Sounds like it's gone up a smidgen since the last time me and my employer's CFO were ranting about all the taxes being paid out…. METRO, Mult. County tax, state "corporate activity" tax, state income tax, city of Portland tax, etc etc…. not to mention Federal tax.15.2%
One could also argue it's because of the velocity of the "exit", depending on which venue it was "quickly" obtained from.The reason it is called fast food is not because of the speed of the delivery of the food ....
But because of the speed of which it empties your wallet....

I did a Mr. Wolf last week. Starbucks to meet a gal.. Good coffee!Kyboshed all fast-food last July, I don't miss it, recently broke up with my occasional BR coffee too, $7.00 for a coffee with steamed milk in it? Hell to the EFF no. I was tempted to stop in for a Latte yesterday but just couldn't bring myself to pay seven dollars, for a medium no less.
Those prices seem (relatively) reasonable, but I marvel at all the lemmings waiting in those lines of cars that have stretched out through and down the streets of Kaiser Station requiring someone to set up "special lanes" and direct NORMAL traffic through the intersections (otherwise it'd be total grid-lock)….. all for a STUPID hamburger?
McDonald's disputes this: "Here are the facts: All of our burger patties in the U.S. are always made with 100% USDA-inspected beef. That's the only ingredient: 100% real beef. Our patties contain no preservatives or fillers, and the only thing we ever add is a touch of salt and pepper when the patties are sizzling hot on the grill."
Garbage in, garbage out.In and out is much better than McDonald's and roughly the same price.
Animal beast mold is where it's at.Oh I forgot the best part of In and out Burger, you get a sense of entitlement by ordering off the "secret" menu.
They're pretty decent fast food. Them & Chick Filet.In and out is much better than McDonald's and roughly the same price.
It's unfortunate that we don't have a CFL down south.They're pretty decent fast food. Them & Chick Filet.
We rarely do FF, not routine. As in every few months, if even that much.
An extra $5.35 just for cheese?On my way home a couple of weeks ago I just wanted to do a quick lunch. So I ran the drive through at my neighborhood Burger King.
Voice in the speaker asked if I want cheese on the Whopper. Sure, I said. It cost me an extra $5.35!!!
Next time I'll just go home and get a slab of Kraft out of the frig.
SIX PAGES?! All I got to say about fast food these days is Crap-In-The-Box, and Burger King, being pretty much two of the only three places we used to go, served us crap food for the last time several years ago. They are all dead to us now, except for McDonalds. Wifey orders on line getting whatever discount she can using the drive through. We only get a couple of McDoubles and a large fry to split. That's plenty for the two of us for lunch with a drink we bring, usually energy drink. For the food we're into that less that $6.00. Over my many years eating fast food it came to the point where it seems consistency of the food from visit to visit became terrible. And a LOT of the annoying, incessant advertising, is another reason.I know it's not the healthiest choice, but I've been known to indulge in the occasional fast food binge every now and then.
Back in the day (late 90s), I could do so for a few bucks, because Burger King Whoppers were 99 cents.
I went by BK the other day for the first time in years, and - lo and behold, the Whopper is now more than $8… for just the sandwich
WOW.
