    It’s a luxury to eat fast food now? Used to be that buying your kid a happy meal was a good, cheap solution to dinner, now it’s a luxury? By the way 3 $15 meals plus tax does come out to over $55, I was off by 5, sorry I offended your corporate dick sucking sensibilities

      Yes, eating food cooked from a restaurant is a luxury. This concept has been lost along the way of the last couple of decades.

      When I was a kid, that idea of “going out to eat” rather than having home-cooked food, was an occasional luxury instead of a regular staple of the diet. That was back in the last century.

      Now we have an obesity epidemic. People need to remember that restaurant food, including fast food, is actually a luxury.
