Things are indeed fucked, but I'm hard pressed to get my hands on a sandwich for less than $5. And I can churn those fuckers out at home for half that.
I am perpetually annoyed at how expensive any kind of fresh fruit or vegetable is, though. Why can I buy a pound of chicken for less than a pound of blueberries? When did onions start running over $1/lb? Why is a bag of rice at the asian market twice the size and half the price of its equivalent in Kroger?
Still so much cheaper to dice up some potatoes and carrots, season to taste, throw them in a baking dish, and wait an hour than to go out of pocket $10-15 literally anywhere outside my home. And holy shit, breakfast tacos! Basically free in my kitchen. I can't find anyone willing to sell them for less than $4 outside of my home.
