You can only find it here in Venezuela.

And the crazy thing is everyone who has, it keeps saying it's the worst they've ever tasted.

So we flew all the way to Caracas to check it for ourselves.

And it turns out that behind the simple burger lies a billion dollar story that will blow your mind In Venezuela, the big mac costs between $5-7.

That's almost twice as much as the rest of the world.

But somehow it tastes horrible.

But why, why is the worst big Mac so expensive?

Well, it has everything to do with this C $7 in Venezuela is worth three million Venezuelan bolivars, which means that that piece of paper is worth practically nothing.

It's so bad that until recently people here would pay for their groceries with big bags full of cash.

It's all because when Venezuela started having money problems a few years ago, the government started printing more cash and giving it to the people to help them pay their bills.

But because the cash is just printed paper, not true economic growth.

The other governments and businesses of the world knew it wasn't worth much.

And so did Mcdonald's, that's why for a simple Big Mac here, you have to be a lot more than anywhere else.

Nicolas Maduro has announced a series of drastic measures.

The first introduced this week is to lock five zeros off the currency, The Bolivar.

So a whole load of new bank notes have been issued, the biggest of those bank notes is the 500 bolivar note that will be worth 50 million old Bolivar's that's still only around $8.

But this isn't just happening in Venezuela, in Lebanon Russia, Argentina, Turkey, anytime a country has cash issues, it shows on its Big Mac price.

Okay, so I'm honestly surprised by all of this when I was a kid, the Big Mac costs around 2 to $3.

And now here in the U.

E.

It costs around 5 50 to $6.

So it doubled in price.

And that just goes to show you like it's crazy to think about it.

Like going to a Big Mac or Mcdonald's, you can find out how much your money is actually worth.

This video is not about Big Macs, it's about the money in your pocket and how much it's really worth.
