The TB cravings box is the GOAT of value meals - and you nailed it with the exact same “most food possible per dollar” strategy that I do: Crunchwrap, 5 layer burrito, potatoes. That Crunchwrap on its own by itself is $5 on the menu - so basically everything else in the meal is *free.* Pair it with the rewards points for ordering on the app and you can easily score free nachos bellgrande’s every once in a while to make a hell of a feast for a couple bucks.

Taco Bell's $5 cravings box is a great deal. I calculated it would cost over $13 at menu prices if you picked the most expensive items. McDonald's usually has a 20 nuggets and 2 large fries deal on their app which is about $5.70 in my area and would cost double that at menu prices. I think the Little Caesars large pepperoni pizza for $5.99 is still one of the best values and you could easily share that with someone else. Subway always has a BOGO coupon code that many people don't know about and you can get two footlongs for less than $8 using that.

It amazes me how people don’t use food apps/order online …it’s 2023 - I literally have almost every fast food app in my area.. the deals on them alone are worth it. Fun fact: Little Caesar’s does a “Make It A Meal” deal when you order the Italian Cheese Bread ($5) + 2 liter of soda ($2.99) automatically when you go to checkout - it goes to $6 even. Pair that with a couple hot n readys and it’s a steal!

Wendy’s has been my choice for a quick a cheap filling meal, I found the best value you get is when ordering for 2 or more and taking advantage of the online/app promos. I usually pickup two 5 dollar biggie bags and upgrade to a large drink and fries each are then like 7 or so dollars making me eligible for their 3 dollars off promo so in the end I pay 12 bucks for everything. Sad that fast food has gotten so expensive that a small family can easily spend 50 or more dollars on what should realistically be a 30 dollar meal, so I’m hopeful that more places implement these value oriented deals.

Where I am, the only fast food restaurant that regularly offers a value meal is Burger King. You get 2 small burgers (they vary which kind every so often; the best is when they offer the Big King Jr.) or 2 junior chickens (or 1 of each), small fries or small onion rings and a small drink. If you eat it in the restaurant, you can refill your drink as many times as you want to. Less than 2 years ago, they offered it for $4.99, then raised it to $5.99 and now it's $6.49 (Canadian dollars, of course). It's the best deal if you want to get relatively full without spending a lot of money. I just had it yesterday, but I wasn't wearing a lab coat when I ate it.

Thanks for the analysis. I would say that I love Cookout. I don't have one super close and found them while working out of my area several years ago. They are moving slowly more north and we drive to get it a couple of times per year. During my last visit I noticed that the tray had gone up in price significantly. Everything is these days so it makes sense, but I used to marvel at how I could get the tray with two sides (some of them nearly an entree on their own), swap out a milkshake (which are sooo good) and the total would be about $7. I figured they would be higher, but with recent price hikes I get it. Glad they came in tied for second with taste. 🙂

Cookout just lowered to $6.99 a tray now. You can also get 4 chicken quesadillas there on one tray because they have a “double up” option to make your sides one entree. That all comes with a drink too. Shit is wildly valuable and great, you need to make a stop in one if you travel to the southeast.

Cookout is hands down the best one. I understand you get more calories for your dollar at other places. But cookout tastes way better than any of the other places

I think something to consider is additional condiments. At Wendy's (at least where I am in Canada) additional toppings like lettuce, pickles, onions, and tomatoes, are all free. You could up the value of some of these meals for no additional cost. And also, maybe who has the best mobile offers. I frequent Wendy's so I'll use them again, but usually every week they'll have a $1 large fry or free medium fry with purchase. I can get large fries and a double junior bacon cheeseburger (with pickles and onion added for free) for just a few dollars. And Wendy's is bangin' here too so it works out.

Steak n Shake has been doing these $4 meals for YEARS. They used to be the absolute king for fastfood imo. $4 could get you a triple steakburger, large fries, and a cookie. I liked not getting a drink included, because then I can save value and bring water or something from home. Or you can get the Shake, which before 4pm were half off. So like $3 for a really good large shake. For sure the old kings of this market
