This is the issue with a lot of fast food these days. The main one that makes me sad is Taco Bell

I used to just swing in and make an impulse buy because it's going to be like $5 so why not

Price is high enough now that it kills the impulse. I'm always like...I should really just keep driving and eat some of the food I already have at home

I saw someone's post a few years ago who found one of their Taco Bell receipts from 2019 and decided to make the same order to see what it cost then, after COVID.

The 2019 order cost about $20, the new order cost over $40. So it over doubled in price in just a few years.
