for a small, squished, fast food burger, that price is not worth it.

the point is that it sits in this weird middle ground where if you want the shit they have for cheaper and faster you can go to burger king or whatever. if you want better quality/experience you can just go to a sit-down restaurant.

yeah of course it wasn't. prices were much more reasonable. i'm pretty sure 10 years ago they didn't have half the stores that they had now, and were riding high off the principles and franchising momentum of the 2000s (you know, the period where they won all those accolades that you see plastered over the walls of their stores and built their brand image). there's definitely some sort of complacency nowadays.

Make smash burgers at home. Get a lodge griddle. Place it on your OUTDOOR grill and let it heat up. make 1/3lb hamburger balls. Squish out with hamburger masher, or just another pan.

fucking christ look at that thing. you answered your question with that pic. you don't understand what makes a burger good at all. you think piling meme ingredients and SO MUCH CHEESE and "HIGH QUALITY" BUN and shit like that makes it good. then you go to IT'S NOT FAST FOOD place and think you're hot shit, don'cha? what makes a good burger is the patty itself. all other ingredients should be complimentary and understated. it's just that simple but in your shriveled little mind you can't fathom that MOAR isn't better.
