Keep paying the prices and you will get more of the same or worse. Funny how the news reports never actually mention that part. They just find an excuse and latch on to that instead of telling consumers they're part of the reason the prices stay high.

Prices are not the only issue. Every time I go into a fast food joint the services is terrible. They get my order wrong.

Fast food restaurants are ran by a franchisee in most cases. They are lucky to make $100-$150K in profit in a year. They are paying increases in wages, utilities like electric/gas/water/sewer, increases in taxes, increases in insurance, increases in the cost of goods/food, increases in the cost of machinery and/or to fix said machinery used in preparing food.

They only give you two packages of catchup with a burger and fries, and barely give out condiment sauces or salt and pepper. They were also ordered to throw away expired food product in the dumpster by the county health department inspector. After the inspector was gone, the franchisee then ordered his employees to go dumpster diving and remove the expired product. Then the franchisee ordered his employees to serve the expired food product to customers. Disgusting.

"Nobody wants to cook at home anymore." Because unless you are feeding a family of 4 or more, cooking at home isn't as cost effective as eating out USED to be. Cooking for one or 2 requires A LOT of things that apartment dwellers don't have (ie, large freezer). One also needs copious room for lots of storage containers because eating the same thing for about a week at a time becomes a reality quick. The alternative is to waste a bunch of material because you need to cut the recipes down by 50 - 75%. Having to buy an ENTIRE shaker of an relatively expensive spice just to only use 1 ts is infuriating and costly.
