My definition? It's a combination of things, and health is not one of them (at least not a big one). It's mostly a mix of the price, the amount, and the taste. Double cheeseburgers are two [albeit small] patties and two slices of cheese, and for its very decent taste and $0.99 cent cost, it was matched up with Little Caesar's pizza as the best valued fast food in the country IMO. Subway's $5 foot long sandwiches were a good jump too, especially when I'm a Subway Club guy (only now it's 8 great subs, meaning the Club is off the list, and the 20% + increase makes me buy it much less often than I used to).
Anyway, don't look at it as 20 cents, look at it as 20%. That's a big increase any way that you look at it, and over time, and cents add up. Why settle for something that, to me now, is of much lesser value when I can go somewhere else? Like I said, Jack In the Box has a cheeseburger deluxe here at SDSU for $1.25. I prefer the taste, and it fills me up about the same. That to me now has better value.
I'm not really trying to argue with anybody here, I just don't think anyone sees the true point I'm trying to make.
