The replies here are crazy. Mom, Pop, and two kids getting hit by McDonald's for $30. You used to be able to get McChickens and Double Cheeseburgers off the dollar menu. I remember it being a lifeline for broke teens. We need a burgers-per-labor-hour inflation metric.

I go to McDonalds a couple of times a year just for the nostalgia of it. My order is always the same, a Big Mac "value" meal and a 6 piece chicken nugget. Last trip it was just under $15.
Sadly it transitioned to microwave dinners, then mac and cheese, and now we are at Mr. Noodles. Next step ketchup packets
The 2 best inflation metrics:
-The Big Mac Index
-The 2x4 Index
Aside from political reasons, I'd remove McDs and similar fast food joints from the diet. There have been proper studies saying that fast food not only contain hormones and antibiotics but trace amounts of industrial chemicals called phthalates. I've got to imagine these "trace" amounts compound over time and wreak havoc on us and our kids internally. It's unhealthy "food".
No empire lasts forever.
stop at Taco Bell because their $1 & $2 items aren't bad and since I'm freaking old, over 40, free drink
@npub1sn0w...jdv9 heathy choice frozen dinners I found one box in the trash can I cleaned last night. A probation officer in Indiana bought them and I was forced to scan his groceries at martins super markets when I worked there. The cop who tried to pull me over last night harassing me found that information or someone did. I emailed the police chief where Lloyd Waddell is again cuz I've had enough.
According to the anthropologist Dr. Staffan Lindeberg, who studied the Kitavans in Papua New Guinea, sweet potatoes made up about 70-80% of the Kitavans' diet.
Probably cheaper than a McDonalds diet, and the photos of those guys (surprisingly to me) showed they were super healthy
No I'm not a vegan
Just pointing out that there are better cheaper options to get by on
I stopped trying to grow wheat for myself when I realized I could get by on tubers.
My life got soooo much easier
