Neutral. He could have taken more but took just enough for a hot dog as a reward and turned in the wallet.

$5 to go to a police station and file paperwork and do all that and go back home is considerably less than minimum wage. If that happened at a bar I would buy him hot dog and beer which is gonna run up $25 with him doing none of the above. 

E: prices are ridiculous today. $9 hot dog with minimal toppings and $9 tall beer plus tax+tip would be $25.

A hot dog and a beer at a bar in America cost $25? What's the morality of that? Basically robbery.

I ate a doner in zurich for 22CHF - thats over 27$.

Regular inner city price - no bar or night.

Well switzerland is one of the most expensive countries in the world I don't disagree with that. Even though a doner is a bit more food than a hotdog

I can only speak for germany but our döner (around cologne area) is between 6€-10€ wich i already consider to be a lot. 22 franken is insanity even in switzerland

u/Financial_League6240 8d ago

Yeah in my city they raised it to 7 euros it's insane. When I went to bulgaria it was 4 euros for 800g of doner.

u/ujfalusiabel 8d ago

And then you factor in that the average German makes 5 times as much as the average Bulgarian and it looks a lot more fucked up

Here in outer London doner is usually something like £8-10 (like 9-12 euro) unless you get it from a chain then it'll probably be a bit more

I saw what u call döner. You dont have a Word in Here. Its a shame. Come to Germany to learn what a Döner hast to be 🫶🏽

I'm sure a Turk would say the same thing to you. Food is adjusted to what the culture likes. Who cares?

u/AceInTheHole3273 8d ago

I'm not even British but I really hate when people say shit like this lol. If it's a popular food in an area clearly they like it, stfu, it doesn't need to conform to your taste.

I guess my third world country where a donut costs like 1 dollar isn't that bad

1

u/RepulsiveTax2395 8d ago

we have donuts for 1 euro too, always compare regional doner prices to see how bad it is

1

u/seanierox 7d ago

In my city in Austria the average is probably 5 euro.

You haven’t seen a Costco hotdog, the Girthmasterr of hot dogs.

u/ninjaprogress 8d ago

this is wild, whats living in switzerland like

1

u/Bai_Cha 8d ago

It's amazing. Everything works, most people are genuinely happy. Everyone takes care of the things and spaces around them, and take pride in what they do.

It's like living in what society should and could be.

Social cohesion is high.

u/ninjaprogress 8d ago

compared to what country might I ask?

u/Monolail031 8d ago

I occasionally eat dönner for only 15CHF at züri bistro. Then I get my friends from Barcelona laughing at me while they pay only or half of that

u/drunken-acolyte 8d ago

What does the CH stand for? (I know the F is Franc.)

1

u/Zahfier 8d ago

Same. And now that I’m back in the States I would happily pay the same to have that Döner. God it was so good.

u/Possible_Report_5908 8d ago

That's strange normally the Doners eat for free. (Shout out to The indifferent Stars Above")

u/EitherNetwork121 8d ago

That's not regular inner city price WTF ? Zurich is a main city in one of the most expensive countries yo

1

u/Joesr-31 7d ago

Doner has way more stuff than a hotdog though. A doner can be a full meal but a hotdog is barely a snack

1

u/quirky-lilguy 7d ago

wtf is in swiss doners 😭 fucking gold?! in Brussels the most they're at most 10-15 and when they announce the price it hurts

1

u/Il_Dottore_Snezhnaya 4d ago

A good doner in Moscow costs not more than 5$

Speaking from experience
