Well let's look at the burger:
Bread is cheap, tomato and lettuce are cheap, cheese is cheap. Bottom-of-the-barrel-quality meat is cheap.

As for the salad at 7$ it's probably a deluxe salad (most expensive that had) with more refined ingredients than the piece of shit burger

First off, that right there is a whopper jr and you're looking to spend 2.19 on that delicious American Classic.

Second of all, that bad boy is only a measly 280 calories, whereas that salad is lookin to be about 400. 600/700 after your fat ignorant ass covers that son of a bitch in Ranch dressing.

>>41735847
If someone's retarded enough to spend $7 on a shit ton of lettuce tossed with some meat, that's on them.

its pretty crazy how cheap burgers are in burgerland tho

>>41735847

Salad probably has fresh ingredients, making them spoil more quickly. Making them more difficult to produce.

Not even close

Because your lazy fuck face is ordering off the mcdicks dollar dick you menu instead of buying fresh produce from the grociery store and making your own cheaper salads at home.
And if you're stupid enough to buy a $7 salad at a fast food place everyday and then complain it's eating your wallet you have no budgeting skills.

>>41735873

>>41735847
Okay but..considering dressing and other toppings, fast food salads contain the same or more calories that burgers so either way your argument is invalid

You can get a two-serving bag of salad from Walmart for like $tree.fiddy.

Meanwhile, if you want to buy a half pound of ground round to make two quarter-pound hamburger patties, it's about the same price. Except you still need buns, condiments, cheese, and lettuce and various veg toppings.

I'm pretty sure fast food places sell salads close to cost. The better question is just how exactly are they able to sell a burger for $1 and still have room for a profit? That means it's costing the biz about 30 cents to make one burger, which includes labor. So they're using ingredients that are like 20 cents. But we just established that meat from the grocery store would push the cost including markup to more like $7.

The outrage isn't the high price of the salad, it's the low quality of burger.

>>41735873

>>41735899
>Mc Donalds make lots of money from having cheap burgers that sell in the shit ton

Incorrect view on how McDonald's actually makes money. Granted they rely on selling the McDouble at volume, but it barely covers the cost, and if you actually add in the employees working, it costs McDonald's money. (I believe the McDouble costs them about $1 and they charge something like $1.50 for it.)

They make all the big bucks on pop and fries, where the mark up is gigantic. A large soda costs them like $.05 and they sell it for $1.00+, fries are in a similar markup. If you want to out jew the hamburger jew, just buy the McDouble or McChicken, and NEVER pay any other item.

As to the OP, one $1 hamburger would never make anyone fat ever. CICO. Fatties eat like a dozen of them at a time, that is the problem.

>>41736156
They are breaking even or losing money on the cheap burgers. POP, POP, POP is how they make up for it.

you are assuming the salad is unhealthy. you could just as easily assume the burger is actually a grilled chicken lettuce wrap. the reality is cheap and healthy fast food is nonexistent for several reasons, the main one being supply and demand.

>>41736257
>the reality is cheap and healthy fast food is nonexistent for several reasons, the main one being supply and demand.

Ice Burger lettuce as fuck all nutrients in it. It all amounts to caloric intake you fucking dumbshit. No, one McDouble a day will do fuck all to your health or your waistline, if you are an adult and can capably manage your intake.

Supply and Demand. If fatties would stop demanding the burger Jew, then they would be less supplied, thus more expensive.

>>41735847
Because salads
>have a shorter life span than meat and condiments which can be preserved for a long while
>people are willing to pay more for a salad because it is "healthy"
>supply and demand, meat is cheap and a guaranteed sells in larger quantities
>people don't care to make their own salad
>people don't understand what goes into healthy food
>much stricter FDA rules on things in salad compared to frozen foods

Eating a salad won't make you less obese. I worked in Grocery for 6 years, people are idiots with salads. They will always load it up with, ham, bacon, eggs, fuck ton of cheese, and then make it a soup with the sauce because iceburg lettuce has little to no flavor. Congrats, your salad now is 7 or 8 bucks because you loaded it with shit more unhealthy and more caloric than the burger you could have gotten, ate in 5 minutes, then done a quick walk to burn excess calories off.

People pay more for salads because they think they are getting something healthy and can't be bothered to spend half an hour or so at home making their own meals for the next few days

>>41735847
I've literally spent $1.38 on veggies I used for a salad lol. When fat people think of salads they always must think of overpriced shitty fast food salads.

>>41736559
Biggest reason a salad costs so much is because most all salad bars are done via $/lbs. They always get people by counting on the fact people will put things that hold a lot of liquid onto the salad causing the price to skyrocket. Ranch and hard boiled eggs ares some of the heaviest shit you can put on a salad to up the costs while the store just sits back and banks.

>>41736488

Actually that's wrong, the demand curve would shift, and the equilibrium point would slide up the supply scale, there would be no shift of the supply curve

>mfw you don't understand this though because you never studied economics

This sounds dumb, but you can grow your own vegetables in your yard for pretty much nothing. Once you get a covered greenhouse established, you can grow stuff year-round.

I've been growing my own basic vegetables for years now. It's not to say I don't buy stuff from the grocery store, but I certainly don't pay $4 to get all the ingredients for a salad.

>>41736431

>>41735847
Salads are not proper fast food meals, not without much greater demand. This is just fucking retarded, if you go to the supermarket and buy the ingredients for a salad, it's pennies on the dollar per salad. It'll be over a dollar per burger buying from a supermarket.

Because of the insane demand, people have figured out really efficient ways of making burgers for cheap. That's what fast food is all about. If you go to a fast food restaurant to order a salad instead of spending way less time at home making a salad, then you are the fattest of the fat.

>>41735968

Just going to start ignoring doctors with their BMI shit. 'Can't you just eat less?' I'm already on the verge of going back to having an ED as it is. Had to eat nothing for 2-3 days then vomit up everything I ate after that, however little to get a BMI that was only just in the underweight range, but they decided to force feed me anyway because I lost 25% of my body weight pretty quick.

100% supply and demand.

Think of a convenience store. The store owner has limited space and stocks the top 1000 items that consumers desires. The motive is to make the most money.

If bags of steamed spinach, and cubed chicken breasts were in demand, they would be on the shelves of the stores.

The consumer is to blame.

>salad meme

Most salads are actually worse for you than a burger. You'd have to make your own salad for it to be healthy, and even then it's mostly just water in leaf form so it's not exactly healthy it's just not unhealthy.

How about you go to the fucking supermarket and buy a whole head of lettuce for a couple bucks, then you can make salads all week. Fat ass.

But no, the drive through of the nearest McDonalds is the only choice of food available to you, because your body barely survived the walk to the driveway, and the only choice left to you is to have your food handed to you freshly made by a minumum wage worker who is reminded to not eat the food at the place they work at when they feel the distortion of space-time around your body when you roll up to the drive through to add another 5lbs to your body, further contributing to the possibility of swallowing the earth whole as the fat in your body condenses into a singularity.

Go fuck yourself

i don't go to mcfats or any other fast food places but i think they're similar price to cheap pub food, it's certainly not cheap to eat fast food here.

The fuck? You can make like 6-7 salads buying a pound of spinach (like 2-3 bucks), a few chicken breasts ($2.5 per lb if you're being generous), and like 2-3 medium sized tomatoes and it's quite satisfying without dressing. Not every faggot needs to put pepitas, avocado and some balsamic vinegrette with their salad. Salads are good for you because fiber content (I cannot stress how immaculate my shits are) yet it has very low energy; not adding ingredients which help accomplish that is defeating the point of eating a salad. Don't go to fast food places to eat salads it's not sating - just don't go there at all unless you're drunk.

Burgers don't make you fat though. An overindulgence of burgers makes you fat. I eat burgers all the time and I'm not fat. Fatter than 8% bf, but normal healthy range for a male my size.

>>41736156
That's because you're thinking of supermarket prices. The vendors that restaurants buy from which sell in bulk much cheaper relatively speaking. I bet McDonalds only spends 60 cents MAX on a burger they sell for $1.25.

A $1 burger is a tiny, shitty burger. You can absolutely make a tiny, shitty salad for a dollar or less.

Also if you're getting obese on fucking burgers, literally just eat less burgers.

Supply and demand.

Don't post this again. Retarded Americans are going to go and eat 5 McDoubles a day because they feel like they're gaming the system.

>>41748792

The meat industry is heavily subsidized while salads are not.

>>41736196
this. the whole concept is a 'loss leader'. they have a primary product they sell as 'cheap' with little to no profit, which is then made up for by selling 'accessories', eg fries and soda, where the actual cost is cheap, but profit margin is huge.

Stop buying food at overpriced local hippie food stores you can find plenty of good healthy food for way cheaper at big grocery store chains though the hippie food places sometimes have stuff you can't find anywhere else

if the only thing keeping people from eating healthy is price, why don't everyone drink water

>>41735847
does any place actually have burgers for 1$?
and if so, are they very small burgers?

Not really that far off if the salad has dressing and/or meat in it.
However rough it is though, the point still stands. No one gets fat by eating a single hamburger.

>>41750334
I've never understood salad dressing. What besides a little good olive oil, (or balsamic vinegar if you are crazy weirdo person) is needed? What does salad dressing taste like?

I've never been much a fan of any kind of sauces besides barbecue sauce on ribs.

>>41735847
Am I out of touch here? I live in Burgerland, and where in the holy fuck is a salad $7? Even when I've gone to expensive restaurants the most a side salad costs is like $5. Is the salad above supposed to be the dinner entree salads that come with chicken, tons of fruits and vegetables, nuts, and so forth? Cus comparing that to a McDonald's dollar menu is retarded

>>41750473
The answer is nowhere. Nobody is buying a $7 fucking salad.

>>41735882
7 dollars is not a deluxe or fancy salad at all. The reason why hamburgers are so cheap is because we've subsidized corn in the US. Corn makes widely available and inexpensive cow feed. This in turn makes beef cheaper. Nearly all cheap fast food can be traced back to the decision to subsidize corn and corn products (ie: high fructose corn syrup) It was a decision made by the department of agriculture after the great depression, to ensure americans would never go hungry again. Unfortunately, it worked too well. We really need to stop. People should just accept food is an expensive luxury item(it is!) and eat less of it.

>>41750473
really no need to discuss this anymore. anon posted an image showing a salad with superior macros to a mcdouble costs them $3 to make. they charge $5 for it. the mcdouble costs them 80 cents to make.

why does a salad cost 3x as much as a burger to make?

>>41751422
> Unfortunately, it worked too well.

Yes, and partly because corn is a C4 plant (it grows like a motherfucker), means we have a massive excess of carbs available. Enough that it's cheaper to feed cows corn than grass, and we can refine it down to high fructose corn syrup.

Reducing the subsidies would be hard because farmers would fight it, but moving it to less efficient C3 plants (like wheat) might be doable.
