Bruce, I have found that I can buy a cooked meal in a diner for just about the same price as a crummy meal at a fast food joint. Have you priced chicken lately in a restaurant? To get enough fried chicken at a KFC to feed my gang, it costs nearly $40. McD food is just as expensive. Went to Chick-fil-A the other day for a meal for the grandson - $23 to feed a 10 year old kid.
It isn't a matter of affording it - I'm just about sick of making the fast food places rich out of our family budget. We could have steak and lobster every night cheaper than eating at fast food joints.
Just as a comparison, I can get a full course breakfast at one of the local diners for about $7.50. Eggs, sausage, home fries (double on the spuds) toast, and beverage. I leave a $10 to cover the wait staff. Dinner amounts to under $12 including the senior discount and comes with more food than I can possibly eat. To get a comparable amount of food at the local fast food place would cost near $40.
Whenever I find discount burger, I stock up as much as I am allowed to but without batting an eye! I have no idea what is wrong with people today when it comes to food.

While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
