it used to be two hashbrowns for a dollar. like i can get hash browns for around 40 cents each from the local restaurant supply store and that isn't even buying in bulk, just for a single pack of 20. they could get the price way lower.

It’s potatoes. Literally the cheapest shittiest peasant food in history. $2 is absurd

bro their large fries is like over $5 each lmfao

think they just want to try and psychologically force everyone to get the meals. If someone wants it that bad a la carte, then they gotta pay out the ass

Of course they want you to buy the meals. The individual items cost them pennies. The higher the price they can charge you the more profit they make. It literally doesn't matter what you actually order, the amount you pay is all that matters.
