In Alabama, we spend the 7th highest percentage of our income on fast food. Mississippi spends the most on its fast food when compared to everyone else in the USA.

Fast Food Spending/Prices In Alabama Compared To US:

The average cost of fast food is $22.31
Average Burger Price-33rd
Average Pizza Price-30th
Average Chicken Sandwich Price-43rd
(These findings all come from the new study from Web-Hub.com)

The price of fast food has risen 47% over the last decade.

 

Did you get that? That is simply huge. Inflation has been bad but c'mon man.

HOW DID YOUR FAVORITE RESTAURANT RANK?

 

North Star Inbound has released the results of a study revealing the best and worst fast food service in the USA.

McDonald’s and Chick-fil-A have the two fastest drive-thrus

Wingstop and Culver’s are the slowest drive-thrus

McDonald’s is where consumers say they encounter the laziest workers

KFC is where customers say it takes too much time to prepare

Most bad service experiences at Wingstop and Tropical Smoothie Cafe drive-thrus
(Data/Stats shared by North Star Inbound)

I personally find the best, most consistent great service at Chick-fil-A. And the food is good too.

The Tuscaloosa, Alabama area Jack’s restaurants also consistently have great service and good food.
