KFC

KFC... Then and Now...

Then : 21 pieces of chicken... $4.95

If they had a 21 piece bucket today 

Based on current inflation / prices/piece

It would cost  $52

Inflation rate $4.95 x 7.8 = $38.60 today 

Compared to KFC inflation 

Today a 21 piece bucket would cost $52.

10.5 times.

What should be $38.60 would cost $52.00

Much more than normal inflation.

Add to this:

The pieces of chicken are much smaller.

Original is greasy... Crispy is dry.

A roasted is not too good either. 

But then again...

Very little is as good as it once was.

Final thoughts: 

I fully understand my grandfathers thoughts on prices when he got older. 
I feel the same way today,  as I'm older.

OMG... IT COSTS HOW MUCH? !!!

LUKE... I HAVE BECAME MY GRANDFATHER. 

21 pieces of chicken $4.95

~~~ OMG ~~~

Today... $52.00
