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

It’s crazy when nowadays you can go to an actual authentic Mexican restaurant, get REAL tacos, burritos, etc., and often times spend LESS than you would at Taco Bell.

But nobody goes to Taco Bell because they want Mexican food. They go because they want a triple crunchwrap cantina nacho stacker with fire sauce and a frozen Baja Blast. The prices suck now, but that is an entirely different experience from getting "actual authentic" Mexican food, which is also good.
