Haven't been in a while, but these were 2 for $3.50 pretty recently around me. The thing is, they are small and you wouldn't think it could fill you up, but whatever chemicals they add to these things makes just 1 small burger feel like you overate. Eating what, for me, is like 3 bites of food should not make you feel that way. It's unnatural and you can feel the unhealthiness. 🤣

Gimme the big-ass burrito made by the little old Mexican lady in a truck around a construction job site. It'll cost the same, but taste better and not make me feel like I'm gonna die.

That's usually a feature of good food. I agree that it's odd that a hamburger would be that way, but usually what causes that is fiber.

Oh yes. I’m a convert to burrito shops. Cost is about the same as fast food chains, without the chemicals and corporate crap, and I get to support local families. Also, delicious. Win, win, WIN!
