Yea, a big part of why companies charge so damn much for fast food is all the retards out there are willing to pay it. They definitely could make food cheaper, but why bother? This is a big reason a sit down mom and pop can often be cheaper than some fast food slop.
People must still be eating it though. I drove through a coffee shop and got the second largest size of mocha (usually drink black coffee) and a piece of lemon poppy seed bread and it was $13.25 which I rounded up to $15 for a tip. Who the fuck does this? How is this place staying in business? Where do they get the balls to take a $2 cup of coffee, pour a cup of milk into it, throw in a spoonful of cocoa powder, squirt some whipped cream on top, and charge $8.75 for it?
You complain too expensive, but the business reads this as too cheap.
I gave them the tip because it was the last money they will ever get from me.
A friend of my Mom owns 3 drive thru only coffee stands on the rural Oregon Coast. Nobody has money there really and this lady straight prints money. Only employs high school students/teenagers and has one salaried manager for all her locations who has worked for her for like 10 years. She pays the general manager like $100k a year so she stays loyal. The students get paid shit and the overwhelming majority of customers come there not once but twice or even three times daily.
Not sure with the hand thing, never noticed it before. I used to watch him from time to time a few years ago and he popped up again in my feed. He's been doing reviews like that for awhile and is a teacher in Japan.
Rural. We have catrina's which is pretty awesome, what chipotle/qdoba wishes they could be. We don't have Del taco, or chip/Q here. Maybe theres a chip in Tulsa somewhere. I miss in CO big city burrito which sold back in like 2012 a $12 basically double old big chipotle burrito. Current chipotle I can eat the $9 or whatever it is now rito and easily be hungry still.
