Besides being convenient as drive thru-food. Are people buying

>same price
Shit shopper/shit cook detected.
I can do it at a fraction the cost.
Let's see:

>cheeseburger: about 75¢ US
>fries: 13¢ from homemade, 33¢ from storebought frozen
>sweet, sparkling juice: 78¢ home-mixed white grape, $1.14 storebought, 44¢ home-mixed apple, $1.14 storebought

Cheapest total cost for a burger, fries and sweet, carbonated drink dinner: $1.32.
Cost from McDonald's: $3.75+tax

Ooops. Miscalculated the price o'the bun. Total cost for cheeseburger is 81¢, not 75¢. Still, way cheaper than "the same price."

For a two parent, two kid home, the total cost of a cheeseburger and fries dinner would be something like $4.68 (figuring slightly smaller portions for the chilluns). That's about a third the price of getting it from McDonald's ($13.10).

Plus, sparkling juice, though just as sugary as soda, at the very least has some vitamins, but if you really wanna cut the costs further and be closer to a true McSperience, you could always just buy a large bottle of Coke and have that instead. That's a 92¢ savings over having sparkling juice at dinner (sadly).

I've met people who have become so accustomed to the taste of fast/convenience food that they actually prefer the taste of highly processed shit to home cooking.

they're just lazy

Monetarily, making dinner yourself is much cheaper. However, it is also much more time consuming. When you consider the time spent getting the ingredients and preparing dinner, you've spent substantially more time than you would have if you'd just went to McDonalds, and your time is your most valuable asset.

Does that mean that McDonalds is a better choice all things considered? Fuck no. The burgers you make at home will be cheaper and way better than the carcinogenic garbage you'd get at McDonalds. I'm just saying, making food at home *only* because it's $0.85 cheaper or whatever is fucking stupid. Cook because you like it and because you want to control what you eat.

well i'm one person. I can't buy a whole carton of eggs to make two eggs. so maybe that's it some times?

Because it tastes good and is easy. McDonalds is fucking expensive here.
