I know you can make it yourself, but that's not what I'm talking about. Texas barbecue places used to offer affordable family meals. That's no longer the case for the most part. Franklin almost singlehandedly drove up prices in less than a decade, to the point where it's almost $100 or more to feed the family after church even at a standard (not upscale) place like Rudy's.

It's like what Starbucks did to the coffee market. It created a mass market for expensive coffee (whether or not you think it's good) and now even the crummiest coffee is three times as expensive.

I'm a capitalist, so I get it. But that doesn't mean I like it.
