Used to be the Double Cheeseburger was $1, then they took away one slice of cheese and called it McDouble hoping you wouldn't notice.
$1.08 after tax. My poor food back in my 20s.
I remember. McChicken was a dollar too.
Two bucks and you were fat and happy.
Now the only food under $3.19(can't even be bothered to round down to $3 even) is a small fry for (checks Internet for prices) $2.89, or apple slices for $1.39.
McChicken and McDouble are $3.60 each. The same two sandwiches would cost $7.20!
That's not inflation, it's greed.
And yet there's always a line 🤦♂️
