Anonymous(25-29)+1 yFastfood. I’m mean, I like a lot of it but the fact it’s so expensive doesn’t make sense. $23 for just a cheese (nothing but cheese and tomato sauce on top!) pizza at Pizza Hut, $12 for a burger menu at McDonald’s, $3.14 for the smallest bag of fries and then another $1.14 if you want a dipping sauce or mayo with that at Burger King and it’s the tiniest amount to. And they keep raising their prices, charge $0.76 for an extra slice of cheese but of course don’t reduce the price if you order it without certain ingredients. McDonald’s happy meals continue to increase in price but they made their burgers/buns smaller without disclosinh that and almost always just have paper ”toys” nowadays if they even include toys at all - sometimes they’re ”sold out” but the price remains the same. They used to blame Covid for delayed or missing shipments but now they don’t make even mention anything at all or just say it’s to help the environment. Which is bullshit because of course it’s done on purpose to increase profit. And paper toys to young kids last about 30 seconds at best. It’s making me pissed hoenstly.

Fast Food prices always increase during times of inflations, but prices have always been inflated. The general rule of thumb for restaurants is to charge 3 times as much as they're paying for their ingredients, but a lot of the time they charge even more than at. In the end, it's all about making money.

Where do you live? Here in the central US, a large one-topping at pizza hut is $10 and a McDonald’s cheeseburger is less than $1.

+1 yCornish king crabs. They used to be called spider crabs and were considered a major pest by lobster fishermen because they can carpet the sea floor and have next to no meat on them.
Then someone thought spider doesn't sound good let's call them Cornish king crabs and charge dumbfuckers a fortune.31 Reply

Sure, I understand the skill and sources costs - even know a few professional chefs - but when you have restaurants charging you something like 50-200% markup for fries and staple foods, it's just blatant price gouging,
Sure, daft people with money will happily pay the high price. But it has a wider effect in making other stores and outlets feels they too should raise prices to "not appear too cheap"

+1 yLobster; it’s not good at all by itself and it’s barely palatable with dips, dressings and sides. Same with crab. I can’t tell you how many people i’ve met who claim they won’t eat tilapia because it’s a bottom feeder, but absolutely luv lobster and crab. They’re ALL bottom feeders!

+1 ySteak. I've had burgers and pasta that deserved to be more expensive than things like steak/lobster/caviar/wagyu/oysters
24 Reply- +1 y
steak/lobster/caviar/wagyu/oysters are expensive because of all the work that is done. You lobster and oyster are very difficult to catch and not everyone can do it like fishing. Caviar! A few Sturgeon fishes have that good quality of their eggs and the fish it self is/are rare. Same thing goes foe the wagyu! It is very rare and the quality is out of this world. I agree on how ridiculous expensive they are, but there is a reason. Once i tasted a red wine bottle where 7 people had to chip in to buy it. It was smooth and tasted very nice. Why so expensive? Because they have professionals that keeps the bottle in good quality for 20 years or more, staff, place, time, etc. I would pay more money on a smoked brisket than i put on caviar, yes 👍

That's because probably the steak where you live is shite. Taste an Irish steak or an Argentinian steak... Steak from places that are well suited for beef production and then tell me...

You can't beat qualities when you know it. Raised in a farm till 11, I know the taste of real fresh fruits, veggies, meat, eggs... etc..
Then here in America, they processed everything... they salt everything and process the hell out of what's left of real food... its all junk. No wonder I wouldn't eat school food or street corner pizza since I was a kids and had no idea why. Not even Italian food from NY or "steaks" in restaurants. People roll their eyes when I said no, I don't eat pizza.. smh.
Till I tasted pasta from fresh flour, you chew it an it reminded me of my childhood noodle. Eggs, we have found local farmers who raise chickens. We also found our meat from a different farmer. Fish as well, wild caught from the dock. There is no way I would eat "meat" from the supermarket... or "burgers" what the heck are burgers? There is one place I tried and I know they ground their meat with no other add ons... so I can taste the meant... not just this "juicy" burger top with loads of stuff that you no longer taste the meat... not that I want to taste the poor quality burger meat.
There are only 38 certified Wagyu restaurants... so be careful with what you are paying. Its amazing... just melts in your mouth. well worth the money.
I am willing to pay for quality. I would not want food that's free or cheap.

+1 yI do not understand why people think lobster is worth $80 at a restaurant. I buy cheap lobster by ordering in bulk, it’s $400 for 10-20 pounds but we freeze it and only use it for special days like Christmas or new years. Ours has lasted over a year and I don’t even member when we bought it.

That's because that salmon was probably frozen with lots of other fish. If you get salmon properly stored it tastes amazing
