The prices have honestly become close enough that if you don't mind waiting (waiting at a restaurant table and sitting on your phone if you're alone isn't so bad), get a better meal. A lot of people who get fast food have the time, it's just the price and convenience that has gotten them. Now it is less convenient, and honestly the people they hire are such scum they keep all the sodas flat and the grease old and all these mishaps that add up to a really shitty meal. The quality has declined significantly. It has shown that they do not deserve a living wage if they cannot even surpass the fast food level of real life with achievements.
