What about the gallon-of-gas to price-of-a-Big-Mac ratio?

It held within a few pennies of 1:1 from the time I was in high school till the time I stopped eating Big Macs, which was at least 20 years later.

Unfortunately, I don't know what a Big Mac goes for these days. Well, I withdraw the word unfortunately.

Well, since Big Macs ARE a petroleum product, this must be some Soros driven devaluation of the Mac caused by dumping the Euros he thought he would corner. Or something like that.

Dont forget to account for the shrinking big mac.

I remember when they were too big for a childs hands.
