      It astounds me how drastic prices vary in the US.

      Like sure, we (Australia) also have higher and lower cost areas, but the difference is not this staggering.

      $40 USD for a large pizza? You’ve got to be kidding me.

      And I’m betting there will be places in the US where the same is like $12-15 for the same quality/quality, right?

      That’s nuts.

        Theres a massive difference between the boonies, a medium city, a large city, and an affluent city, and a huge difference between those places in california, texas, utah, colorado, ohio, georgia, etc.

        Every state is basically a country of its own, and about the size of one

        $40 and tip.

        I cant get lunch in Dallas under $25, unless I hit chick-fil-a.

        Incredible, I thought NYC was expensive back in 2016.
