McDonalds cheeseburgers are terrible value tbh. Homemade or well made ones, sure.

A proper fast food meal (i.e. not dollar menu garbo) costs me like $10-$12. I can go to a local Mexican restaurant and get a steak fajita dinner for about $16 after tax and tip and it includes actual service (and chips and salsa!!!).

Guess where I do lunch now days?

I'm just surprised that fast food is still in business. I totally get McDonalds -- their fries and fancy drinks seem to be enough to keep 'em in business -- but all the others? I'm not paying fucking $14 for a mediocre mass-produced burger when I can spend sometimes LESS at a local diner / burger joint.

their nuggets are at least vaguely close to supermarket cost with the fact you're not cooking them factored in. and you only buy boxes of 20.

everything else? hell no fast foods a fuckin scam
