Gotta throw in the labor too, if I lived in Scottsdale I wouldn't think twice about $18 if the food was solid
Even our only good Chinese place here in my one horse town has raised their prices through the roof, and its STILL a far better value in terms of freshness, consistency and quantity than anything in the fast food realm
Outside of that your best bet is to cook at home, and I do love cooking so it helps keep food costs down... but sometimes one simply doesn't wanna dick around in the kitchen
