Cost of McDonald's, Wendy's, Chick-fil-A vs. Healthy Food

I made a grilled chicken sandwich from $10 a pound chicken and it is still costs less than a Chick-fil-A grilled chicken sandwich. That's not value. People tell me that they can't afford to eat high quality health food. But if you can afford fast food, you can afford to eat healthy food. To prove that point I purchased a McDonald's Bacon and cheese Angus burger, a Wendy's double with cheese hamburger and a Chick-fil-A chargrilled chicken sandwich. Then using high quality healthy ingredients I made the same sandwiches using Baucom's Best grass fed beef and pastured poultry, Rudy's organic buns, Horizon organic american cheese, uncured bacon and fresh vegetables. I was able to make the same hamburgers and chicken sandwiches for less. Better tasting healthy high quality food, for less. Here is how I did it. McDonald's Angus burger is 1/3 pound of beef. and Wendy's doulbe is 1/2 pound of beef. Chick-fil-A grilled chicken is 3.2 ounces. Here is the price per ingredient that I used for my calculations. Baucaoms Best ground beef $5.30 per pound. Baucoms Best pasture poultry $9.99 per pound. Organic bun $.62, organic cheese $.33 per slice, uncured bacon 1 1/2 strips $.54, onion $.05, pickles $.04, condiments $.04, tomato $.25 lettuce $.04. Using these high quality healthy food ingredients it is actually less expensive to eat good tasting real food than it is to eat fast food. Fast food isn't quality, healthy or a good value. The price is too high and the food quality is too low. http://www.BryanMarcel.com
