That’s just it, though. A lot of fast food places have been pricing themselves up to the point where they’re meeting the price of proper sit-down restaurants. The only thing they have to offer at this point is convenience. It’s just not worth buying fast food any more.
Last time I went to Taco Bell, I paid $27 for two people, and was told to wait in a parking space. 25 minutes later, they brought out our cold stale food. I could phone in a takeout order from the fancy local Mexican restaurant up the road for almost the same price, same wait, and better food. So convenience is not even part of it, at least where I live.
