In my opinion...Fast Food is pricing itself out of existence.
McDonald's used to be the place I went to for a 40 cent hamburger, 25 cent fries, and a 25 cent drink.
Now you're lucky to get a combo meal there for less than $6
Fast food was always supposed to be cheap.
Hell, just a few years back I would go to Arbys and get 5 roast beef sandwiches for $5.
I went there 2 days ago and ordered food for 3 people.
The cost? $31 !!!!
They have raised prices on everything so fast and so high that it's taking them out of their market.
Especially sodas.
When fast food joints are charging $3 for 10 cents worth of soda...people on a budget just can't afford that.
And face it...most "rich" people don't eat fast food.
A lot of McDonald's customer base were people who don't have a lot of extra money and would grab lunch there on lunch break because it was fast and cheap.
No, I don't think it's the "nutritional value" that is hurting them. Most guys who work "real" jobs don't give a fuck about that. The majority of guys working real jobs love to eat wings and drink beer.
McDonalds 1/4 pounder with cheese is "health food" to them. lol
No...I think it's the price.
Why pay that much for crappy fast food when you can basically go to a half decent diner like Dennys or a local family owned restaurant and get much better quality food for the same price.
