    $10 Aud gets you a proper burger in Oz at a bakery or takeaway spot, you’ll pay $20+ Aud inc chips/fries in a pub/bistro, but either way you have to tackle them to stop them putting fucking pickled beetroot on it first, dark times all round indeed…

        Yeah local bakeries still do them for $10, proper fresh buns and salad, still do schnitzel rolls with proper chicken for that price too, not with a big processed chicken nugget pretending to be a schnitzel…

          I am so curious what part of Oz you’re in, because absolutely nowhere is anything near those prices, where I am, but I am in an expensive city.

          Is that cheap, by current standards? I’m in Australia, and so is the commenter I asked, but where I am it’s unheard of for burgers to be much below $20.

            10€ is ~18AUD

            There’s cheaper burgers, but I wouldn’t really call them burgers with the cheap frozen patties and bread. It’s definitely on the cheaper side though, as i’ve paid 14€ for a burger in the past.

            So I guess it’s pretty much the same.
