I went to a McDonald's and it turns out they increased the price of a singular, generic, low-quality Hamburger to €2.50. I still remember them costing €1 not too long ago. What the fuck?

It's about time and energy, picking up fast food on the way home takes less time and energy than keeping the fridge stocked and prepping meals for many people. It requires more planning and foresight, especially if there aren't markets nearby. It's easy to fall into routines that corporations try to suck you into. They're victims of capitalism.
