I’m in Northwest Arkansas and the most expensive burrito (before modification) is the Cantina Chicken Burrito at $5.99. I’m curious how this number changes across different locations.

I am in Canada and the most expensive burrito is the cantina chicken burrito at $10.19. 😢

You can change the location in your app, but I am here anyway. Most expensive is cantina at Union station and the one on 14th Street NW coming in at 7.59.
The one at the Pentagon doesn’t have online ordering so I can’t compare it.

Minimum wage here is $7.25 with the most expensive burrito costing $5.49
So fact check says….this is false! Even if it was years ago.
Cross checking with McDonald’s in California who has the $15 wage. Deluxe breakfast with muffin costs $8.99. Over here it costs $5.99

My orders are now $20+ sadly

I’m in NC and $6.99 is the most expensive burrito

These tweets gotta be like 5 years old. Back then that price was probably accurate
How about we pay people more and just lower our profits from 10 billion to 9 billion I feel like they won’t really notice a difference…. all this saying things will be more expensive is only because the ones on the top are greedy. And that goes for any business not just tacobell.

At my Taco Bell in Texas where the minimum wage isn’t $15, a burrito supreme is $5.39….

I’m in Washington state, in a city under the state minimum wage of $16.28/hour. My local Taco Bell’s most expensive burrito is the Cantina Chicken Burrito at $7.19

The most expensive burrito at my SoCal store is the Cantina Chicken burrito, at $6.49. The cheapest burrito is Cheesy Bean & Rice, at $1.69. Workers are all paid $20 an hour here.

So, we do know this is probably a decade old, right?

OP could have just opened the app and changed their zip code to a DC zip code…

I’m skeptical of a single item at Taco Bell costing over two man-hours each anyway
birdlady404
Yeah Taco Bell went up 400% in my area and we don’t get $15 per hour. Prices just go up and nobody gets paid more.

Bean burrito in DC is 279, cantina chicken is 759
talks-a-lot
As pointed out, it’s old. But for reference, the most expensive burrito at my location in Silicon Valley (that has a $20 minimum wage) is $6.69. So no, paying fast food workers a reasonable wage does not lead to $30 burritos
A damn cheese quesadilla…no chicken or anything, cheese only….was $6.79 the other day when I went thru Taco Bell. I couldn’t believe it.

A Grilled Cheese Burrito at my local is almost $6. If a burrito at Taco Bell D.C. is less than $4 I might need to move
PixelSteel
Did a quick fact check, the most expensive “burrito” from Taco Bell in DC is $5.89 double steak grilled cheese burrito. Even though this post is old, it looks like the price went up when min wage went up in DC. Also, both of the people tweeting are dumb
