    I cook dinner 95% of the time and honestly, it sucks. I don’t blame people who have the money eating out constantly, but i can’t afford that crap and i would be 300 lbs.

    $25 can get me either a terrible pasta dish at olive garden, or 2 meals at a local diner, so i usually go to local small places. Screw $15 burrito’s and $18 hamburgers, i’ll make them at home.

    Not just food, it’s the new business model. Just give them something for their money, it doesn’t have to be good, or work properly, it just has to be profitable.

    I stopped eating most fast food for this exact reason.

    funny how all the local places are still tasting just as great yet corpo places are slinging literal shit for food.

    What even is the point of fast food now?

    • ✅ Fast (edit: sometimes)
    • ❌ Good
    • ❌ Cheap

    It has jumped the shark and serves no purpose now, other than screwing working class people in food deserts out of their hard-earned money.
