Yeah, fuck that noise. I took my kids to Wendy's the other day and their food was $32. Fuck off with this shit. Even fancy places charge less for two kids meals.
I live very close to a wendy's. Some of my friends say they'd eat there all the time if they lived where I live. I also live walking distance from a grocery store. It's cheaper and only takes a couple extra minutes.
Making food at home is the cheapest option
I’ve literally had a cheaper bill at a full on sit down restaurant a few times now. The only time we eat at fast food anymore is if we’re traveling and it’s a quick choice.
It's fucking crazy. I don't normally eat out, I make all of our food at home, but some times my kids ask for something.
Lol, I feel that. My 8 yr old loves McDonalds. The rest of us tolerate it. He got a McDonald’s gift card for his birthday and was thrilled.
At the risk of sounding like a shill...Wendy's biggy bag is an incredible value. $5 for a sandwich, fries, 4 nugs, and a drink.
I eat there like once a month at most but it's the only fast food I'll eat besides McDonald's breakfast when I convince myself I deserve a treat (also like once monthly)
I don't know a lot about fast food, so thanks for this. I'll ask for if when I go there next time. Kids love this place
It's still fast food so don't go in expecting a delicacy or anything but it's pretty great for the money.
I like the crispy chicken BLT option the best. When I'm feeling crazy I get asiago cheese on it.
