Unless there's a legit restaurant as part of the hotel, don't eat where you lodge.

How incompetant do you have to be to have to cook this shit from frozen? Pretty sure its cheaper to make from scratch too.

Never understimate the skills of a min wage drone to fuck things up, they are literally skilless useless fucktards thats why they are on a minimum wage job, barely human.

Food at stadiums, amusement parks, events, etc
Fast food nowadays except for a couple (taco bell, sometimes BK)
Pre-cut/peeled/washed veggies and fruits
Anything that imitates meat
Anything that imitates butter/animal fat
Shrinkflation
When they make the container way bigger than the contents of foodstuff to make it seem like you got more

[Anonymous No.20261251]

>sometimes BK
Maybe it's just a Delaware thing but BK here is cheap AF
I mentioned this yesterday but a Whopper Jr and fries is only $3. Just a burger from Wendy's or McDo will set you back $4 or more
That said, I don't eat at any of these places to begin with, I just notice prices on billboards and signboards and shit

clubs markup alcohol by at least 5x

[Anonymous No.20261458]

I looked at it recently and in my city they markup normal beers 6x but stronger beers are only marked up 2x. Still a rip-off ofc.

I can call in a pick up order at a local joint and it's cheaper and better than any fast food burger. Fast food is literally only eaten by poor retards (you) who think spending 20 minutes in line is a time saving measure.

You laugh, but I've bought frozen pasta in sauce like pictured, probably Aldi, not TJs, and it was chewy good fresh pasta, and when you saute it in a skillet, it gets nice texture as the sauce returns to liquid. Seriously not bad small late night meal for one.

I've been buying a butternut-sage pasta sauced ravioli for literal years,not sure the brand, but the sauce comes in ice cube sized chunks in the bag that melt into sauce nicely. It only needs a little fresh parm or splash of cream.

gold leaf is comically cheap to buy relative to how much it'll mark the price up in a restaurant
ordering alcohol at a bar/restaurant is going to be a huge markup

I baked cookies for a classmate who was allergic to dairy, I wouldn't call non dairy butter a ripoff insofar as it works as intended and some people need it, but it is super pricey
