Why per-ounce
Why per-ounce is the only fair measure
Every chain here picks its own cup sizes, which makes headline prices useless for comparison. A $4.59 Dunkin Medium sounds cheaper than a $5.51 7 Brew Medium — until you notice the Dunkin cup is 14 oz and the 7 Brew cup is 24 oz. Divide by ounces and the ranking flips.
The same logic applies at the top of the ladder. 7 Brew's Large is 32 oz. Sonic's Route 44 is bigger at 44 oz, but Sonic is not selling espresso drinks, so it is competing for a different order entirely.
