While Starbucks fueled many a business meeting with assorted caffeinated products and snacks, the next most popular dining destination for employees was none other than McDonald’s, which raked in about 12,420 transactions averaging $6.73, followed by Subway, which recorded 8,627 transactions.

Average bills there clocked in at $11.88. ................(more)

working on their computers or meeting clients can afford to pay $5.00 for a Venti Carmel Macciato Lattes or whatever. I thought I was just being cheap drinking a tall regular coffee for $1.50.
