I don't even consider the food okay... I liked a few breakfast options, but the prices of even that have gone up so much the past 3 years, I won't even go then. It wasn't that long ago that the breakfast burrito was $1 (then 2 for $2/3) and they had some sandwiches 2 for $2/3/3.33/4/5 ... When I'm paying over $10 for a couple breakfast sandwiches and a drink, I'm out.

They definitely seem to be squeezing more out of their franchises than ever at this point. They will push technology optimizations, but they're at a point where service and price just isn't there. If I'm spending $15+ for lunch, I may as well go to Applebees/Chili's, etc.

At the airport yesterday - only two items on the $1/2/3 menu - $3.99 4 piece nuggets and $5.19 McChicken sandwich.

It’s comical how bad the gouge customers and franchises alike.

As a frequent work traveler, airport prices are always at least double what they are outside the airport. It's not a fair comparison.
