This is nuts. A whopper meal is $9.99 where I live which is still nuts.

My son was in California recently doing some work. Taco Bell was $60 for 3 people.

Note how Burger King has to display up pictures of the burgers, with the number of patties, for the illiterate.

Anything to drive sales ...

Of course, the madness of California. Said years ago raising the minimum wage was going to cause everything to go up.

We’re having Schlotzsky’s now. 10 homemade originals using a copycat recipe with their sourdough bun and garlic spread recipes for what 1 costs at the window. Have been making them for 20 years so have saved a ton.

Eat. At. Home!

Jeez...

[jerod]

Exactly... I was looking at the $9.99 add and at first thinking.. That's awesome... Then I thought... $9.99 for a burger, some fries and a watered-downed pop?

That's crazier than a chocolate whopper.

[Bullish]

And have you noticed the fast-food workers seem to just slap things together these days and not care a wit about the food quality? I got two overpriced tacos with hardly anything in them recently. They were literally just 3/4s empty shells with hardly any lettuce and a tiny speck of cheese. It was a FF place called Baker’s here in SoCal that I’ll never ever go to again.

Not that it changes anything about Newscum but that looks like an airport Burger King.

I see there are six
BKs in San Francisco. Two are downtown and the video doesn’t say which of the six it is. It’s true that the minimum wage increase has jacked up the price of fast food in CA, but particularly if the location was one of the downtown ones, this is to be expected. Eating is extremely expensive in SF, particularly downtown and in the tourist areas along the waterfront

A meal of 9 oz baked salmon with broccoli spears, house salad and freshly made bread is $27 in Florida including tax. I tip $5.

[bigbob]

Let ‘em go broke

[dragnet2]

So that shoots a hole through $70 for a family of four to each have a burger.

Lol... Who’s kidding who?

[nevadapatriot]

It’s only $17 if you pay it. Consider the savings if you don’t, money and health

[eyeamok]

I can get a full meal at my local mexican restaurant for that and it is 10 times better and they serve margaritas

[Salman]

But will people pay it?

Some people will, but enough to stay in business? We'll see soon enough.

[samiam5]

What do they call a Whopper?

I don’t know, I didn’t go into Burger King.

[plain talk]

This will fuel the drive to further automation of the fast food industry.

I ordered two Doritos Locos Tacos from Taco Bell this evening. Priced at $2.99 each. Each is supposed to be 170 calories. What I pulled from the wrappers when I got home was nothing like I had received in the past. Skimpy, half-filled. No way that was 170 calories. Both were skimpy. This from Taco Bell in south Pocatello, ID.

Carl's Jr wasn't any better with a Famous Star last week. I could hardly find the meat. The prices are high, portions are skimpy. It's no longer reasonable to patronize these places...even in Idaho without the jacked up minimum wage.

After my Whipple procedure, my digestion is much less efficient. If I don't make 2000 calories with 100 grams of protein, I lose weight. 149.1 yesterday due to missing my calorie targets. I'll miss again today because of being short changed at Taco Bell.

[PIF]

It started at $0.37 in ‘57 then went up from there - same stuff but inflation

Now $15.09 plus tax in Wisconsin

[Vaduz]

In LA a car wash will cost you $30.00 to $50.00 for the delux job.

Illegals are now in fat city at McDonalds you get $15.00 to $20.00 an hour for placing a bag of fries in another bag.
