Why Did McDonald's Get SO Expensive?

Loyal Theorists, did you know that there was a McDonald's Big Mac priced at $18! Yes, $18! And we thought the $5 meal deal was a high price... But why has the franchise, who has always been seen as inexpensive, suddenly raised prices? Is it inflation? Or is there something deeper happening with their McNuggets, fries, and burgers?
