They used federal money to expand franchises from the white suburbs into low-income black neighborhoods, providing an easily-copied business model and a tested product. This is one of the several systemic reasons why many residents of urban communities in the United States have access to multiple fast food restaurants, but not necessarily a good grocery store.

The fresh food that is available is also often pricier; a estimate from the USDA found that groceries sold in food deserts can cost significantly more than groceries sold in suburban markets, meaning people in low-income communities impacted by food insecurity often pay more money for their food.

In fact, as Vox reported , research shows that the wealthier one is, the more they actually eat fast food.

These statistics both push back on the stereotype that poor people are less discriminating in their diets, as well as crystalize the difference between consuming fast food as a convenience and as a need.

That responsibility largely belongs to the United States government, who is currently fumbling the ball , especially after the election of infamous SNAP-hater Mike Johnson as the new House speaker.

More Americans than ever need affordable solutions to feed themselves and their families, and fast food is no longer the cheap way out. Ashlie D. Stevens is Salon's food editor.

And from my personal experience, certain things like eating out and hotels are particularly more expensive in the US than the baseline.

TulliusCicero 31 days ago root parent next [—]. Right, but normally this is kept somewhat in check by competitive markets. Prices rising are usually a sign that either input costs have risen in a way in which all parties have to deal with them, or the market is becoming less competitive somehow so incumbents can get away with higher prices.

chii 31 days ago root parent prev next [—]. this is where price discrimination, aka charging a different price to each customer, comes in. By finding out the maximum a customer would be willing to pay, you can get more profit than a static price for all customers.

The only thing is that another customer would not like to see themselves pay a higher price for the same good. Coupons, apps, etc, are the modern way to get around the customers seeing the "real" price others are paying.

Japan has an eating out culture due to smaller living spaces. It sadly became a lot more expensive recently with salaries staying low.

Ah I was wondering where the info was from. Nice site. joenot 31 days ago parent prev next [—]. Well done. Any personal findings?

crazygringo 31 days ago prev next [—]. Thank you, this is amazing -- especially with so many stories about McDonald's sticker-shock recently. This actually shows where that is and isn't the case, how localized it is. It also illustrates a fundamental problem with the Economist's famous Big Mac Index [1] -- I've never understood how they choose the price of a Big Mac per-country, when it's so extremely variable locally.

Even if they tried to choose "major metropolitan city prices", Big Mac prices vary a ton even within New York City, for example. There's more variation within NYC than the Economist reports between many countries.

I've never understood it. Which again, gives me no confidence. How is McDonald's providing a single price? That's a black box. And even averaging the cost between four major cities, there's a meaningful difference between a McDonald's in Times Square vs.

in the Bronx. So how did they even used to pick a price per-city? So just thanks for this McCheapest site. Pretty awesome to have actually accurate data. tekla 31 days ago parent next [—].

If you read the article that you posted and the methodology, they document exactly how they calculate the big mac index and how they choose the price. p3rls 31 days ago parent prev next [—]. Well, NYC has wildly differing levels of affluence mostly segregated into neat neighborhoods, sometimes even along a nice north-south gradient.

The most expensive McDonalds there for instance besides airports , Westchester Ave is not affluent at all, the streetview is even covered in garbage. To an outsider shocked by the NYC garbage situation, that's what all of the street views look like :.

Detrytus 31 days ago root parent next [—]. How come? Did Google make a deal with a garbage truck company to put Street View cameras on their trucks?

p3rls 31 days ago root parent next [—]. Lil bit of that lil bit of residents just not caring in these neighborhoods Above ground train station in a poor neighborhood? You're going to need some very dedicated porters in those buildings next door.

I was rather shocked to see how much the prices varied just within the handful of stores within a couple miles of my home. Silly me.

avalys 31 days ago prev next [—]. I just assumed that, other than airports and other special cases like that, the prices were set nationally. whartung 30 days ago parent next [—]. Certainly not. Land, taxes, labor, etc. vary across the country, and that has an impact on local pricing.

An extreme case is the McDonalds at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, which is a small town, obviously catering to the tourist trade. But, it's also, essentially, in the middle of nowhere. Plus, they have to truck water in, as there's no ground water or wells.

The prices of sodas and beer were about the same, and they have to pay more labor to attract folks to make the drive out to the town to work. Similarly, not McDonalds related, but there's another gas station in the middle of the desert with signs around the store to essentially tell folks "Yes, we know everything is expensive here.

We're in the middle of the desert. boguscoder 31 days ago parent prev next [—]. Ditto, this site brought me observational joy but informational shock.

McD direct owned almost all stores in Russia from what I heard, I bet they are done with that model now I worked for a corporate store in the Seattle area as a teenager.

They had a lot of them in the suburbs, but in Seattle itself it was all franchises. throwaway 31 days ago root parent prev next [—]. I thought franchisees cannot just set whatever price they feel like though? ttyprintk 30 days ago root parent next [—].

As I understand it, corporate in Chicago sets a USA maximum price. UberFly 30 days ago root parent prev next [—]. They have to be able to adjust to whatever the local landscape allows. I know in places like Seattle they tax it heavily.

seanmcdirmid 30 days ago root parent next [—]. epolanski 31 days ago root parent prev next [—]. Why wouldn't they? Franchisees have very little control over anything.

They can't change decoration, they often can't add an extra employee on a shift, they can't opt out of promotions, and they often can't set prices at all, or are allowed to change them only within a very narrow range.

They run the restaurant exactly the way corporate decides. This is standard for franchising. It's just how it works.

If you want to do things your way, you start your own independent restaurant -- you don't franchise.

Ads that quote the prices and the dollar menu give the perception of uniform pricing. I guess ads are regional, only mention one or two products, and they mention "in participating stores". I wonder how much the dollar menu varies if that's even a thing any more, it's been many years michaelt 31 days ago root parent prev next [—].

If they want to run national advertising campaigns about the price of a value meal, every store has to offer a value meal at the advertised price. I suppose they could just leave all the prices off national advertising, though. lotsofpulp 30 days ago root parent next [—].

Also, the most expensive McDonald's is actually connected to a gas station, which might be part of the high price.

My local McDonald's is 40c more expensive than this website shows, and it says the last update was in February It would be neat if it tracked the delivery version of the price too.

That's not me including a delivery fee in the price, the menu prices are just higher if you select Delivery in the app. There's also a Okay everyone seems to be ignoring the fact that the Big Mac has 2 menu prices.

So I'm just going to delete the part where I list the other fees that are separate from the hidden menu price adjustment. ajross 31 days ago parent next [—].

That it's down to the same scale as the burger you crave to sate your grumbling tummy is an amazing innovation of our modern techno-whizgig society, not something to whine about in a throwaway comment on HN!

squeaky-clean 31 days ago root parent next [—]. I think you've completely missed the fact that the base menu price increases when you select delivery? Also it's not 3 miles, it's ft. The restaurant is literally 3 blocks away from me.

There's no need to be such an asshole just because you misunderstood my comment. ajross 31 days ago root parent next [—]. My sincere apologies if you were offended.

It really seemed to me and still does, honestly; maybe you want to edit and rephrase? like you were complaining about the cost of delivery. And I stand by my reply there.

It's an unreasonable complaint, delivery is outrageously cheap in the modern world, such that we can now apply it to things we'd never have had delivered even a decade ago, like a McDonalds burger. Yes I'm complaining about the fact that they sneakily change the menu prices for items when you select delivery as an option.

All the other fees are kind of expected these days. But again if you want to argue about delivery prices, delivery is far more expensive than it was a decade ago. I know firsthand, I put myself through college delivering pizza and Burger King.

No secret menu pricing changes. Even if you did understand my comment correctly, there's still no need to be an ass. mleo 31 days ago root parent next [—]. The delivery service charges a fee to the restaurant per delivery. So the restaurant can eat the commission, average it across all customers or pass it along the added cost to the delivery customer.

Yes, that's what the "delivery fee" line item is supposed to pay for. rconti 31 days ago root parent prev next [—]. But it's all part of the cost of delivery. I'm not sure anyone who points out that "delivering things costs lots of money" is missing your point.

You're merely assuming that the prices you see broken down the way they break them down is actually an honest accounting.

I assure you nobody is assuming that. Especially the person complaining about the dishonesty, that wants an easier way to track the dishonest numbers. The USA is just way too expensive labor wise for that kind of thing. Density helps, of course, and you can get pretty much food from any restaurant delivered for a reasonable fee no tip.

Some of the nation's biggest fast food chains are looking to entice customers during the spooky holiday with giveaways and deals. Whether you're looking to score a free breakfast or want to get a good deal come lunchtime, there's plenty to take advantage of.

The donut chain, which recently gave out free coffee to celebrate National Coffee Day, is continuing its giveaway streak.

Customers who show up to its stores in costume will be given a free donut. McDonald's recently brought back its iconic Boo Buckets. The plastic buckets replace the traditional Happy Meal packaging and come free with any purchase of the classic kids' combo meal.

The fast casual chain is offering a steep discount on its burritos and bowls to members of its rewards program. The chain recently introduced the seasonal "Spider Donut," a donut with orange frosting and a Munchkin placed in its center designed to look like a spider.

Though not technically a Halloween deal, Taco Bell is giving out its new toasted breakfast taco for free on Tuesday, October 31 for members of its rewards program. Manage followed notifications. Close Followed notifications.
