Just ordered 3 soft tacos and a drink in Canada from taco bell:

$12.50

Holy chit. I wanna get off this ride

In Biden dollars or Trudeau dollars?

Praise white jesus

Taco Bell and other low-tier fast food joints have priced themselves out. They had a good gimmick at being dirt-cheap food, but now you're better off just going to the mom-n-pop places.

my thing is, i remember when the #1 at mcdonalds was $3.39, now its like 8 bucks or something. mcchickens used to be $1 and id always look at the "dolalr menu" now most places dont have any food for $1, and a mcchicken is now $1.99.

closest its gotten to the way it was is now they'll do breakfast sausage muffins $2/3.

but chyea its wild seeing the cost of fast food like a #1 more than double in your lifetime.

No joke I remember picking up certified Angus NY strips for like $15 5 years ago. Now I pay the same for some lettuce, 3 tortillas, 100 grams of "ground beef", and a syrup water thrown together with 30% effort from a subhuman who hates me because I'm a customer.#1 in Canada is now $14, srs.

dude, inflation is not gonna stop until we are paying $50 for a burger

Start going to local spots, you’re being a bigger clown.

Last night I got two meals of goat vindaloo, butter chicken and two orders of garlic naan for 32 bucks. Both meals come with rice and it’s enough for 2 servings.

Plus that was Uber eats, one of the rare times the price is actually worth not driving there yourself.

I swear spicy Indian food is so satisfying at night while laying down and watching a movie after.

Yeah but how can you bang a girl after the movie with a stomach of hot curry waiting to erupt from your Angus like yellow stone?

anal is off the menu

Restaurants are becoming a non-option tbh. Sometimes I'd rather just fast for the day than consider spending north of $15 for an actually filling meal from a fast food joint.

Just got a medium sized ~1100 Cals thin crust Dominos pizza, and it was $17. Thankfully ordering online for takeout comes with a 20% off coupon, so it was closer to $15 after considering taxes and stuff. But then factor in gas and it's probably $16-17 still.

The only exception I've noticed is Taco Bell's "build your own cravings box" for $6. If you're a fatass you can get 2k+ Calories from it. But if I get what I actually like (3 crunchy tacos, 1 nacho bellgrande) it's around the $14 mark again.

If people actually read their credit card statements, they'd be appalled by their food consumption spending every month.

If I forget to bring ny lunch or don’t have time to pack one I’m fasting all day. Don’t care if it’s 8 hours or 18. I’m not spending my money on some junk fast food garbage.

My financial advisor got me to go through my credit and debit card statements years ago with highlighters to show needs vs wasted money. It was a huge eye opener. Stopped the frivolous spending and had over $1000 to add to my investments and savings each month. That’s why the younger generations are all poor and can’t afford houses, spending hundreds if not thousands each month on fast food, coffee and other crap they don’t need.
Don’t even get me started on vehicle finance payments

As long as people keep voting democrat, inflation is going to keep skyrocketing with no end in sight.
