@josephfrancaeats: 1950’s minimum wage meal

Flex & Fable | Travel & Health :

The steak and bacons portions probably weren’t that big.

wogsbdodh :

Wdym federal minimum wage is $7.25 a hour i’am getting $16 a hour at my part time?

Keyboard Warrior :

Cool, now compare the median wage. Hell, compare the 25th percentile wage. I know where my money will be on which side comes out on top.

MH :

So minimum wage has only gone up $6.50 in 76 years?

Now add inflation

Cowboy :

Are you challenging me to make a modern day minimum wage meal??

Daniwaxwitch :

It must’ve been so nice to live in an era where the American dollar was worth something

Soro Sunn :

American heart attack plated in the best way possible

Kira 🧸🪻 :

in Australia you could’ve bought that for an hour of work

HX3 :

I think there wasn't any place cheaper in history of humankind to live than America in 50s in Poland where I live it would cost me half day of work 😭😭😭

Pierrot :

I apologize for asking weird questions but does seasoning the skin of the potato do anything to the flavor? I always thought it would’ve been useless because you don’t usually eat the skin

user7310383846019 :

29% of the population were considered impoverished the first time the govt ever calculated a poverty rate in 1959 (today it’s like 13%). How exactly is the math mathing that somehow u think a guy on minimum wage could afford this in just an hour back then when almost a third of ppl lived beneath the poverty line?

Zodiax :

Lies steak was 85 to 90c in 1950per lbs that looks like a 16oz steak so no one hour wouldn’t even cover the steak

belandstudio :

$18 to make? Where do you live? Ground beef is $12 a pound. 🤨

tiktokerz549 :
