$25 for fast food for a single person? Two McDoubles, a small fry and a small drink is $11.05 here in Canada. More than enough food for a quick meal.

Eww McDonals. I'd rather just go hungry

I spent roughly 16 USD on my order, I normally got two bacon mcdoubles no onions, a large fry and a large lemonade. This same meal used to be 11/12$ less than 4 years ago

In the US I use the app to get 2 mcchickens and a large fry on Friday for $4. Does the job just fine.

We also have a $5 mcdouble, 4pc mcnugget, small fry and small drink combo. You can't just walk in and order what you want if you want a good price, unfortunately - but theres still some value to be had if you at least try - that $5 combo is on the app, drive through board, and the in store kiosk.

Those arent denominated in the same currency, so direct comparisons of prices are somewhat... fraught.

Dude, $11 CDN is $7.87 USD. If anything, the difference in currency amplifies my point.

Which is why it is fraught. Glad we're on the same page.

Huh... Turns out my understanding of the definition of the word fraught was wrong. Thanks for making me learn something today.
