Yeah, I always heard in my youth that McDonald's is the poor's restaurant (in the US at least). However it was never really the case e.g. in Hungary. It was always average priced at best. You can eat far better for far less in every moderate-sized town.

In the US you can get a burger and fries for $2 with their in-app promotions. On a per-calorie basis, it's actually very competitive with cooking yourself.

Dang, it's like around 10-15 AUD here. Best eating out calories to dollars is probably domino's cheap line of pizzas

In Denmark you pay DKK 101 (USD 14,20) for a big mac meal with fries and a soft drink. It tastes a lot cheaper than that though.
