McDonald's annual cost of goods sold for 2023 was $10.931B, a 9.58% increase from 2022. McDonald's annual cost of labor for 2023 was $2.885B, a 10.24% increase from 2022. The spread on beef/lb since 2020 is 40% delta, flour 60%, and cheese over 100%. Big Cheese Industrial Complex. I guess if McDonalds is greedy for people spending more money, the workers and the farmers are greedy too. Especially in California, where workers just got a 25% wage increase. As you said, /u/imglorp, "It's just greed"
