That’s not actually before all fees though, because on top of the fees you mentioned that GrubHub/door dash/etc list clearly, they also directly mark-up the food prices from the menu of the restaurants they list. If you ordered the same exact items for pickup through the BK app, they would be noticeably cheaper.
Not to say fast food prices haven’t and aren’t rising, or that they haven’t become expensive for what they offer, but listing a GrubHub price as prove of that point is disingenuous and misleading
Well, it’s not quite fair comparing a pick up price to a delivery price either, but here’s what I’ll do… When I go out today I’ll get you the menu price at the drive through and the app price with pickup and delivery.
Yes but when you say “remember when a whopper was $0.99” that implies apples to apples, not apples to oranges as is the reality of your comment. Further, it is not BK that upcharges the prices, it is GrubHub.
So yes, it’s not fair comparing pick up price to delivery price, but you were the one who first did that, not me.
Exact same meal, for delivery, through the official BK app is the same price. Fees make a minor difference, it actually comes out to be slightly more expensive than GrubHub.
Yes, because BK doesn’t deliver. They contract Doordash or Grubhub for delivery, and thus use their pricing. Again, comparing delivery to pickup is unfair, yet you did it in the first place. This was literally the entire point of my comment.

vs. $13.18 for picking it up myself.
