Cooking burgers at home is going to be three times cheaper than celebrating Independence Day at a restaurant this year, according to an analysis from Wells Fargo Agri-Food Institute.
The cost of ingredients for a home-cooked, quarter-pound hamburger is substantially lower than what you'll pay for the same size burger at a restaurant this July Fourth. A burger cooked at home, including cheese, tomato and lettuce will cost $2.16, with labor costs subsidized by family or friends, of course.
By contrast, that same classic sandwich at a restaurant will cost $6.95 on average, according to the report, which analyzed burger prices at five fast-food restaurants.
Vice President Kamala Harris is set to visit Douglas, Arizona, on Friday, marking her first trip to the U.S.-Mexico border since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee. Harris will deliver remarks to call for tougher border security measures as part of her efforts to address border issues, according to a senior campaign official.
