Really, that's a real shame if it is. I havent been back the US since late 2014. I remember walking around Manhattan near Times Square I think, just exploring and seen so many signs for $1 slice of Pizza, I think it tad more with some sales tax thing applied when I had one, another breakfast time I got bagel with cream cheese from one of the vans I think near one of the big banks near wall street I think $1.50-$2.00. I was staying in a top-end hotel courtesy of a company I was interviewing with but unsure of expense policy I just got the food around and about myself and found it extremely cheap if you were a little careful. How much has this changed? My memory of facts could be a little off, but I always had US down for cheap plates of mountains of food, and takeaways that were next to nothing price wise.

- jraby3 3y agoThere are still plenty of $1 slices in NYC. Same with $1 coffee and inexpensive bagels.
- snake42 3y agoThis is not true in my experience. Every pizza spot is at least up to $1.50 a slice. I have only lived here 2 years, but I never see a $1 coffee. https://www.today.com/food/news/nycs-2-bros-dollar-pizza-slices-rcna77180 https://citylimits.org/2022/07/28/how-much-does-a-bagel-cost-in-your-nyc-neighborhood/
