I was thinking of going to five guys today cause I hadn't been there in forever. They want 10 fucking dollars for a fast food burger. What in the ever living fuck.

Ended up going to mcAlister's next door, which I hadn't done in a while. For almost the same price I got half a rachel loaded with all the free extras, especially their horseradish dijon and the chicken and bacon spud. It was like .80 cents more and just glorious for every bite. On top of that, I could pretend that was 1500 healthy calories, as there's turkey in the rachel. How does five guys stay in business.
Yeah they’ve always been expensive but the recent prices have gotten crazy. Some of the other fast food places are holding on as long as they can, but I think we’re going to see them all raise prices significantly pretty soon as well.

Had to pick up KFC for family dinner. The breast was as small as thighs used to be. The deal that used to fill the bucket pretty well looked like a chip bag half full. Expensive as ever, of course.

Why bother with this shit? We haven't gotten fast food outside of family dinners for months now (and only then because my girlfriend's boomer family are stuck in a vision of America that just doesn't exist anymore, that paying some burnout or 40 year old immigrant making $20 an hour to fuck up conveyor belt food is some sign of middle class values over just letting me cook some be edible food).

Just no point in getting fast food anymore. It's even ruining all nostalgia and sentimental value I ever had (western bacon cheeseburgers in CA on the way home from A's games were the best).

Thankfully there are still some small, local cafe, truck or stand style places that are still good (though also getting expensive). But these giant corporate slophouses can't fail soon enough.

Fried chicken joints have been the shittiest food/value for a long fucking time. KFC has blown monkey dick since they tried to become Kentucky Grilled Chicken and now these faggots sell planet based retard meat and we have dumb fuck shades of gray soiboi retards in this very thread begging to review with their dumb fuck mouth held agape waiting for cock.

If you don't feel like cooking and want some decent Friend Chicken at a not fuck your asshole til it bleeds price go to Publix. Shit is like 1/14th the price of the KFC assbuckets and 30x better as well.

Remember KFC is ran by the same dumb fucks who run TacoBell and Pizzahut. There is a reason all of those places are on the decline and it's because the head faggot in charge at these places has forgotten it's fast fucking food and should be cheap and greasy. Instead these stupid American Inventors want to overcharge and then serve vegan salad, beans, and bugs to your dumbass. Nobody going to Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, or KFC is looking for a healthy meal and if they are they should be beaten with a fucking crowbar and told to eat the fucking grass outside.

KFC ceased to exist the moment they got rid of their potato wedges. Literally the only reason to go there.

i'd say it's comparably priced to kfc, if the kfc menu i just linked for 8pieces and 3sides is 23$ then this

bb326d6173815dbaf31329bd6f347868.png

is the same price w/o the sides if we say large sides are $4+

i'll trust you that the quality has to be better, i'll probably grab me a box next week (already had too much fried food this week)

Yeah, the mistake of KFC is if you actually want chicken. It's all pretty bad there. Better from local grocery store delis most of the time as Booze points out.

They don't even do the 11 herbs and spices anymore. It's like salt and more salt. There was a pretty good podcast on how much the original Col. Sanders hated what they did with his company. He even thought "extra crispy" was an abomination.

No caffeine? Fuckin' faggot ass shit. Way to ruin something that'd otherwise be orgasmic.
Just no point in getting fast food anymore. It's even ruining all nostalgia and sentimental value I ever had (western bacon cheeseburgers in CA on the way home from A's games were the best).
The ONLY reason to go to fast food was for the convenience(out of town, on vacation, end of the work week and you don't feel like cooking, etc.) and cost vs. quantity, not quality. Now that costs are no better than a meal that tastes 5x as good, the only real reason anymore is convenience. It's why Del Taco is the only fuckin' fast food place I've been to in at least 6 months (other than the occasional stop at Taco Bell for that sweet, sweet Baja Blast 0 from the fountain). They're just about the only one still following the mantra of, "$10 of shitass food, but at least there's a fuckin' mountain of it!".

If you want "fast food" that still tastes about as good as "home cooked" for the crazy prices, but the convenience of not having to cook it yourself? I highly recommend your local food trucks. They're usually all "homemade" ingredients and you can call to order ahead. All the functionality of "fast" food, similar pricing, but it tastes a SHITLOAD better. I get 90% of my Mexican food from the local legumers out of taco trucks and it's fucking delicious.

Man I miss their honey BBQ wings they had in the late 80’s and 90’s. We’d go in and the food bar was clean and stocked too.

Once the Dobledown vanished, I was done with KFC. Publix just is better and WAY cheaper for fried chicken. But man I do miss the Doubledown it was fucking delicious.

All the chains that are weighed down with their massive corporate bloat I avoid like the plague... Unfortunately it's a lot of them right now.

In So Cal we had Naugles ( the new one is Naugles in name only). Jesus that was the best.

9 yr old me, and my buddy Jerod Duke, would ride our shit Huffy's down to Naugles everyday for lunch, and then hit up the theatre for another 2 showings of Star Wars back to back. Ahhh Good times.

I lived in SoCal many years and never heard of Naugles. I do miss El Burrito Jr though.
