A social media backlash to media reports that said fast-food chain Wendy’s had plans to increase menu prices during its busiest hours shows a limit to where, when and for what U.S. consumers will trade more cash for convenience.
After I paid $4.31 a while back for a large chocolate Frosty, was handed a 12 ouncer, and was assured that it was not a mistake when I insisted that I’d ordered a large, I decided to part ways with Wendy’s. Shrinkflation with the Frosty’s, hyperinflation with their burgers…fuck 'em. I’ll make my own burgers.
