Assuming this was around 1994, and adjusting for inflation, it should still be under $2.
The beefy 5 layer burrito was introduced in 2009/10
So, Ryan Gosling was 29 years old in the top picture. Damn is he a great actor.
Inflation, greed and enshittification.
guys look a +500% price increase in less than one Gosling life time is totally normal capitalism

you want to blame capitalism and only capitalism, not corrupt politicians, not their policies, not their agendas.
Could you not say that the forces of capitalism have brought about the greed, justification, etc. that leads to corrupt politicians, policies, agendas?
(Pam meme) they’re the same picture

Capitalist greed happened.
The $2 meal deal, kept me alive in college. Sounds like I couldn’t even get the tiny Doritos bag for $2 now.
“fun” size now only 3.99
Is that a delivery service’s marked up price? Their site has them for much less.
This is the TB closest to me in the Los Angeles area.
I can get that as part of the build your own craving box for $6.
Crunchwrap, this, potatoes, and a drink for $6.
Capitalism
4.19 at my local tb, too damn expensive.
Well, he’s a big star now so that layer of his warm macho cheese is expensive.
Off topic but how does the guy at the top look 12 and 24 at the same time?
The Gosling Effect
Man, I know US food is …something else, but still, what the hell is this thing?
Apparently, the 5 layers are:
- Beef
- Cheese
- Beans
- Nacho Cheese Sauce
- Sour Cream
A.k.a. 5 times protein for no fucking reason. That’s going to taste like garbage, unless you make it entirely too greasy, too.
I guess, it being called “beefy”, that’s its whole gimmick, but that still doesn’t explain why it exists in the first place. When you could be eating something with a multitude of flavors, which doesn’t sit in your stomach like a brick either, why do you choose just a lump of meat?
