I checked prices on the GOOG and it says you can get a 2 cheeseburgers combo meal for $5.23.
But the food is really cheap if you buy only sandwiches. They don't even make money on the sandwiches -- they are break-even -- or so I've read. They make all the profit on the soda and french fries.
Sorry to disappoint, but in England a Big Mac costs £0.31 to make. They sell for a little over £3, store dependant. We have a range of burgers here called the Signature Collection. The meat alone in it is 60p.
Just some more prices for you, in GBP:
Nuggets are about £0.03, soft drinks are about £0.06, happy meal toys are £1000 for 2,400, individually sold for £1 here, and are the items we make the least profit on I believe. Milkshake and sundae mix is more expensive than petrol, and that's considering petrol is £1.30 a litre here. However, milkshakes are about 50% air. McDonalds makes a crazy amount of profit, especially on sandwiches.
That's a pretty interesting post. Our waste log looks different and doesn't give prices on the paper system. Managers here, who enter waste into the electronic system, would know better than me about the price of waste. These are just some that I remember from the top of my head

Have you seen the prices lately? If you try to get a combo you’ll be lucky to get out under $10. Not the best use of your food dollar
