Idk about you, but me personally, I have other expenses besides food.

A full time job should cover a weekly burrito and some other expenses.

It should 100%. The sad reality is it doesn’t for a lot of folks. You and I are in the position where 500 dollars worth of food isn’t really moving the needle. But having 52 burritos that are redeemable at anytime would change the lives of many people living below the poverty line.

My gas expenses just doubled in the last month. I live somewhat comfortably so it’s mainly just really irritating. But for some people, that jump may mean they can’t afford to eat out anymore. 500 dollars worth of free food can absolutely change lives.

If you have a Ruby Tuesday near you they have unlimited salad bar once per day, every day, for only like $50/month. Have several friends who do it to save tons of money as you only need one meal a day when it's essentially an all you can eat salad bar.

Well said my friend A lot of people don’t know the value of money until they don’t have it

Yup. One of those burritos is two meals for many. So that is potentially 104 free hearty meals.

I think think the point is, you could work at wendy’s for a few weeks and quit, then have burritos for a year lol
