of pasta+jar of tomato sauce+can of tuna is around $4 or $5 which is about 2000 calories.
Cheap cheese burger is around $2 which is about 400 calories
McDonald’s combo meal is 10 dollars US
Yep, no more dollar menu. If that doesn’t demonstrate a decline Idk what will, like I’m not joking, the average American is pissed about it. Obviously not enough to do anything about it but McD and BK raising prices has (some) people more pissed than Tax hikes
Same thing in Finland. The "coin menu" where you could get a cheeseburger for 1 euro and a double cheeseburger for 2 euros was a huge institution for years and years. First they raised the prices to 1,20 and 2,20 but during these recent price hikes I'm pretty sure it's like 2+ euros for a regular cheeseburger and 3+ euros for a double cheeseburger. The triple cheeseburger, a semi-frequent menu item used to be priced consistently with the other two cheeseburgers at 3 euros, now it's like 5
I thought you guys didn't have enough freedom to make triple cheeseburgers over there in Finland.
I have been lied to by the State Department propaganda.
