Good, even with rising food prices it's still monumentally cheaper to make food for yourself at home instead of being a useless lazy slug and paying people exorbitant amounts of money to do it for you.

>>512714390 (OP)
so why dont restaurant owners go to people houses and cook meals for families in their own homes instead? i would pay $100 if a chef from a local restaurant came to my house and cooked a gourmet meal for me with the shit i had in my kitchen. if you cant get people to come to your business, then take the business to them.

>>512714390 (OP)
just stop paying servers any wage and let them live off the thousands in tips they make.

>>512714673
I honestly believe there would be a market for private chefs for the middle class.

>>512714390 (OP)
Good
Shutter all fucking restaurants

Only boomer retards eat out now

>>512714390 (OP)
I usually buy some stuff and make something quick, I'm not a good cook, but do well enough. That said, there's some charm in ordering a nice pizza and pigging out once a week or going to a sit down place and enjoying some good quality food.

>>512714390 (OP)
damn. we need to print more money and fund more foreign conflicts.

>>512714673
I have a relative who did this. He owned a high end restaurant but Americans have turned into goyslop eating disgusting poorfags who were unable to pronounce or afford the menu items, so he just became a private chef for a rich guy and his family. That costs real money to hire a private chef though. $100 could probably get you an illegal immigrant to cook some burgers and tacos for a night.

>>512714390 (OP)
Is that news? Almost all us have heard and known that since 2023. Whoever publishes these news must be using internet explorer, kek.

>>512714390 (OP)
it will only get worse as tariffs (and inflation) start biting. if they do cut rates, we can expect inflation to come back.

>>512714390 (OP)
I can afford to eat out, but I choose not to because Timmies, Mcdonald's etc only hires Indian foreigners and international students. I don't support it.

>>512715304
no what we need to do is import more niggers and give jews more money

>>512714390 (OP)
Have they tried paying workers more?

>>512714390 (OP)
I live in NYC and lunch is now 15$ without a drink, 20$ with, from a fucking FOOD TRUCK. actual sit down restaurants are 30$ for a burger and thats standard. ive been living off of mcdonalds nuggets (20 for 5$) and beans because of how expensive it is. shit is outrageous.

We used to have these magical things called “wives” who would cook everyone’s meals at their houses but the jews ruined that

Ameripoor

The overwhelming majority of restaurants shouldn't even be in business

>>512715136
That’s really the only reason to eat out anyway is if it’s something you can’t cook at home like pizza/thai food/chines food, etc.

>>512714390 (OP)
One simple basic cheeseburger from McDonald's is over $3. It should be half that.

>>512716380
Lots of restaurants are just for money laundering

>>512714390 (OP)
Freaky seeing my hometown being mentioned in a national news story. Prices are stupid here too, can't even get a deal at mcdonalds anymore.

it should be double with half of it going to israel

My family only eats out once a year when we take my mom out for her birthday. We don't eat goyslop and everything else is too expensive to be a regular thing.

>>512716400
Pretty much. When I eat out it's either some fast food slop that I got a craving for (pizza or burritos usually, but recently got into some pulled pork burgers that are the bomb) or something nice I can't make myself, sushi is a big one for me.

why presume that eating at restaurants is how people will eat going forward? How people get their food has changed over time. Fast food in particular is a modern phenomenon due to cars.

Total economic and societal collapse on a global scale in the next 1 to 5 years it will make the 1930s Great depression look like babytown frolics

>>512714673
At $100 there is no way anyone would make money.

>>512714673
Or you can learn how to fucking cook

>>512716542
I thought they moved it all over to phone apps/games.

>>512717654
I remember seeing part of a video were some guy went through the numbers that shows we are worse off now than the Great Depression. I wish I could find it now so I could repost it in these types of threads.

don't worry bro we will give the rich a tax break to solve the issue just like we did in Big Beautiful Bill when we took away health care to help the rich on taxes

>my cost of a home-made meal: 2€ - 4€ and 1 - 2 hours for prepping ingredients and waiting for the stuff to be done cooking
>cost of a restaurant meal: 30 - 40€ to be truly full for the rest of the day, 2 - 3 hours of time to get there, order, eat, pay and get back home again
ngl being an asocial recluse has its financial benefits.

idk I was watching big bang theory with my wife because it was on - I know it’s a fucking sitcom, but I noticed those fuckers had takeout/sit-down restaurant meals every single night, rent was $600 for two bedrooms, they all had do-nothing jobs at universities, and a ridiculous amount of extra money to randomly go to Vegas, Comic Con, have multiple children, etc.

It was the same with Friends, even fucking Roseanne

There’s no millenial sitcom because it would be too fucking depressing. Just perma-neets at their computers 100% of the time instead of 30% of the time. All they have to eat is the frozen nashville hot chicken mega bowl they’ve already been avoiding eating for months.

>>512721280

Did you factor in the spit, semen, asscrack lint and the rest of surprise ingredients?

>>512721671

Part of the problem is people got used to eating like that when they shouldn't have

I order a large quantity of cheese bread sticks from a local pizzaria.
The kike that runs the place decided to start making them with a single shred of cheese per breadstick and still call them the same thing, while simultaneously raising the price from $8 to $20
I went and got my fucking money back and will just be baking them myself from scratch.

>>512721984
they make fun of millenials in the show, avocado toast, man buns, hipsters, and all, and they’re all huge Trekkies, very Gen X

Not to mention these people are nearly 30 in 2007. I was 18

>>512717654
and barely anything will change for your average young single person

>>512719570
its definitely just as bad in some aspects, in others its better like food

restaurants are a fucking waste of money
only retarded women like eating out (unless she's staying home eating out Tyrone's asshole) and "fine dining"

>>512715526
he is thinking about average restaurant chefs
$100 per hour or work + waiting for it to cook (ok, that would have to be payed too) is ok money for them

>>512721671
It was always like that.
Nobody wants to watch a show about poor people getting shit on, that's too much like real life.
It's only funny in the case of Cricket from always sunny because he kept going lower, lower, lower, until he falls in love and possibly bangs a dog.
Which they can't keep going forever eventually nothing will exist of Cricket.

I digress, they have to in Sitcoms have the people survive enough that things do go badly.
Same reason Bob from Bobs Burgers somehow always pays rent despite the fact he knowingly is bankrupt regularly.
It's just magic at that point, literally even.

Real life sitcoms are way worst.
>i work as a mailman but have a 5 bedroom house

those are just average restaurant spices

true, but just hearing them say “wow can’t believe bitcoin is up to $5k” hurts a lot

not to mention I DID pay $600 a month for a nice 2br out of highschool

My rent now for a 3 br is $3k

There are no restaurants in US.
They all just microwave factory slop that gets shipped to them in a container. There are no cooks. Total profit optimisation, boyim!

That is abysmal and you'll kill yourself walking around with a rubber shoe that smooth

Lack of competitiveness and tipping culture killed them. Employees and management have been fighting this war using customers as bludgeons. The restaurant placards posted here advising customers not intending to tip generously to go away are of course fake, but they're not too far off the actual mentality of tipped workers. And in that regard, if you're a normal looking white male, it's not safe eating restaurant food in any city anyway.

Of course they'll blame everything Trump and Trump-adjacent. But the real reason is mismanagement, greed and the fact that nobody with common sense believes that tipping more than 15% under any circumstances isn't a complete waste of money

>>512723481
I remember doing stupid shit like that all the time as a teenager , the manager always chuckled and said "You boys are going to get me in so much trouble"

Fuck them, they brought it on themselves.
In LA alone, there are over 300 restaurants that have added service fees anywhere from 3% to 20%.

>>512721671
all television is propaganda

they want you to think that *you* are uniquely poor and that everyone else is doing fine

>>512723481
Tipping anything at all is insanity. American tipping culture must have began in a highly prosperous time when people has money to fucking throw around, but regardless it is an archaic practice that has no place in modern society. I have stopped tipping entirely unless I reasonably believe it will mitigate tampering with my food. It always feels extremely stressful, but I am utilizing my conviction to push onward.

Fuck greedy fucking service workers.

funny enough, mexican food prices have not increased and service has improved.

Peel some potatoes and fry some sausage, you lazy fucking imbeciles.
It's not that hard. If you're stupid and poor you're not in a position to pay somebody to cook for you and sit in fancy dining rooms called restaurants.

Be like asian niggas and live off $0.30 noodle packs with some veggies thrown in, instead of eating a $30 take out breakfast/lunch/dinner

I just made a 20-bowl pot of pho with top quality ingredients for $60, everything included. A large bowl is $20 at our local spot. And to be perfectly frank I ain’t Vietnamese and mine’s better. The whole family is going to pig out for three days and the neighbors will eat too.
