That clear jelly you used to get around the meat in a pork pie...

...was one reason why I never liked pork pies.

My mom always used to make jello "salads" (which were always some time of fruit).  Loved 'em!

I was grossed out by dessert jelly as a kid

A childhood without jelly and ice cream? I can't conceive such a thing.

Or a Double Quarter-Pounder combo meal.  Your choice.

 
60 isn't it? Burger (5) + fries (1), x drink (10), or do you have to do it another way round? I never know.

I like a proper pork pie, very occasionally. There's no jelly in them now.

I never thought that it would come to this.............
 
It's Friday night and I've spent actual time looking up why there used to be jelly in pork pies and why there isn't now.
 
 

Several of the pork pie forums that I frequent have had quite heated discussions about it.

Good catch on the multiplication sign!  I missed it.  But, your answer is also incorrect.
 
Shakes are 10 each (10 + 10 + 10 = 30)
Burgers are 5 each (shake 10 + 5 + 5 = 20)
But fries are 2, not 1 (burger 5 + 2 + 2 = 9)
So burger plus fries times shake is (5 + 2 x 10), which looks at first like it would be 70 but, in math, the multiplication takes priority (unless there are parentheses), so it's 5 + (2 x 10) or 25.
