That’s the same price as a succulent Chinese meal.

I have no clue how they don’t get it. The selling point of fast food was always the speed, convenience and a price. They’ve been degrading all 3 of those selling points and now it’s just not fucking worth it anymore.

But like it’s nothing new, I don’t belive I’m the only one, that for the last few years, every price hike just started picking less and less form the menu. And I’m not poor, far from it, I can definitely afford the price hikes, it’s just, once it’s 8x times more expensive than home cooking, the convenience no longer outweighs the shit ass quality. I hate paying as if I was at a fancy place and getting pure shit, might as well just go to a fancy place for fucks sake!

They almost doubled the price of their stuff. No fucking way I am paying that. I’ll pack my own sandwiches…

I already do. And I work construction so we live on fastish food. Wasn’t easy to transition but I now bring my own thermos with a pot of coffee in it and a small snack or lunch everyday. I’ve saved probably over a thousand bucks this year already. And spent exactly 0 minutes waiting in drive-thrus which I’ve realized now I really really hated doing that.

Since finally taking the time to actually budget out my spending, I’ve become big on packing sandwiches. I spend about $20 a week on sandwich things, which good luck getting 2 meals out of that same budget eating out

“Why are our sales plummeting?”

Because you didn’t spend any part of that price hike on improving the quality of your food.

Subway… Selling sandwiches that don’t contain actual bread,. Does not contain actual cheese. And does not contain actual meat. But DOES contain more odd chemicals than DOW Chemacals makes

And when you walk in they ask you how to make a sandwich

Ironic in that they bake their own bread in the actual store daily.

Isn’t their bread considered cake in Europe due to the sugar content? Or is that just one of those stories?

It was considered to be cake by regulatory authorities in Ireland.
