#California #Inflation #Burrito
And they are $15 in SW Ok. Insanity
Biden is a failure
Completely untrue. The journalist should be jailed.
If we don’t stand up to this and start asking questions, it is going to get worse. Corporations want to squeeze all every penny and dime.
Need to shop Costco bro.
No it’s not
Thats not covid, maybe during the peak but not now. That just inflation due to schizo Joe
Nope! I would make my own and take it to work and heat it up in sanswich press
No onions on this planet are 80.00 a sack
Jesus Christ Loves You And He Wants A Personal Relationship With You ❤
I own a restaurant and this guy is a liar
Yall please take your business to La Corneta in Glen Park or El Farolito at 24th and Mission. Support the local taquerias that don’t price gouge even though their burritos are truly worth their weight in gold.
These kids are so brainwashed
He’s full of $hit
That’s a bunch of BS. No burrito is worth 22.00.people are stupid if they pay that much. The owner deserves Togo out of business. He is ripping people off big time.
What I want to know is the name of the restaurant, so I never go purchase food there ever. In San Francisco there are several good burrito spots especially in the Mission district.
That lil girl they interviewed clearly does not have a mortgage, car note and kids😢wth?
That burrito is big enough to feed 4 people.
Thank you Joe Biden
vote trump
Biden has no clue what he’s doing. He needs to go.
You know of course there is someone out there buying the burrito like well just cuz you can’t doesn’t mean I can’t!
If that’s what it takes to support other people’s dreams sounds like it comes from someone who doesn’t have to worry about money.
That silly girl who doesn’t have to worry about paying ‘a little bit more’ so others can reach their dreams…… is totally clueless!
Buffet, Musk, Zuck, et al——- they ALL worry about money!!! And they worry they are paying YOU— WAY TOO MUCH!!!
BECAUSE THEY ARE!!!
The guys who were making $300 000, after being unemployed for 6 months, will ‘suddenly’ be quite happy to work for half that amt!!! And even less!!!
While that girl might be happy to pay ‘a little more’ her employer is figuring out how to pay HER, a whole lot LESS!!!
When that happens she will suddenly be confronted with the 1st, basic tenent of capitalism/economics—– supply and demand rules all!
Whether supply or demand is elastic or inelastic, it factors into how much you ultimately get paid!!!
SF is about to have an economic earthquake! Again!
Tech is just not a stable industry. And the top 100 people can only buy so many houses. Or eat so many meals. Buy so many cars, watches, or $160 t-shirts. They can not keep everything else going by themselves, economy wise!
SF has built its city on digital, slippery, quicksand! But no one is paying any attention to that! Are they???
“Oh, it’ll never stop!!!”
HAA!!!
Where is this girls contact information because I have dreams also and she’s said she’s happy to pay to support them .
Well it sounds like some customers are willing to pay higher prices. I’m not sure what the issue is. If they’re pricing themselves out of the market then they’ll see a hit.
Why charge $22 for 1 burrito
Lol this dude is a god for goin on video saying this.
Restaurant where is live charges that much for am asada birrito same thing stuff has doubled well one reason we don’t go there. The.one down the road from them is alot cheaper and better food
Leave California it’s cheaper everywhere but there
First problem is he’s shopping at restaurant depot. He could definitely find cheaper suppliers.
People paid 11$ for a burrito? 😂
I could make that same burrito for $5 or less at home lol
Sensationalizing inflation?
I had a craving for a burrito last month, and it was $15.00.
I wasn’t happy, but i undersrand.
Everyone wants $15-25 minimum wage, thinking its going to somhow improve your lives when it only gets worse.
The items haven’t actually gone up, greed has so the prices for everything have spiked. STARVE THE RICH
Y’all complaining about capitalism? Can’t afford it, don’t eat it. What you eat don’t make me 💩
yawn no one cares about what you just said
@@midgethobbit5243 thank you for taking time boo boo 😘
@@dormir01 i sell $50 toenails, can you bend over to protect me too?
When they run out of their parents money then those kids will care or starve.
Move out.
The only generation where we can afford a $22 burrito but can’t afford to move out our parents house
These aren’t the majority who can’t afford rent. These are the privileged buttholes making oodles off of IT or whatever
He is lying he is getting away with those outrageous prices because he sells to the college students or hipsters that have money to them paying 30 for a burrito is nothing 😄 most of these restaurants buy cheap steak they overcharge people and make alot of profit
I give you…
*THE BIDEN BURRITO!*
In SF it’s probably a dck filled burrito.
Eat at home!
He can do what he wants.What bugs me is this seems to be a sympathy piece. You can think Im stupid all day just don’t talk to me like Im stupid. Poor business owner has no choice. The doubling of the prices are not his fault… he’s the victim of over priced onions. Just listen to this Jen Z girl… its ok to pay more to help this business owner fulfill his dreams. 🤮
I know a spot in the bay thats not even 13 bucks for 3 super tacos any choice of meat
Offer them $9 and see what happens.
Reminds me of the days I sold lemonade on the street corner. $10 a glass. I only had to sell one glass. Brilliant!
Get a new distributor you are being ripped off.
STOP VOTING FOR DEMOCRATS!!!
“A little bit more”??? That’s the kind of answer you get from someone who has probably never worked a day in her life and has mommy and daddy paying all her bills.
Who was President during all these increases?
I cant believe how sheepid that girl is sacrificing HER money “to support this restaurant’s dreams”
So blatant lying in video😅?
Everything going up except pay
And the price is up because the farmers can’t get cheap workers from Mexico to harvest them. Now they have to pay at least minimum wage and check documentation.
That’s Bidenomics for you!
What yall fail to realize is food cost makes a huge difference in the process of your food. Just not going to that restaurant is not going to make anywhere else any cheaper because ingredients are still expensive.
DON’T BE OK WITH IT! That’s the problem with you people, you don’t stand up for yourselves.
Its California turd
$80!!!!!! For onionnn!!!! Is that some gold or diamond onion !!!
That poor young woman believing this man. Foolishly supporting his business of price gouging.😂
Rice and beans cheapest food on the planet
OK restaurant man charging $22 for a burrito I hope you’re ready to pay a $100 every week to get your yard cut 300 for an oil change. Cause the moment you bottom feeders start raising your prices everything else goes up
They will be out of buisness… rightfully so.
Hey is that near UCSF? Loved that burrito joint!
Walk down the street to EL FARLITO and get your massive “mission” burrito for around $10. — why he shopping at Restaurant Depot? Why not strike a deal with the loca mexican migrant workers in Watsonville or any local immigrant farm in the greater bay area? Commercial corporate businesses don’t do much for the economy. Plus you’re in SF so why not be more local, immigrant friendly instead of slaving away to the big corporations? — Those young liberals don’t even realize they are supporting a big huge capitalist. — cross your fingers, if Trump wins we can get out burritos down to a reasonable affordable price for everyone! 🙏
If inflation means price gouging. And doable the price of ingredients doesn’t mean double the price of final product… profit margins have become absurd. $22 for a burrito needs to be in a nice restaurant not a Chipotle
There is more than the cost of the ingredients. The guy needs to cover wages, rent on the building, electricity etc. That is the information used to come up with the prices of food as well as the ingredients.
Owner is lying his pants off 😂.
His onion dealer needs to make up for lost profits back when Shrek slandered his business.
The girl at 0:30 sounds like someone who isn’t spending — or earning — her own money. Or maybe she’s hanging her hopes on Biden’s student loan forgiveness.🤔
So ask a young lady who clearly has never paid a bill in her life, and still is on her parents cell phone plan.
Oh so Vancouver prices then.
Pay a little more to keep a failing restaurant afloat? No thanks.
Ppsshhh….if you can afford to live in SF and eat there normally, what’s $11 extra 0_o
😂😂😂😂😂 i am sorry but it is NOT OK! it is RIDICULOUSLY overpriced and you should not spend that kind of money for lunch! What do you do for a living?
Everyone in this video is out of their mind.
Make your own burrito for a fraction of the price 😂 Entitlement is a hefty price to pay 🎉
I love the girls answer if it goes up we will just pay it, the word of the day is sustainability. Now what does that mean, it means that this cannot last because it does not work. I just worry for the American dollar as an American, everyday it’s buying power just becomes less and less
There’s NO burrito ANYWHERE worth $22. Nor is there a sack of onions worth $80.
The owner lying his azz off😂😂😂😂
That’s what Immigration Reform will get you. From Farm to Table a $22 🌯
How many of his customers are Ok with that and how many customers will just start eating at home?
It’s suckers like her that allows business to double their price with no backlash.
80 dollars? Go to a different store dude. Its less than that at Wal-Mart
That is bull, onions are cheap. Meat has gone up but not to justify doubling the prices
Guess what?? We no longer serve onions😂😂🎉
We normally pay around 20$ for just ordinary, regular, off-the-menu burritos; what’s the shock here? 🤷♀️
Complete bull 💩! No bag of onions is $80. This is price gouging plain and simple!! Greed!!
That’s a firm no. The owner can shop at Costco business center for better produce prices.
Keep paying those prices and the price will keep going up
As long as they keep delusional customers like her they won’t go out of business. Otherwise, I hope they’re prepared for the next dream they may have. This one’s over.
You can make it 120$, I’m always going to buy it w my credit card doesn’t matter like tf I’m gonna do, not eat ?
I wouldn’t pay $11 for a burrito much less $22.
I think I’ll quit my job and become an onion farmer to gouge the gullible. 🤔
Young people are so ignorant to issues
Everything is fine as long as you have money
Well they did say in CALIFORNIA 😂
Bs, inflation hasn’t made things go up 400 – 800%
Full of shyt
