An eight piece bucket at KFC runs thirty four dollars in Canada right now, and the family size version tops seventy five. Shane Hewitt & the Nightshift went hunting for where fast food still counts as a deal, using a Canadian YouTuber's breakdown that ranked every major chain's value meal and landed on a surprise winner in Wendy's.

Tim Hortons came out as the clear budget champion, with a bagel, large coffee, and hash brown totalling nine dollars for a genuinely filling breakfast. Shane Hewitt & the Nightshift also tracked down a site called Price My Meal that compares meal costs across chains by country, showing McDonald's, Burger King, and Wendy's all landing within a couple dollars of each other.

The bigger picture: fast food prices are up three to five percent year over year, and a burger, fries, and drink now costs about the same as a sit-down meal at a local sandwich shop.
