The thing that I hate the most about it is it’s the same fucking price at the grocery store, but somehow that equates to a 40% more expensive burger. Meat is ungodly expensive nowadays such that my partner and I opt for meat substitutes because it’s often cheaper and we prefer them anyway.
I understand economies of scale, and that they’re buying less of it so they’re gonna be paying a little more, but $3 per 8oz burger is absurd. Burger places have lost their goddamn minds when there’s often way better ramen noodles next door for half the price.
