I agree with the people saying that being able to cook for yourself should be considered a key skill. My birthday meal when I was a kid was called a jigs dinner and if my grandma hadn't taught me how to make it her way then it would have been lost. Having that said. We are talking about eating out, which is a thing that humans have been doing for awhile. I can get a feature meal at McDonald's for just over $15. Across the street I can get a half pound jalapeno burger with onion rings and a beer for about $20. We need to start giving value to small businesses. Because they do produce quality and value.

Learning to cook at home is a great skill and talent.

$25 for fast food for a single person? Two McDoubles, a small fry and a small drink is $11.05 here in Canada. More than enough food for a quick meal.

During these trying times I just get 2 hot dogs from Sam’s. Can’t beat $3 lunch.

Also Lemmy: Corporate earth-destroying health-destroying cheeseburger cost $1 more 😭😭😭

Use. Your. Ovens.

I started getting gyros instead. It’s fast, as cheap as fast food used to be a couple years ago, and tastes better. Plus, it’s a local restaurant and not a national chain.

It's called I'm at work, I'm in some godforsaken suburb on the other side of the hills, and I have 30 minutes.

The downtown experience: $45 burger with a side of truffle fries. It's mediocre at best.

Lately, instead of picking up a fast food buyer and fries for $13, I've been going to Chili's. They have a $10.99 special that is a REAL bacon cheeseburger, excellent fries, and a drink, and it even includes a salad or a cup of soup. With tax and tip, it's $15.

The last time I went to 5 Guys, it was $24.50, and it wasn't nearly as good.

Yeah, prices went up and the quality went down. The best thing to do is stop buying there. As multiple people already pointed out, you can get a lot more and better food for 25 bucks.

The fast food chains forgot that they aren’t actual restaurants. The customers have to remind them. Aaaaaaaand that’s the problem.

In & Out is still cheap, but the line is regularly all the way around the block where the place is at every location, so it's hard to say it's fast food.
