      This is more than just Wendy’s, fast food in general is through the roof now. McDonald’s was known for years for its dollar menu, they no longer have a dollar menu it’s a $1 $2 $3 menu and the only thing on there that is a dollar is sauces. Fast food restaurants are doing a damn good job at pricing themselves out of the market. I can’t remember the last time I went to your typical fast food joint, it’s almost always more cost effective to go to a place that offers carryout and just order it ahead. My current go to has been Domino’s, I can spend $18 dollars for two burgers a large fry and a drink or I can spend $18 getting 2 pizzas or 1 pizza and cheesy bread or for $4 for more for two pizzas, a thing of chicken and a 2 Liter soda,

        There’s a hole-in-the-wall taqueria near my work that for less than $4 will nab me two gigantic legit-mexican-street-food style tacos.

        Haven’t gone to fast food in ages - shit’s too expensive. At this point I’m probably around 30% taco.
