WTF is up with Fast Food?

Ten bucks for a honky burrito? Dang. It just sounds retarded. I go to this local place for a kick ass "Super" burrito - choice of meat, beans, rice, salsa, cheese, avocado and they're friggin' YUUUUGE. All for about 6 bucks.

Yes, but you are in North Mexico. That type of food is ubiquitous.
 
Its not only fast food places, its also mid level and family sit down restaurants.

Even the cheap local ethnic places I go to are price gouging.
 
Escanaba, Munising, Christmas, Mackinac City, then down the west shore. Too many small towns to remember off the top of my head.
That’s a nice road trip.

Yep! Usually those "hole-in-the-wall" places have really good authentic food at bargain prices! :nod: :hungry:

I was gonna call it a hole in the wall, but they have something like, 15 locations in the area.
 
Had a restaurant ribeye while on vacation last month. Sorry, but I cook beef better most restaurants I've ever been to.

Steak is something I rarely order at a restaurant for the same reason... I do it better than they do.

But if my company is paying... bring on the Ribeye.

Nothing wrong with having 15 "hole-in-the-wall" locations in your area... IF they're GOOD! :biggrin:
 
not all restaurants are created equal. went to some nice places on vacation last month and shit was fucking fantastic.

Some of the best steak places I've been to were in Monterrey, MX. Mochomos and Sonora Prime. When traveling for work, bring on the tomahawk.
 
Never seen one of those.

not many locations right now, but it's essentially the same as every other quick "mexican" place


but my kid likes their nachos, so we go there.

went to oahu last month. fish of the day every day without fail was mahi mahi. friend who lives out there says it's always the case.
 
If I go to McDonalds, a Quarter Pounder with Cheese, medium fries and a soft drink now costs around $15. If I go to my butcher and ask him to cut a nicely marbled 12 oz. rib-eye steak, to toss on my grill, it will cost around $15.

WTF is up with fast food????? Are they fucking nuts?????????
Two Taco Bell bean burritos with added sour cream and a Pepsi just over $8 . One of my mobile go to lunches. Had a Rubios fish taco especial and a topo chico recently and that was $20 but included 20% tip. A bit pricey for the Rubios. Del Taco 3 Chicken Rollers and my own water just over $6. My number #1 cheap fast food item are those Del Taco chicken rollers but there are no more Del Taco’s in the Bay Area. Got these in Rocklin yesterday coming back from Hot August Nights.

Looks like the closest to me is Chicago.

When traveling for work, bring on Hooters. I know the food sucks, I just like to expense it.
