All fast food seems to have gotten really expensive, but why does that title say it's 3 items when it's clearly 5?

... paying almost $25 for 3 items

Meanwhile the pic clearly shows the order was for 5 items.

Laura appears to have ordered at a McDonald’s in Australia, given the availability of banana bread on the menu and her reference to the restaurant as “Maccas.”

How do fast food prices in Australia mean that America has failed?

“See, we told you this is what would happen if we started paying service workers a living wage!”

Fast food workers were not in fact paid a living wage and most of their jobs were replaced by kiosks

Also, you ever think about how something like a kiosk or its equivalent could’ve been implemented like a decade ago or some shit

picture has 5 items for $23.45, but the headline says 3 items for $25

EDIT: ok it does say "almost" $25 but I feel like this stock image was lazily chosen

what a fucking shell game the media plays: "the economy is gangbusters! historic low of unemployment! historic wages! inflation is dead (dont count food or gas)!"

"by tarnation we are shocked! shocked i say! that McDonalds has high prices that are bothering regular people. this is a cottage story that only applies to this one specific restaurant and the social media buzz around it"

If I wanted to spend $25 for three items, I could just grab Chinese and leave a generous tip. I swear, I'd practically block a bullet for my local American-Chinese joint at this point.

Rich people when they realize that if living itself is a status symbol, then with all the poors starved to death, they don't have anyone to rub their wealth in their face anymore

Does the increased price mean that they're using higher quality ingredients? Are the nuggets still pink sludge?

why is the coke that much

Yeah I’m on an all carb diet

Just get 8 of the $1 dollar McChickens and eat that like a massive insatiable fucking blackhole.

Why the fuck are you buying banana bread at a McDonalds, apple pie or bust!

Well I can still buy 3 value menu burritos clocking in at a whopping 1600 calories for 6 dollars at Taco Bell, so Checkmate socialists.

who the fuck is buying banana bread from mickey d

Live by the pig slop, die by the pig slop.
