    There are still some things to unwind here. Breakfast pizza, dirt cheap “meal”, advertising “mega” for what appears to be a normal sized slice.

        This appears to be a Casey’s gas station. Caseys is known for having pretty decent pizza and being in every tiny town dotted across America (plus being open very late/early if not 24 hours). By memory the pizza is priced at $3-4 per slice. Sure you can buy a $3 frozen Jacks pizza but it won’t be as good.

        It’s worth remembering that fountain sodas cost next to nothing for businesses. It’s just flavoring syrup, water and a big bottle of CO2 to carbonate the water packaged up in a semi-automated self-serve machine

          I think it’s worth noting that the pizza I’m mentioning in eu is a oven made one, not a frozen anything A whole pizza, for like 10-12$ converted in €

            You can get a whole pizza for that price in the U.S. too. Less even. Just not at Casey’s.

              I’ve got to ask, seeing as it’s an U.S. pizza - is it ACTUAL pizza, or the usual cardboard with pepperoni on top your country seems to love?

            You don’t even get ice in your drinks, you can’t compare. And $12 is 3x that price and I’d have to pay for water in the EU

                I’ve never been given free water anywhere in the EU and I’ve been to a large number of the countries. You are high as fuck if you think they aren’t charging for water. One of the many reasons I hate Western Europe, but certainly not the only one.

              In the EU you’d also get REAL pizza, as opposed to cardboard with fake 3rd rate meat on top.

                It’s funny how you think all pizza in the US is from Pizza Hut.

                You do know the US food culture and depth of quality dwarfs whatever country you are from, right? That’s the problem with so many Europeans. They don’t understand the size of the US. You can’t grasp the fact that just one of our fifty states can be more diverse than your entire country. Even the largest EU member is smaller than Texas, just one of the states.

                  “US food culture” is a melting pot from which about half of it is originated from Europe, the other half from other parts of the world.

                  You should be wary trying to school other people about culture when your country is 500 years old, I’ll just ignore you now, because “eurotrash” is the only thing you’re gonna be able to muster as an answer anyway.
