I never eat out. Hate it. Never understood people who do it all the time. Too lazy to cook I guess.
I used to order a pizza for delivery now and then but I have bad acid reflux and can no longer eat anything that produces acid. No more tomatoes, peppers, onions, garlic, citrus, etc.
Really sucks.

Your acid reflux is not from eating those foods.

It's from TDS induced stress caused by
obsessing about President Trump

I found if I cut out nearly all the sugar a piece of pizza wasn't really what was giving me the acid reflux

I used to burp up pesto all night , stopped putting pesto on pasta and put it on zucchini and no all night pesto burps.

I see some of you eating at the culvert? I would just as soon take the critter home, skin it and then cook it at my place.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

the culvers does have the best fish of any fast food place.

clean restrooms , soda fountains for all the refills you want and decent custard
doesn't hurt all the newer ones put an outlet at every booth some even with usb jacks at them all have free wifi
it is a good place for a pit stop because you can usually park the boat where you can see it from the dinning room
they keep the dinning room nice and cool in the summer
ice water
if you were out fishing all night it can be a very welcome pit stop before driving home.

last one I was at was last summer it is about 10 minutes from the pickup doors at O'hare I highly reccomend staying there plugged in , free wifi , sipping coffee and close to the clean restroom while you wait to pick up your arriving passenger until they are through customs with their luggage and walking to the doors , they can wait 5 more minutes for you with you on the phone while they tell you what post they are standing next to outside.
because sitting in cell phone parking for 3 hours while they wait for a gate , then for baggage then wait in customs line . on the ground does no mean come pick me up.
I had petitioned the wife when daughter texted they were on the ground we can wait here it is 10 minutes from the door at Ohare , no we should go to cell phone parking they are on the ground
and 3 hours later a use of the portajohn and walking the parking lot to keep from going nuts in the car having already been in it most of 5 hours with 3 more hours drive home.

Love Subway Meatball subs, but only with a coupon, and most of the stores around here refuse to take them. Now it's a $6 sub with a soda purchase, but I don't patronize them much anymore.

I love cooking, grilling and smoking food.

I also love eating out occasionally.

Different strokes for different folks.

Fast food is horrible for you and overpriced. I usually only do that stuff if its the only option, that's where the group is going or traveling and time is of the essence.

I quit eating fast food a few years ago.

I eat it once or twice a year when traveling and that's about it. When I eat it, I'm amazed at how salty and greasy it is.

It doesn't settle well for me either.

I feel like giving up fast food and soda was a good decision for me.

I don't eat fast food, but my wife wanted an Italian sub so i stopped at Jersey Mike's. Ordered full sub and the sub was only 6' at best. I told the lady I ordered a large sub and she said" This is a large." I said no thank you and walked out.

Just blows my mind that there are all those lines at McDonalds. Just goes to show that people don't give a crap about the quality of what they put in their bodies. It's garbage, it's not even real food most of it. They even load their french fries with sugar so people will eat them.

Culvers actually has the best real food in most cases, their burger is good quality, the fish is actually fish filets rather than entire fish ground up into a slime and pressed into shapes. Their pot roast is legit, like really good.

It's hard to find quality food and if you do find it, you pay through the nose for it. Took my wife out for valentines day to a nice restaurant. Two ribeye meals totalled $96 and we didn't have any drinks of desserts.

But... Have you been to the grocery store lately?

Might make it cheaper but it sure doesn’t improve the quality !
