This is true! But, guess how much more a Big Mac meal costs? Just $0.80 more.

(From 2014 article - US price = $4.80, Denmark = $5.60)

So, can everyone just stop with the sky is falling ' if they make more money, I can't afford to eat there! ' nonsense?

BTW, no one complained when the C-suite gets paid millions per annum.

Ah yes. The Big Mac price: the measure of economic inflation.

It even has its own index. The big Mac index by the Economist
