Cook Out is the new soul of the South - a heavenly place with giant-sized sweet teas and the best bang for your buck. Where else can you get a quesadilla as one of your TWO sides with your entree?
So it made sense that Biden would swing by a Cook Out in North Carolina to run his "man-of-the-people" act:
Pretty standard politician stuff.
What's not so standard, however, is the inflation his policies have caused:
Thanks to #Bidenomics, a Cook Out tray costs 28% more than it did three years ago when Biden had his previous photo op.
Oof.
It's true, though. Look at those numbers:
- $4.99 for a junior tray in 2021, $6.59 today
- $5.99 for a normal tray in 2021, $7.69 today
- $2.99 for a "Big Double" then, $3.99 today
- $1.39 for a corn dog then, $1.99 today
And on and on. Prices just keep going up!
Maybe there's some variation in prices at different locations, but I think the internet sleuths are right on this one.
What a way to see Joe's legacy in action!
