it still costs money to make a burger at home, considering you purchased the ingredients...?

call me crazy but i love the burgers at Peco's Bill's at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World. It might be the "fixin's bar" that wins me over though....

Fancy Restaurant comes in under $8??? Where, in Australia? I wonder where they get their data. Mediocre restaurant burgers cost at least $10 here in NYC. The decent ones start at around $14 and go up from there. Also, home made costs under $1??? This insane.

I don't think the graph is completely scientific, people.

This graph clearly doesn't take into account the following:

- Awesome fast food burgers, like those from Taylor's Refresher, or In-N-Out
- The fact that a fancy restaurant isn't fancy if its burgers are under $10
- The fact that a homemade burger made for $1 can't be anything but nasty

But, aside from the GLARING snub of fast food burgers, I can accept the relationships here... :-)

Deliciousness -- LOL, what's a county fair? Growing up in Upstate, some of the best burgers I had were made at bowling allies!

@gastronomeg: Wouldn't that just be a straight line at 0? Hardy har har. :P

Taylor's is not fast food, it is a local drive-in (setting aside the Ferry Market location). Drive-in burger places are not on the graph, but should be, at the $6 and great/good axes (unless the burger in question is the Taylor's ahi burger, which should be in the over $10 and beyond great ranges).

gastronomeg, HA! And touche, Adam. It seems that way sometimes, doesn't it? ;)

Everyone: This is clearly designed by a sixteen-year-old, given that homemade burgers from mom's refrigerator are free, and super-fancy is an $8 diner burger.
