Fast food's too expensive even without delivery expenses these days. Makes me sad.
I went to Chick Fila to get the pimento cheese and chicken sandwich.
I got the combo. Comes with fries and a drink.
$13 and change.
Got 2 double cheeseburgers and a coke at mcds, $12
That used to be less than $6. Like 5 years ago.
It's more and more expensive to fund bigots these days
There's no ethical consumption under capitalism. Let's not judge others by the food they eat, that doesn't do anything but divide us further.
That phrase applies more to things you can't reasonably stop consuming, like plastics.
There are a few exceptions where there's one capitalist producer who is significantly more divisive than the alternatives, and switching costs are extremely low.
Might as well buy blood diamonds and clothes made by child slaves. No ethical consumption derp durrrr hurrrr I so smart
Cool whataboutism, bro
Cool strawman, bro.
This thread is about inflation and price gouging. It is not about individual corporations political leanings.
Literally not a strawman.
How dare I mention a side topic!
Get over yourself.
lol that's literally a strawman.
Denying the truth doesn't make it go away.
Cheers bud.
Have fun with your illiteracy while glibly funding bigots.
Have fun blindly funding other bigots while judging people over arbitrary bullshit.
Enjoy the benign prison you've crafted for yourself.
Have fun creating your own special brand of prejudice
I hope you don't have any children you've fed any Gerber products. Or any haagen dazs ice cream. Or kit Kats, or Perrier sparkling water, or feed your pets Purina, Alpo, friskies, or use tidy cats kitty kitter. Hope you don't enjoy smarties, or shredded wheat cereal, consume literally any frozen foods that weren't produced by a local company, use toll house chocolate chips, or consume any cookies that do (most). I hope you don't sleep on a purple mattress, or enjoy in n out. Hope you're not drinking any Bullit Bourbon. Or Budweiser. Or Stella. Or becks. Or Busch. Or corona. Or fosters. Or goose island. Or wicked weed. Or Michelob. Or miller.
Hope you don't own any Sony products. Or apple. Or Samsung. Or Huawei.
Hope you've never flown American Airlines. Hope you've never bought anything from Victoria's secret, McDonald's, Walmart, Applebee's, amazon, JCPenney, Verizon, sprint, Starbucks, or Wendy's. Home Depot. Toyota. Motorola, FedEx, UPS.
Hope your bank isn't affiliated with fidelity investments, jpmorgan chase, Wells Fargo, Citi group, or PNC. Or.. boa, td, or... any bank. I hope you don't use banks.
Dipshit.
Go on, keep making our world more divisive by judging anyone who has given any money to any of those institutions. Or go live off the grid and stfu.
Your ISP certainly donated to the GOP over the last decade; get off the internet.
OK, I get it, you're a bigot.
get off the internet. Your ISP donated to the GOP. You're supporting bigots.
Oink oink bigoty pig
Unable to deal with the cognitive dissonance of trying to marginalize someone for eating chik fil a because it supports bigots over the internet, the internet which is provided to you by companies that also support bigots, you resort to childish name-calling.
I'm just going to report you at this point. Cheers 🍻
What do you call someone who defends bigots? A bigot!
Guess that makes you a bigot.
"No U?" Brilliant work there, Bigoty McBigotpants.
Yes. Sorry I've confused you. It really was pretty straightforward, though.
I'm going to block you now, because it's clear you're a low value user to interact with.
I'm sure you'll respond with something to scream into the void, because you're quite clearly the kind of person who needs to feel like they've won a conversation, and you can't feel that way unless you get the last word.
Just know it will be read by no one.
I'm not even bothering to read your bigotry defense.
Dude I just spent like 17$ on subway
It's the worst!
Yes, Subway is the worst! Why are you buying it?
Unlimited fresh vegetables, and a good range of them, is pretty unique in the fast food scene. It may be getting pricey but it’s a good slightly healthy meal if you make good use of the vegetable topping. Don’t be like a child and just get a ham sandwich with no vegetables, that’s not what subway is for and yea it’s a terrible idea if you’re just getting meat cheese and a condiment
+$10 for pretty much every meal now. I guess fast food is trying to curb American’s fast food addiction by pricing them out of it.
Nothing is worse than my 3 piece Popeyes combo with fries and a Dr. Pepper going from $7.49 to $15 over 4 years.
Child war slaves are worse
But I get what you're saying
Yeah but can you dip child war slaves in ranch?
Of course!
McDonald's it's still pretty good if you use the app. When I forget to bring lunch I get two spicy chicken sammies and a large drink for like $5 and you get points for free shit too. Not an ad but there are genuinely good deals in there if u just want cheap sustenance.
This comment is not really about you, but I really hate the McDonald's app. The McDonald's app has been super frustrating to use. It acts like it is loading a huge database. Each selection results in a 10 to 20 seconds wait for the next. Often selections don't register.
Taco Bell's app is great too use.
Weird I've had the complete opposite experience. Taco bell app is garbage and mcds is perfect haha
Probably different os and/or devices
Both are garbage peddling garbage.
Don't worry, our bodies are thankful in the end!
