Regardless of wages in your country, how many "minutes" do you have to work in order to buy a hamburger, french fires, and a soda drink?

If you don't have those, cite a normal lunch.

Some places in US, a worker on minimum wage, would have to work about 75 minutes, after taxes.
A lunch plate may require one to work 90 minutes or more.
This can be more or less in some areas.

If you would like to use some other product, do so, but please indicate the hours worked to pay for it.
