but can you seriously count that as a restaurant?

I think we’ve figured out the issue. You people don’t know what a restaurant is.

There are cheaper restaurants than the one you mention.

If you choose not to acknowledge them, that’s on you. But claiming that you can’t eat out for significantly lower than the prices you people mention is objectively wrong.

I answered your question honestly and in good faith.

If you want more details, you can do your own research and find out the exact percentages. I’m not going to do it for you.

Come back and let us know what you find since it matters to you so much.

Way below what you can get from welfare in the US.

It’s not all-or-nothing. Most people don’t even attempt to eat cheaply because they believe it’s beneath them.

There are also cheaper restaurants to go to. Much cheaper.

Your argument made it seem like there are no cheaper restaurants, which is false.

You’re choosing to pay that price.

Again, you’re wrong.

What cities are you talking about? I’ll show you restaurants that are cheaper than what you say.

Also, tipping is a scam and every time you do it you keep it going on for longer.

So… I should go through all of that trouble because you don’t like hearing lawnmowers?

I’m curious what planet you are from where you think anyone would do that.

Man, it’s telling how many of you believe things because you never tried them yourselves.

Get out into the real world. Get some experience.

Where are you talking about that this is the case?

We can do internet searches to see if you’re correct.

Have you ever been on welfare? They give you enough money to get snacks, too.

Do you make all your own food, clothes and shelter yourself with foraged materials from the land you live on?

Lol, the mental gymnastics you people resort to in order to justify being taken for a ride.

Let me just say this: the profit margins from my spending habits are significantly lower than the profit margins from yours.

What makes you think that?

It’ll take a lot more effort, but yeah of course you can.

Ok well, the point was that you can eat at a restaurant as a family for under $100.

I think we’re probably going to see a schism at some point in the fediverse.

The fragile people who can’t seem to tolerate anything they don’t like will end up in their own bubble.

It’s not that great, and the creator seems to have some weird fixation on little girls.

You don’t have to be curious. Just about everywhere there is civilization, you can eat at a restaurant for under THIRTY-FOUR FUCKING DOLLARS. The fact this needs to be spelled out to you should be a wake up call to anyone who isn’t living in your privileged bubble.

A better question would be, where are you living where you can’t find a meal for under that price? I’d love to know so we can do some internet searching and see if you’re telling the truth.

Sorry you’re in that position.

Is there a welfare program that you can get on to help?
