Taco Bell still best value in fast food

Plus it has lower carbs and higher fiber than average fast food

You can’t get that much food for under $7 at any other place

Reading the Scott Pilgrim comics and seeing the grocery prices and wide availability of vegan stuff when it was written

my first job was minimum wage, and i earned the same as 4.8 BK Whoppers an hour. today, some 30 years later, minimum wage where i grew up earns 3.3 BK Whoppers an hour. this represents a reduction of 31.3% in minimum wage value according to the Burger Index.

used to be all the fast food drive thrus had mostly cheap options. then they got pricier, but added value menus for a la carte cheap options. then the value menu prices went up, because they wanted you to download an app that sells all your personal and social network/communication information while tracking your movements perpetually. at a certain point, the only value proposition is for people who are just too tired to figure out food and too harried to get out of the car to walk into a fast casual for the same price point.

taco bell is the last one standing for cheap drive through food, but their soda markup is horrendous. $3.20 for 9 cents of syrup in a 11 cent cup. that’s definitely one of their money makers is people getting beans and rice at cost but paying 30x for Pepsi’s latest Pancreas Blaster

We used to be a country!

that’s like 1.07 per layer smh

I got one a month ago for free and they put a teaspoon worth of meat in it
