It’s in incredible condition for something 20+ years old, I throw that type of stuff in the trash immediately

It happens.

I recently found 20 year old mint condition menus from two local takeout places I frequent. All because I cleaned every newer one out of the house and went hunting for them.

Big price differences?

It was a big difference from even before inflation, with the Chinese menu. Most of the prices were around half of what they are now. The chicken place was already overpriced back then, so they're up only about 40%
