- blakesterz 4y agoThere's a more current "Big Mac Index" here, Switzerland seems to still be on top: https://www.economist.com/big-mac-index https://www.economist.com/big-mac-index Wikipedia has a decent explainer too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Mac_Index https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Mac_Index
- Idk__Throwaway 4y agoNice! Thanks. Looks like my numbers were a bit off due to being out of date. To anyone who wants to know, currently the Swiss Big Mac is 35.4% more expensive than the US one.
