Fast food getting more expensive as minimum wages rise - Business Insider

Chains including Texas Roadhouse and Habit Burger mentioned recent or upcoming price increases in presentations at the ICR Conference in Orlando, Florida, earlier in January. The cost of food away from home increased 2.8% in 2018, according to data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The Department of Labor anticipates prices to grow another 2 to 3% in 2019.

The cost of eating out has been ballooning for years. Median fast-food hamburger prices have increased by 54%, while chicken sandwich prices have jumped by 27%, Bloomberg reported in December, citing Datassential data.

The rising prices come as minimum wages increase.

"Every cost in the business is a challenge," Chipotle CEO Brian Niccol said. "The good news is we have a model that we can invest in our labor. And, we will use sales growth coupled with some pricing to handle it."

Rising minimum wages have contributed to a significant increase in the cost of dining out, especially in relation to food you can buy at grocery stores. In 2018, the cost of food at home grew just 0.6%, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data.

But, the battle to keep prices low can't continue forever. While chains will continue to tout deals — especially bundled offers like 4 for $4 or $5 boxes— customers will likely find themselves paying more for their burgers and burritos in 2019.

Feelings about Biden aside, although this stuff would help him in a general election, the Dem primaries would eat him alive for this.

For 2020 the big entertainment this time around will be watching the Dem primaries. It's going to be a bloodbath.

Biden is an idiot but he is old enough and smart enough to know this new wave of democrats won't play. He is trying to get to the middle and the democratic party is not going to allow that. You are right, there are so many people in play right now this is going to turn into a gladiator event

Dude. You have no credibility. You use IGA mayo. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with you. You probably use Miracle Whip as a salad dressing.

Off-duty St. Louis police officer killed in 'accidental shooting' involving two other officers

An off-duty St. Louis police officer was killed in an "accidental shooting" early Thursday in another officer's home, officials said.

The victim, a 24-year-old woman, was at a home in Carondelet with two on-duty officers just after 1 a.m. CT (2 a.m. ET) when the shooting happened, Chief John Hayden said at a news conference outside St. Louis University Hospital where she died.

Hayden said two male officers went to one of their homes during their shift. The female officer stopped by and at some point was accidentally shot in the chest, he said. The two other officers took her to the hospital.

The chief said police are working to determine whose gun was used and if it was a service weapon. He would not comment on what happened at the home at the time of the shooting or why the three officers were there. There was no call for service before the shooting.

When asked Thursday about a police vehicle outside the hospital that has a broken back window, Hayden would only say it is being investigated.

The incident is being classified as an “accidental shooting,” Hayden said.

The officer who died was with the department for a little more than two years. The on-duty officers, both 29, have also been with the department for about two years. Their names have not been released.
