Every now and then I drive through the nearest McDonalds while doing other shopping.

My standard fare: two regular cheesburgers and a small fry

Pre—Bidet: $4.75

Post—Bidet: $7.70

That is an increase of 71% in less than two years.

You basically can’t get a hamburger for under $10 at any fast food place now. 70% or so over 2 years seems about right in general.

good gosh, man, isn’t there a wendy’s nearby? their chili is WAY tastier and WAY healthier than the McD’s stuff you treat yourself with ... though probably price increases for that too ...

You're paying nearly 8 bucks for a small bag of potatoes and 2 tiny cheese burgers?

This is why I avoid fast food. It's robbery and has been that way for some years now.
