163 - Fast Food Economics: The Wendy’s Burger Bundle Review

In this episode of The Barn Philosopher, Shelby and Ridge return to the lab — or at least the studio table — to test out Wendy’s burger bundles. Having tried them before, the guys wanted to see what had changed. The price has gone up, but surprisingly the quantity hasn’t suffered the usual fate of shrinkflation. With burgers in hand and curiosity in full swing, they break down the value, the portions, and whether the deal still holds up. Of course, no barn food review would be complete without a little science. Using weight measurements and their completely proprietary Pee Rating™ system, Shelby and Ridge attempt to bring hard data to the world of fast food menu deals. It’s part taste test, part economics lesson, and part two guys trying to be very serious about hamburgers. If you enjoy the occasional scientific approach to fast food, share this episode with a friend.
