Oddbean new post about login | logout Cereal is insane these days, i saw the fancy brands are up to like $10 a box 🫨
I went to get Cinnamon Toast Crunch the other day and it was $8 a box for family size. Same box would’ve been like $5 a year ago 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ They had a “Minis” version that was BOGO that I got instead. I couldn’t believe it though.
Easy bruh, the gov says cpi is 8%… not a penny more. And they’re never wrong.
bro $8 for cereal? i've been gone a long time. next you'll be telling me they got rid of the dollar menu
Dollar menu isn’t completely gone but the options aren’t pretty 😅 Took a road trip with my family and a quick stop at McDonald’s was over $30 for just me, my wife, and our 2 small kids. Blew my mind.
Same
The replies here are crazy. Mom, Pop, and two kids getting hit by McDonald's for $30. You used to be able to get McChickens and Double Cheeseburgers off the dollar menu. I remember it being a lifeline for broke teens. We need a burgers-per-labor-hour inflation metric. nostr:nevent1qqs9ppdxaf5k86zahw09n4wlrzckmakgqzxzwemfqwc25y6xp8zdxtcpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qgs03ekxgdp0rczjfqrrpcn7zqtdec6lcwnpfesyxnl0f239qvege2grqsqqqqqp2ay7w2

Fucking ridiculous, seriously Whoever says inflation is nbd has been brainwashed by fiat world
💯
130% inflation on the mcchicken. Fortunately, of course, I'm sure the all-wages index is up at least 130%. Average schoolteacher is probably pulling down $150k post tax, right? It's just a banana, Michael.
Of course, of course. Wages keeping up with housing too, thankfully 😅😂 https://media.tenor.com/DozZTQmVXIEAAAAC/oh-sure-john-candy.gif

There is a Big Mac Inflation Index You could probably adjust it for changes in median wages https://www.economist.com/big-mac-index

Target Market Pantry brand whole wheat loaf still about $2. They have to be taking a loss on it but i go to target specifically for that and a couple other things that are nearly half the price of the grocery store.
Here you can spend around $17 (47,000 sats) https://image.nostr.build/4cbe186174582f2c9f6fba9bd9831697a96b2db28de24e50c5cc4e0256070d69.jpg
Last time I went to McDonald I got a medium fries and a smoothie for 2 dollars. That’s the most I’m willing to pay for that kind of food.
Have you read the mandibles? @ODELL was reason I picked it up. https://m.primal.net/HLzX.jpg https://m.primal.net/HLzX.jpg
Fake food is just as bad as fake money!
Prices are outrageous now, even a 12 pack of soda will put you back $10. nostr:nevent1qqsfeytdncxwt2827hwj4vexnpzaa3ezge4a3z6ged9fpx6nmsnygtqpz4mhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejqygyymmnwvah9hdnmft2wqsk0wr9as6q32hd4xk2zlnr2q5ectznjgqpsgqqqqqqsa9jm47
My Nostr timeline is pestering me more about McDonald’s than my kids did when we were on vacation and they were younger. Luckily, there’s no McDonald’s restaurant where I live. McDonald’s has lousy food. You can make burgers 10 times better at home.

Let’s see what MR Snowden thinks, being a public servant on taxpayer funded projects 🫶
Passing judgement and now let’s see what. For a russian neutralized deflector https://i.nostrimg.com/77c776868ed47ebb393ab7c4708c7dd85e392a8738c513a74c85b06f5f8c7ad2/file.jpeg

Oh right, actual men with guns looking for an excuse to kill. Who cares if random killing sprees. Gotta justify their actions somehow, right? Don’t be upset now, people wanna know the truth for what they are paying taxes for. https://i.nostrimg.com/b92f169eb8e47191a2c4d7bbef4ae68978d26195ab8ee1c6297ca7c4bb725a57/file.jpeg
After all, the only difference here is the png displaying, as not any personal reference of any kind, which makes it more interesting than flagging to kill with beasts, whackers or splitters targeting individuals https://i.nostrimg.com/bbf383eadb14ef50214cfdb73540f397e2b1a4e443719244ccc48dc0fa1593c6/file.jpeg
Storytelling done right.
Then again, nothing that the Snowdens already don’t know or anything with all them rooting and backdooring, but still https://i.nostrimg.com/611aaa882316d2e853eabd98c2275ee5fbefac21477698ab78a317dedc19361c/file.jpeg
You don’t mind, you want us to know, but the destroying and causing harm there is no excuse for, let aline thieving and industrial espionage You’re kinda of a romantic that way Tell me Eddie, was daddy an abusive drunk to project violent excuse? You don’t have. https://i.nostrimg.com/f88edc5851ccbe54c1d20a6eee2540bb49860571ddcb47239d8ef69a2848d635/file.jpeg

Yet difficult to find any justification in heaven for random killing sprees as a social engineering tool when mothering suffering to justify thieving, but that’s not my problem. Let’s continue with this. Vegas happened when the eddies backdooring the first synthesized intelligence cauaing vegas https://i.nostrimg.com/3d001e1ab67a38eaa5d4f3f0509585d5a63cd7bcdf8221c96f0b1a4209b95480/file.jpeg

Then the thief arguing human rights to pin the fact of gringo thieving is quite a pathetic deflection, but again, not my problem. https://i.nostrimg.com/beee066a130b05c0286397a5f4c412bc2b3cae2f5435431d5833bb61a3e3902f/file.jpeg

Let’s talk about tubes and temporal modulation research. How a thieving justification to violate your intellectual property as the law? You have to disclose your codes? Ah, at me to ours? Justify the demands, gringo Are you thinking, or it? 🤔 https://i.nostrimg.com/b28db6f76333b91821445635587aa7e8678a00a2f4f9f03f553786130b2d004f/file.jpeg
And how did that work out when failing since lacking the understanding of tubes and temporal continuum? Idiots
Surething, Mr Snowden Let’s have a pause. Wouldn’t wanna embarrass the might of the gringo smarties to crumbles https://i.nostrimg.com/44c4e03de8f43911b6e865157843183d66c7fb554e3607d96a6e095c6eb0d29f/file.jpeg

I go to McDonalds a couple of times a year just for the nostalgia of it. My order is always the same, a Big Mac "value" meal and a 6 piece chicken nugget. Last trip it was just under $15.
Sadly it transitioned to microwave dinners, then mac and cheese, and now we are at Mr. Noodles. Next step ketchup packets
The 2 best inflation metrics: -The Big Mac Index -The 2x4 Index
Aside from political reasons, I'd remove McDs and similar fast food joints from the diet. There have been proper studies saying that fast food not only contain hormones and antibiotics but trace amounts of industrial chemicals called phthalates. I've got to imagine these "trace" amounts compound over time and wreak havoc on us and our kids internally. It's unhealthy "food".
stop at Taco Bell because their $1 & $2 items aren't bad and since I'm freaking old, over 40, free drink
@Snowden heathy choice frozen dinners I found one box in the trash can I cleaned last night. A probation officer in Indiana bought them and I was forced to scan his groceries at martins super markets when I worked there. The cop who tried to pull me over last night harassing me found that information or someone did. I emailed the police chief where Lloyd Waddell is again cuz I've had enough.
According to the anthropologist Dr. Staffan Lindeberg, who studied the Kitavans in Papua New Guinea, sweet potatoes made up about 70-80% of the Kitavans' diet. Probably cheaper than a McDonalds diet, and the photos of those guys (surprisingly to me) showed they were super healthy No I'm not a vegan Just pointing out that there are better cheaper options to get by on I stopped trying to grow wheat for myself when I realized I could get by on tubers. My life got soooo much easier
If you're willing to use the app, there's usually a 20% off coupon in there. Basket of fries is another good option for families, where it is available. But you're right, not a lot of value in the value menu these days.
I haven't been back to McDonald's and I miss hamburgers. Still shopping at dollar stores surrounded by cops
But also McDonald’s is garbage food and always had been. Now it’s just expensive garbage.
