McDonald's used to be the cheap place.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

I'd still say they're the cheapest of the big chains. An article came out a week or so ago saying a meal was $18 but that was at a specific McDonalds at some rest area off a major highway in the NE. The prices in the rest of the country are more normal.

The problem is if you want cheap, you have to use their app and be ok with the deals that are offered. I've resigned myself to the fact that it's probably the cheapest option in the event I forgot to bring my lunch to work. I can get a double cheeseburger and a 6pc nuggets for $4. It's not much variety but it's something in a pinch.

If you're not using the app, then their prices are criminal compared to what they used to be.

But it hasn’t been actual food in decades.

Why do you want to eat cheap food? Do you honestly have no other alternative that putting this garbage into your body is worth it?

It’s a net loss as far as I am concerned. You put this crap into your body and eventually you’ll be paying out of your ass in medical bills.

Take better care of yourself.

You: "No one is allowed to academically ask anything and I'll attack you if you do."

You: “I like to eat shitty over priced food while I complain about shitty over priced food being too expensive. I am the victim of myself.”

ROFL nothing here is “academic”.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Actually I don't eat it or any fast food. It's literally completely academic discussion from my end.

Funny that you had to attack again. I see the trend. Ciao.

You keep using the word academic but it’s clear you don’t know what it means
