I’m pretty sure that $80 for lunch in Tokyo is not the least bit unusual. Ever been there? Yikes!!

I remember when 365 yen would buy a dollar’s worth...

I’ve read prices are now fairly similar to their counterparts stateside. A Big Mac is said to be 50% more expensive stateside than in Japan. That’s something I never thought would come to pass.
