Let them eat burgers! Austrian chancellor says low-income families should eat at McDonald’s - Lemmy

It’s not healthy, but it’s cheap: a hamburger at McDonald’s — €1.40, if I buy fries with it, €3.50.

3.50€ for a meal isn’t cheap and nothing a poor person can afford in a regular basis. I can cook a great meal for under 2€ that doesn’t consist of trash. What a detached asshole.

Yeah I don’t know about Austria but here McDonald’s ain’t that cheap.
Same here in Lithuania. McDonalds is way too expensive for people on a tight budget and what you get for the price is disappointing too. It’s cheaper and more delicious to make some burgers at home (which aren’t so dry that you must wash down every bite with a sip of Coke) or just to get a street kebab (which is slightly more expensive but actually fills you for the entire day and is nutritious).
Same in all Europe. Not cheap for the quality. Cooking at home the same burger is cheaper with better ingredients
