Fast food prices
On the road, we eat out more often. Last 6 mo I've noticed prices have really gone up. Just me or have you noticed this also?

More important than the ever escalating prices is that ALL, EACH and EVERY single piece of food from a fast food restaurant is riddled with MSG. Why do you think those fries taste so good!
THAT is the only reason it tastes good to the palette. It's not the food it's how much MSG they put in it. And it is a lot.
Monosodium glutamate E621, or MSG, is the salt form of the amino acid glutamate. MSG is added to almost all foods to enhance flavor.
All you have to do is google side effects of MSG.
If you thought that headache was just from the days frustrations, drowsy because you've been driving too long, asthma acting up, waking up with swollen feet hands and face and contributing it to your blood pressure/heart, etc? Think about what AND where you "ate" previous to experiencing it.
I eliminated all MSG in my diet. Home prepared and fast food consumption completely after experiencing the above. Which I too wrote off to other issues. Until my doctor suggested I start charting what I ate and when the symptoms occurred. the chart pointed to fast food consumption/MSG.
So now I am very sensitive to it and just one hamburger from any fast food restaurant gives me a migraine headache and my hands and feet swell up the next morning. That's how much is in just one sandwich. AND go to the grocery store and read the labels and try and find anything without MSG added to it.
"..responsible restaurants and food manufacturers no longer use MSG as a flavor enhancer, and have switched to natural seasonings instead...
Something you will 'not' find a fast food restaurant ever doing. :(
