First of all, let’s try to avoid American-bashing, and stay respectful to everyone.
I’ll start: for me it’s the tipping culture. Especially nowadays, with the recent post on !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world with the 40% tip, it just seems so weird to me to have to pay extra just so that menu prices can stay low.
It shouldn’t indeed, but then you have service charges you cannot opt-out of such as here https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/1840098
Then I take my business elsewhere. That’s deceptive pricing.
