Prices were also more Fastfood Chain worthy.

For real. Paying restaurant prices for stuff that tastes like it was microwaved inside a wet bag. Much rather go to an actual restaurant at that point.

Yeah people make your own burgers, freeze them and buy like frozen fries. It's like a 20 min cook time from frozen to ready. For the fries air fryer set it and forget it, for the burger cast iron pan, 20 min is for me cause I have 150 gr or more burgers. Which is about 3rd of a pound or more. They're made by my local butcher and they're prob better than anything you can buy at a burger joint unless it's a $50 joint. Don't make the dried smash burger patties, make a fat one it's always better.
