When I was in college, I could fill up on three bean burritos at Taco Bell for $1.81 out the door. Del Taco was cheaper at $1.50.

That was thirty years ago, but still. I don't know how to explain it, but it felt a whole lot easier to dig up that kind of pocket change back then than it does to dig up whatever it costs today.

Now it's 3-4 bucks per burrito here. And it's still garbage food.
