The runaway inflation raging under Joe Biden’s failed presidency has gotten so bad that some Americans are being priced out of eating at McDonald’s.
Exacerbating the situation in California is the new $20-an-hour minimum wage, which has forced many fast food chains — once considered an affordable meal option — to anger customers by hiking prices.
This is the second time in three months the Golden State has raised its minimum wage. In January, the state increased the minimum wage to $16 an hour from $11.
A TikTok user lamented that she had paid more than $25 for a 40-piece Chicken McNugget meal, which included two large fries but no soda.
McDonald’s meal deals have historically come with a drink and fries.

Which is why I always tell them NO ICE and fill the cup..I put ice in it when I get home but usually don’t need it.
California and McDonalds, two entities that deserve one another.
Ray Kroc is turning over in his grave.
nuggets got smaller. about half the size they were 15 years ago.
When he was around, the US was still the US and McDonalds used normal ingredients.
I have been told that app collects all sorts of data on you.
the deals come at a price.
The Cold War and Communist subversion never really ended. If you look at the Marxist countries in our hemisphere, you will find that both China and Russia are providing military and financial aid. Those two countries, and their Marxist and radical Islamic allies, seek the conquest of what used to be called the Free World. Leaders who appear inept such as Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden have advanced the Communist agenda by providing financial aid and support, including most favored nation status with China. The Monroe Doctrine is a dead letter even as we have open Communist governments in Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela and Marxist aligned leaders in both Canada and Mexico. Unless something is done in the near future, the prophecy of Vladimir Lenin that the United States would fall as the last target of Communist World takeover will become reality.
I used to work at McD’s when I was going through college.
I learned some stuff about it.
Particularly, don’t tick off the help.
Every fast food “restaurant” I know of in California has self service drinks - they’ll hand you a cup and that’s about it.
Come to think of it - they now all have ordering off a kiosk as well - and/or they encourge customers to order online.
When I was a kid we could get a coke and bag of peanuts for a Quarter.
My money says they will.

You can’t save a people who would view any attempt to save them as an hostile act.
Thanks for posting that. I’m of the age where I remember similar prices.
Locally in Phoenix, AZ McDonald’s is running a 20 for $6 special.
Their value drinks are actually not bad compared to the competition ($1.50 vs. $2.50 at most others, although Wendy’s has free senior soft drinks).
McD isn’t even real food. No one should eat that garbage. Ever.
This is all about killing the fast-food industry. Higher prices will lower demand in CA. The fast food industry will raise prices across the nation to subsidize CA stores. And other states will follow suit with min. wage hikes soon, also.
I used to love Big Macs....no more.
Used to be in recent times you could get lunch for 5 BUCKS!
GONE are the days of the 15c hamburger.
Believe it or not, this could be the beginning of the end for all fast food restaurants.
As it could be for Big Box stores.
The degradation of society is destroying our country.
“This is a “family pack” for like 6 people.”
Sad truth is this is probably a baby momma lamenting the fact that it now costs her $25 to feed her various progeny.
Once chaperoned a 3rd grade field trip to NYC. Kids were asked to pack a completely disposable lunch, no glass, etc.
One feral kid boarded the bus at 630 am carrying a McD’s cheeseburger happy meal. Yes. His parent(s?) bought it for him the previous day.
I wouldn’t care except we wind up paying the medical bills of these slobs.
Shakes: 20c but, “Sorry, our shake machine is down”
I think the ice costs more than the drink.
