The main problem is that since wages haven’t kept up the proportional value to the paycheck doesn’t follow inflation which is why it isn’t actually as simple as just looking at inflation.
Depends on the type of sandwich and how good it is. I’m thinking of a full sized sub.
Yellow Sub has fantastic sandwiches and full size was around $5 back in the 90’s and around $14 today. Back then the half was like 75% the cost of a full (twice the size) so I always got the full and had leftovers.
I expected to pay $5 for a good sandwich in 1995 and with inflation $11 sounds about right.
Double checked and yup: https://www.calculateme.com/inflation/5.00-dollars/from-1995/to-now

I paid 2€ for a sandwich up to 2020. How is $5 expected in 95…
Now it’s more like 4-5€ for a good one.
