    I agree depends very much on where you live but anywhere where Burger King costs over $30 is going to be more expensive than the kind of areas you are talking about. That seems to be the underlying assumption in this thread at least.

      But that really isn’t true either because fast food has gotten quite out of control here as well.

      A large whopper meal at the closest place is almost $17. So you could easily hit $30 for 2.

        Dude a whopper meal doesn’t cost $17 anywhere. A cursory google search will show you that. The most expensive I see is $12 and that is 1 source. The rest run $6-$10 typically.

          Dunno what to tell you man, that’s what comes up here on the bk website. There’s a whole 2 locations within an hour of me. I don’t eat fast food and I’m not about to install their app just for this conversation, so but hey, let’s even say the $16.70 is a whole 20% higher than the actual price… that’s still like $14 for the large meal, which still puts it squarely within the $30/2 range.
