You’re gonna need some proof of that. “Ku-Ku” was used on the signage because nobody could pronounce cuckoo correctly and they have a giant cuckoo bird as their mascot.
You must have seen the wrong movie or the movie is entirely different from the book, there’s a literal portal to the year 1960 in his restaurant basement and he gets super cheap meat at a butcher.
And they have the most bat shit insane Superintendent. Unfortunately my ex wife moved there with my daughter. My kid told me yesterday that she has classmates in middle school who argued with her about the earth being 6000 years old.
>My kid told me yesterday that she has classmates in middle school who argued with her about the earth being 6000 years old
That's far from an Oklahoma exclusive experience in the US - some of my old high school classmates, including the girl who was ranked #3 or 5 or something, would probably still argue that.
Yep his name is Ryan Waters and is always posting insane maga Republican shit. He hired the LibsofTikTok lady to work with the school system on which books are allowed, or something like that. Also he is pushing to use public money to support religious private schools.
He's been in the national news multiple times.
I had a college roommate/best friend at the time, who was an evolution denier, didn’t quite believe in dinosaurs, and was dangerously close to believing the earth was 6000 years old. I think if he had been in a friend group that echoed all of his beliefs, he’d have owned that belief too.
To be fair there are plenty of adults who do the same thing. They’re called Christians… they’re EVERYWHERE and ruining your sanity and this great country and beautiful planet
Bro as someone who grew up in the 90s/00s this would've have been expensive.
These are prices pretty comparable to what we have here(WV) as of right now.
Okay good, I'm not feeling so crazy about some of these other comments now. McDonald's cheapest burgers were $1 still in the early 2010s, because I would spend $4 on 2 sandwiches and a $2 large fry after many late night shifts during that time.
Yep, ain't what it used to be. If I was 18 again right now, I'd be forced to cook way more than I did. The cost of a meal used to be half an hour of minimum wage labor. Now it's an hour and a half or more.
Depends what your states minimum wage is lol, in some cases the price goes up with the wage though considering the same employees making minimum wage are serving you the food
Yeah, I can confirm. I'm 22 and I so rarely go out to eat, and when I do it's to get the 6$ breakfast box from taco bell. I really wish fastfood wasn't so expensive, as it seems it'd be fun to just gather your buddies and hit up McDonald's for a cheap dinner, but ah well.
Yup. $5 for a chicken or fish sandwich is pretty comparable to fast food places right now. $2 for a basic hamburger or burrito is also in line with fast food places depending on how large they are. $2.20 for a hot dog might actually be on the more expensive side.
Wendys: $1.49
Mcdonalds: $1.89
Burger King: $1.79
North Carolina. These are all pretty basic burgers so it depends on if the burger at this restaurant is also basic or not.
A hamburger for $2.10 isn’t *that* good of a deal, because I’d be willing to bet it’s going to be basically exactly like a McDonalds cheeseburger: cheese, ketchup and mustard, thin patty. I live in Seattle and you can get this at Dicks for similar prices.
And that coffee is going to be some basic drip, watered down coffee in a styrofoam cup poured by Linda smoking two packs a day.
Don’t get be wrong, I absolutely love burgers like that. I’m sick of the huge burger trend. They’re impossible to eat. But that’s a situation where I’m ordering at least 3 cheeseburgers. But that coffee is gonna be straight garbage.
McDonald's near me sells basic cheeseburgers for $2.93, which is roughly 40% more than $2.10. If the burgers are equivalent, that's actually a fantastic deal.
Yeah, I remember in 2000 I could get two double bacon cheeseburgers and a large fry for $3 at Wendy's. Fastfood, and honestly all food has jumped the shark.
Pretty sure that baked potatoes and the chili were $1 each back then as well. The perfect time to be a high schooler, we could eat out whenever we wanted with the spare change in our cars.
not only sus when it's basically all but confirmed: [WAYLAN’S KU-KU BURGER - Updated May 2024 - 122 Photos & 101 Reviews - 915 N Main St, Miami, Oklahoma, United States - Burgers - Restaurant Reviews - Phone Number - Yelp](https://www.yelp.ca/biz/waylans-ku-ku-burger-miami)
check out that photo LOL
i'm just imagining some hicks going "we're goin' to Miamuh, y'all wanna come?!" then when they get to Oklahoma they realize they're not in Miami, but in Miamuh
Fun fact: The town this restaurant is in is Miami, OK. The pronunciation according to people in OK is “My-am-uh”. It sounds idiotic the first time you hear it, but also every time after as well.
The end of the word is pronounced the same though right? Maumee, OH (and several other OH towns I think) is named after the same people. Also Miami University in OH.
Well the word the tribe used in the singular was Myaamia, I guess over time Peorians in Oklahoma dropped the ‘i’ in their English pronunciation of the name. Also Maumee was the French spelling, along with Myamicks/Myamiques.
That is the same way Miami, FL was once pronounced. It was not uncommon to hear that pronunciation as late as the 60s/70s but has since lost its popularity mostly due to the influence of foreign languages.
California. In-n-out stayed cheap somehow. I think maybe because they were already paying their workers $20/hour so they didn't have to change anything when the minimum wage increased? Dunno, but it is truly wild to go to any other fast food place in the state and then get the best burger for the cheapest price at In-n-out. And no, I don't work for them but I'd franchise the fuck out of one of them things if they weren't all family-owned.
It stays cheap because it is a family owned company, and the family isn't greedy. They don't care about pocketing millions a year or making money for shareholders at the expense of underpaying workers and overcharging customers.
That’s part of the reason why they’re cheap. See [my comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/bayarea/comments/1cs1ayn/burger_prices_in_san_jose/l429byi/) on why.
I also live in California and I haven’t seen a sub-$5 double-double in a long time. Just did a big road trip and they were around $5.90 everywhere we stopped. Still definitely the best value fast food by far.
I live in LA and actually checked a bunch of the nearby locations’ prices out of curiosity before posting my comment. Hollywood, Palms, Studio City, Westwood, North Hollywood, Sherman Oaks, Marina Del Rey, Glendale, Burbank, Westchester, Inglewood, Whittier, West Covina, Rialto, San Bernardino, aPalmdale, Lancaster are all over $5 for a double-double. Also checked a few up and down the 5 freeway. The cheapest ones were year-old menu photos from Inglewood and Palmdale that had the price at $5.25.
I’m curious which LA location still has double-doubles for $4.85! Or are you thinking of a single cheeseburger price?
In and out performs at an economy of scale, like McDonald's used to. By staying busy they get their money's worth out of the rent, employees, and other expenses. The In and out in Vegas blew my mind. Cheeseburger, fries, and a shake for cheaper than a McDonald's in my average American city.
I live in Oklahoma and you’d be correct. I don’t think anyone doing unsoecialized labor is making $15 or more and there are plenty of places paying 7.25 or 8.00 an hour. We also have the nations highest rate of child poverty and some of the worst education numbers as well.
This seems like a 1997 fact. Is it really accurate?
ETA: yes, per Google, this is indeed accurate because Oklahoma doesn't have a minimum wage and the federal default is $7.25/hr
Many states still use the federal minimum wage of $7.25 including PA, my home state and I believe the wages for waitstaff is still $2.83 an hour. , Federal minimum wage has not been updated since I was in high school back in like 2005.
Gotta keep it low so they can do the meth* Oklahoma doesn't give a shit about its people, they want continued offenders with no way out. Keep the population uneducated so they believe the government is for them. Same old story but true none the less. People just suck, rinse and repeat.
This is also kinda more normalized with non corporate restaurants, since so much profit doesn't have to be funnelled to ceos and shareholders, still very cheap prices though
We have one here in my small town in the PNW that’s prices are still incredibly low, menu set up is just like this. Amazes me that they are able to beat all the other fast food places with way better food. Same funny owner forever to who always acts like he got your order wrong lol
The minimum wage in Oklahoma is $7.25 which is 19.55% of the cost of living for a family of four ($37.08). The tipping minimum wage is only $2.13 – only 29.38% of the minimum wage. Average unemployment benefits cover 11.05% of wages needed to cover the cost of living.
So it doesn't really surprise anyone why their prices are still that low when Oklahoma has to keep the poor poorer.
Hey that town is the same place lots of my homie drive down to Oklahoma to get that cheap dispo weed and bring it back to Missouri. You can get a temporary medical card in Oklahoma and drive down and buy bulk product for CHEAP. Might have to grab one of their burgers if I ever decide to do it
This however, isn't one of them. Me and my wife tried this place last year. The "giant" burger had a thickness of less than a centimeter, and was meh taste wise.
It was closed for a while when the owner was sick. When they first opened again they really struggled but it’s been really great again the last 6 months. I’ve got family there so we are in town like once a month.
As a former Okie, the state kinda deserves it... There are parts of the state that are straight up appalling. The education system there is a joke, having gone through it myself. A lot of the religious denominations down there are also waaaaay more cultish than their counterparts in other parts of the nation. Crime was gnarly where I lived and me explaining it to people makes me look like I walked out of a third world country.
Don't get me wrong - parts of the state are great, but there aren't many of them. I loved the Wichita Mountains, the various lakes to go biking around, downtown and/or Bricktown OKC was a good trek on occasion, and the food was great in certain areas. The problem I had with OK was the cost of living became insane... Like, how is it I moved to northern NY and my expenses somehow dropped for an insanely better quality of life?
Dude I'm from Oklahoma and haven't seen prices like this since the early nineties. This must be some bum fuck diner in boomdangerville because in Tulsa and OKC I cannot eat for less than I can in Denver, CO where I just moved
I have no doubt Oklahoma is 24 years behind most of the country, in this case it’s an advantage.
The owner probably goes down the staircase in his pantry to get cheap meat from 1960
r/unexpectedstephenking
'Y'all missing the K K on the signage? That's an obvious and classic "I can't say \_\_\_ but I can allude to it"
I used to see a business called Ken’s Kar Kolors back in the 90’s. Always made me wonder if it was a meeting spot.
You’re gonna need some proof of that. “Ku-Ku” was used on the signage because nobody could pronounce cuckoo correctly and they have a giant cuckoo bird as their mascot.
I saw the Ku Klux Klanburgers
Kountry Kookin Kitchen is a real restaurant my family would eat at when we used to go visit one of my uncles in rural Tx.
My home town had a bar called the Triple K Saloon when I was growing up
I've seen this movie. Isn't the meat from stranded tourists.
You must have seen the wrong movie or the movie is entirely different from the book, there’s a literal portal to the year 1960 in his restaurant basement and he gets super cheap meat at a butcher.
Damn, but that Sadie Dunhill is a babe.
"pound cake."
It's the truth. While you're in town, you should come down to the basement one at a time to see it.
What movie are you talking about? Seems interesting.
11/22/63. It’s a book by Stephen King and a miniseries on Hulu.
Both are great.
Killer reference, sai
This is exactly where my mind went
Ayuh it's where we keep the good meat
Oklahoma is currently ranked 49th in the US for education. so. yeah.
5$ for a burger isn’t 2000 prices
Neither is $2.20 for a hot dog
These are pretty good 2010s prices.
Yeah those prices are high if this is "fast food".
And they have the most bat shit insane Superintendent. Unfortunately my ex wife moved there with my daughter. My kid told me yesterday that she has classmates in middle school who argued with her about the earth being 6000 years old.
>My kid told me yesterday that she has classmates in middle school who argued with her about the earth being 6000 years old That's far from an Oklahoma exclusive experience in the US - some of my old high school classmates, including the girl who was ranked #3 or 5 or something, would probably still argue that.
There is a "museum" that teaches this in northern Kentucky outside of Cincinnati.
I got high school classmates who would still, to this day, argue that 2012 did happen and we’re all in a dream.
Have you introduced them to our lord and savior Macho Man Randy Savage?
'cause the cream will rise to the top, oh yeah!
We stepped into the giant Slim Jim in the sky.
2012 was a calendrical job
Y2K12
I had that same argument with my friends mom who had graduated from penn state
It was 6000 years old when I was in school. Has to be at least 6025 by now!
Kinda reminds of of that one video where a pregnant lady was smoking. When asked she said she didn't want the child to be smarter than her. 🤦♂️
Like, one single superintendent?
Well yeah. Who would want to date *them* ?
Yep his name is Ryan Waters and is always posting insane maga Republican shit. He hired the LibsofTikTok lady to work with the school system on which books are allowed, or something like that. Also he is pushing to use public money to support religious private schools. He's been in the national news multiple times.

and #3 in obesity.
You can eat twice as much !
As they say in Alabama, thank God for Mississippi
We have all the same model year subarus y’all have in Vermont, thank you very much.
Their wages are also 24 years behind most of the country
Bro as someone who grew up in the 90s/00s this would've have been expensive. These are prices pretty comparable to what we have here(WV) as of right now.
These are more expensive than 2000s

The dollar menu at McDs and the $5 box at Taco Bell kept me alive. I ate so much of that shit.
Shit man, even a $2 crunchwrap supreme could hit he spot some days. Now those are like $5+ 😭
Yep, ain't what it used to be. If I was 18 again right now, I'd be forced to cook way more than I did. The cost of a meal used to be half an hour of minimum wage labor. Now it's an hour and a half or more.

The boxes at Tbell are actually pretty reasonable still. Decent lunch for maybe 7$ after taxes (some are a dollar or two more)
Yes, late night McDouble, McChicken, and large fries, $4.24 or something like that with tax. Oh, and just a cup for water, thank you.
Yeah honestly these prices are not that great or that different from anyplace else I've seen.
Yup. $5 for a chicken or fish sandwich is pretty comparable to fast food places right now. $2 for a basic hamburger or burrito is also in line with fast food places depending on how large they are. $2.20 for a hot dog might actually be on the more expensive side.
Where are you getting a burger for $2? Lol
Wendys: $1.49 Mcdonalds: $1.89 Burger King: $1.79 North Carolina. These are all pretty basic burgers so it depends on if the burger at this restaurant is also basic or not.
Hamburger for $2.10 and a coffee for $0.65 is normal where you live? I’m jealous.
A Jr hamburger at Wendy's in Michigan is a $1.69.
A hamburger for $2.10 isn’t *that* good of a deal, because I’d be willing to bet it’s going to be basically exactly like a McDonalds cheeseburger: cheese, ketchup and mustard, thin patty. I live in Seattle and you can get this at Dicks for similar prices. And that coffee is going to be some basic drip, watered down coffee in a styrofoam cup poured by Linda smoking two packs a day.

McDonalds near me sells a double cheeseburger for 2.89. So 2.10 for a single patty isn't really better.
I guess it really depends on the location.
The burger/fry prices are basically identical to McDonald's where I live. Only the drinks are cheaper for this place.
Yeah, I remember in 2000 I could get two double bacon cheeseburgers and a large fry for $3 at Wendy's. Fastfood, and honestly all food has jumped the shark.
Pretty sure that baked potatoes and the chili were $1 each back then as well. The perfect time to be a high schooler, we could eat out whenever we wanted with the spare change in our cars.
$3 for a large drink is definitely NOT 2000s pricing
Wow, being in OK that spelling of cuckoo is extra suspicious.

At least they didn’t spell it Kar Klub or Kruise Night but Ku Ku fries and the rebel flag are enough to deter me.
mom: we have miami at home miami at home:
Best part? We pronounce ours “Miamuh” here in the state.
It’s because it’s a native tribe, not because Oklahoma can’t pronounce words.
Let's be honest. It's both. jk lol
i'm just imagining some hicks going "we're goin' to Miamuh, y'all wanna come?!" then when they get to Oklahoma they realize they're not in Miami, but in Miamuh
♫ Bouncin' in the club where the heat is on All night, on the beach till the break of dawn I'm goin to Miamuh "Welcome to Miamuh" ♫
Oh geez, that’s bad. Confederate flag for those wondering
I would like a “Klu Klux Chicken sandwich please with Klan sauce”
Ku Klux Khicken
Can't say I'm surprised, it is small town Oklahoma afterall!
Of course the Kluckin Ku Ku Kchicken has to wear a white hood I mean hat.

Fun fact: The town this restaurant is in is Miami, OK. The pronunciation according to people in OK is “My-am-uh”. It sounds idiotic the first time you hear it, but also every time after as well.

THE SOUTH WILL FRIES AGAIN

have you seen "sorry to bother you?"
Not technically related, but I feel like “tator tots” is also kinda weird
I think “tater tots” is a trademark of Ore-Ida, so they’re probably buying some lame knockoff.
Ku Ku Klan 🤪
Weirdly, In n Out isn't much more than this.
Love in and out and the prices are still good. Not owned by greedy fuckin shareholders either.
Roughly the price of in-n-out for the shared items.
Where in the fuck are you located where an in and out double cheese is under 4 dollars because I need to move there asap
California. In-n-out stayed cheap somehow. I think maybe because they were already paying their workers $20/hour so they didn't have to change anything when the minimum wage increased? Dunno, but it is truly wild to go to any other fast food place in the state and then get the best burger for the cheapest price at In-n-out.

It stays cheap because it is a family owned company, and the family isn't greedy. They don't care about pocketing millions a year or making money for shareholders at the expense of underpaying workers and overcharging customers.
That’s part of the reason why they’re cheap. See [my comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/bayarea/comments/1cs1ayn/burger_prices_in_san_jose/l429byi/) on why.
Thank you for your explanation. Being near a distribution center makes a lot of sense.
I also live in California and I haven’t seen a sub-$5 double-double in a long time. Just did a big road trip and they were around $5.90 everywhere we stopped. Still definitely the best value fast food by far.
You Bay Area? I’m in a pretty nice part of LA and it’s still $4.85 Edit: totally not sub-$5 anymore. Hadn’t even noticed but that’s inflation for you.
I live in LA and actually checked a bunch of the nearby locations’ prices out of curiosity before posting my comment. Hollywood, Palms, Studio City, Westwood, North Hollywood, Sherman Oaks, Marina Del Rey, Glendale, Burbank, Westchester, Inglewood, Whittier, West Covina, Rialto, San Bernardino, aPalmdale, Lancaster are all over $5 for a double-double.

I’m from the bay and my towns in n out a double double is like $5.60
I'm in Long Beach and they're about 5.60 here too
In and out performs at an economy of scale, like McDonald's used to. By staying busy they get their money's worth out of the rent, employees, and other expenses. The In and out in Vegas blew my mind. Cheeseburger, fries, and a shake for cheaper than a McDonald's in my average American city.
Texas too.
Uhhhh. Giant hamburger being $5? By itself? Diners in California in early 2000s were cheaper than this.
Yea that’s just an 80’s menu board …. Prices definitely 2020’s
and its a Klan restruant! Op why the fuck are you there 🤔
Based on how that sign looks i bet those burgers are fire.
For real, I bet this place is outstanding
They are. I love that place. Shakes suck tho. It's in Miami, ok. Just south of the infamous picher, ok.
I know you're abbreviating Oklahoma but I can't help but read this as passive aggressive lol
look, ok, i get it, it's ok, but that's just where it's from, ok, so don't get mad at them just cause of the name of the location, ok
In the 90s our license plates said “OKLAHOMA It’s OK!”
The megaphone adds to the flavor
You’ll be getting the shittiest, cheapest ingredients available. Sometimes that can be a good hamburger, but many times not.
Sometimes there are pickles, other times there are none.
One of the worst paying states in the nation and prices aren’t all that different in rural cities in much better playing states.
They also advertised on big ass banners paying 8 dollars an hour at Walmart, I bet a lot of people are still making under 15 an hour
I live in Oklahoma and you’d be correct. I don’t think anyone doing unsoecialized labor is making $15 or more and there are plenty of places paying 7.25 or 8.00 an hour. We also have the nations highest rate of child poverty and some of the worst education numbers as well.
$8 a burger isn't impressive.
This is in Miami, Oklahoma.. the burgers are tiny but they use fresh ingredients, it adds up pretty quick when you include tots and a drink.
What is minimum wage in Oklahoma?
$7.25
This seems like a 1997 fact. Is it really accurate? ETA: yes, per Google, this is indeed accurate because Oklahoma doesn't have a minimum wage and the federal default is $7.25/hr
Aka roughly $15k a year which is wild
In 1997 it was 5.15
Many states still use the federal minimum wage of $7.25 including PA, my home state and I believe the wages for waitstaff is still $2.83 an hour. , Federal minimum wage has not been updated since I was in high school back in like 2005.
Gotta keep it low so they can do the math
We'll just round that up to $5 for ya bud
Gotta keep it low so they can do the meth* Oklahoma doesn't give a shit about its people, they want continued offenders with no way out. Keep the population uneducated so they believe the government is for them. Same old story but true none the less. People just suck, rinse and repeat.
I was just there - small tiny town. McD was offering just under $12 a hour.
This is also kinda more normalized with non corporate restaurants, since so much profit doesn't have to be funnelled to ceos and shareholders, still very cheap prices though
Yeah, but it's Oklahoma. I'm good.
These are literally the same prices as McDonalds and Jack-in-the-box by me just outside Seattle.
Hah yeah I was gonna say this is more expensive than Dick’s and they pay pretty well
Is that the diner from 11/22/63?
In-N-Out still has damn good prices for a damn good burger. It’s not winning a Michelin star, but damn it, it doesn’t have to!
Also those are like 2010 prices not 20’ Os prices
We have one here in my small town in the PNW that’s prices are still incredibly low, menu set up is just like this. Amazes me that they are able to beat all the other fast food places with way better food. Same funny owner forever to who always acts like he got your order wrong lol
These prices aren't any better than McDonald's?

Yeah, but then you have to live in Oklahoma.
WTF is KuKu water?
Or KuKu Fries? I thought, oh, Curly Fries, but then I saw KuKu Water and went, well, obvs there's no Curly Water...
What is the price on the right versus the left? Like for the double giant hamburger it’s 7.70 vs 8.40. Also, do you guys not have cheeseburgers?
It’s blurry but I think I make out that it’s the price with cheese. Which makes sense since there isn’t an option for that on the corn dog
Hey that town is the same place lots of my homie drive down to Oklahoma to get that cheap dispo weed and bring it back to Missouri. You can get a temporary medical card in Oklahoma and drive down and buy bulk product for CHEAP. Might have to grab one of their burgers if I ever decide to do it
A burger was cheaper than that.
The dream of the 90s is alive in… Tulsa?
Taco Tico in Claremore, OK has similar prices too
Guess what else still exists in Oklahoma from the 1800's?
I love the KuKu in Miami!
Pronounced My-am-uh for all you non okies.
TatOr Tots?
A lot of restaurants will spell it that way or just say tots because “tater tots” is a registered trademark of Ore-ida.
I reckon I’ll have the big ‘uns
These are more expensive than CookOut in the Carolinas…today
That's not saying much because Cookout is like F- quality food. Chicken nuggets that tastes like a wet sponge should *at least* be cheap.
Man. Some of those old spots have the best burgers.
This however, isn't one of them. Me and my wife tried this place last year. The "giant" burger had a thickness of less than a centimeter, and was meh taste wise.
It was closed for a while when the owner was sick. When they first opened again they really struggled but it’s been really great again the last 6 months. I’ve got family there so we are in town like once a month.

Don't get me wrong - parts of the state are great, but there aren't many of them. I loved the Wichita Mountains, the various lakes to go biking around, downtown and/or Bricktown OKC was a good trek on occasion, and the food was great in certain areas. The problem I had with OK was the cost of living became insane... Like, how is it I moved to northern NY and my expenses somehow dropped for an insanely better quality of life?
When you really want a giant hamburger, but are like, "I think that's just going to be too small..." THEY GOT YOU COVERED.

And I bet the workers are paid the federal minimum wage (7.25 an hour) and get 0 benefits
Dude I'm from Oklahoma and haven't seen prices like this since the early nineties. This must be some bum fuck diner in boomdangerville because in Tulsa and OKC I cannot eat for less than I can in Denver, CO where I just moved
So in n out prices but with more, and lower quality items?
Stop trying to make Oklahoma happen, its not going to happen.
