So I just went to do a roughly like to like comparison.

So the mainstream burger at Wendy’s is currently about 5.69 where I live.

I can get the supplies needed to make about 6 equivalent burgers for about 25, so about 4.17 a burger. Mostly because beef is pretty expensive right now.

Realistically speaking i would cook something other than burgers, but closest to like.

I suspect pricing out salads would be crazy more in favor of grocery, since Wendy’s charges a lot for salads.
