Chili’s took a shot at fast-food prices on social media and received a lot of love in return.
X user @YellowFlashGuy posted a photo of a menu showing what appeared to be a Bacon King sandwich meal, including french fries and a drink, priced at $18.19 at one Burger King location. The sandwich alone was listed for $12.99.
“Why should I get this when I could just go to a restaurant?” @YellowFlashGuy captioned the image. “The food would be close to this price, and better.”

Most Burger King restaurants are locally owned and operated by franchise operators, according to the chain’s website.
Prices and participation vary by location, Burger King says. Fox News Digital reached out to Burger King for comment.
Chili’s response was viewed over 5 million times and gained a substantial number of positive reactions.
