Remember when grabbing a quick bite didn’t feel like a small financial decision? 

Over the last decade, fast food and casual dining have gone through a major glow-up in price tags, even if the menus look pretty much the same. Burgers, burritos, subs, and “value meals” once lived up to their names, but today they’ll set you back noticeably more. 

Part of it comes down to inflation, part to rising costs that we maybe don’t know much about, but for customers it’s all about sticker shock. To really see how much things have changed, we lined up old menus against today’s boards, and the differences are hard to miss. 

Get ready for a tasty trip down memory lane, with a side of price reality, about delicious meals we can’t afford as often anymore.
