We used to be a country, a proper fast-food, finger lickin' country.

According to the study by FinanceBuzz and visualized by Carbon Finance, McDonald's prices have tripled in the past 10 years - with the McChicken sandwich up 199 percent alone during that time period.
Those medium french fries you used to be able to purchase with a couple of quarters lying around your car? Yeah, they've gone from $1.59 to $3.79!
WTF indeed, my friends.
