    Did anyone think Five Guys was giving the extra fries for free?
    Anyone? KFC's prices are insane!
    The host is right that grocery prices are through the roof, but
    cooking at home is still cheaper than going out. Definitely cheaper
    than fast food.

    5 Guys was set up by private equity guys to be a premium ingredient
    operation.

    The same can be said for MOD Pizza.

    This is a choice bidnits, but in this economy, likely to collapse.

    Then again the days of the $4.99 prime rib and baked tater special at
    the Frontier in Vegas are over too.

    Blaming the restaurants won't bring beef prices down, or energy, wage
    (how's that $15 min wage working out in Seattle?) or transport costs.

    The answer comes (for a while) in robot labor.

    Enjoy your guaranteed gaming income when that hits.
