Gobstoppers12 05/21/24 7:19:15 PM #62:	Honestly, prices have gone up so much at fast food places that it's pretty much on par with eating at a sit-down restaurant with actual quality. The appeal of fast food was that it was cheap and easy to get on the way home from soccer practice, church, etc. with a car full of people. Back in the day, you could feed a family of 5 for under twenty bucks. Nowadays, you can barely feed two people for $20 at the cheap places. --- (He/Him) I write Naruto Fanfiction.
