Remember the dollar menu?
It’s no secret that prices in general have skyrocketed since covid.
And not even a Mcdonald’s cheeseburger was immune.
But how much have prices really gone up?
It’s a complicated answer…
And Ronald McDonald and his fast food counterparts would rather you just buy your lunch and ask less questions.
So we compared 2019 prices (courtesy of fastfoodprices.com) with 2024 prices at a Los Angeles-based McDonalds….
2019’s $1.79 medium french fries cost $4.19 in 2024.
McChicken sandwiches that cost $1.29 now go for $3.89.
Big Macs jumped from $3.99 to $7.49.
10 McNuggets that went for $4.49 now cost $7.58.
And yes even that $1 cheeseburger will now set you back $3.15.
Inflation aside, can’t say we’re lovin’ it.
