[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I don't think the point is that if you make some effort to eat at Outback rather then bistro bis you're suddenly in touch...it's more like...try travelling somewhere where outback is your only option for going out for dinner. That's why I've been to those places. I have family and friends who talk about NASCAR, so even though I've never seen a race, I know who Jimmie Johnson is. You don't have to be interested in the STUFF, per se, to be interested in people and places where the experience is different from the bubble here. "

I say this gently, but I don't have enough vacation time to go to those places. I like to vacation in places with historical significance. I'm not interested in spending any of my 3 weeks off in rural America.[/quote]

This is a very interesting point, I hate chain restaurants-just because the food really doesn't agree with me and it tastes pretty bad-but I worked in Frederick about 10 years ago-before Volt opened up. 
It was awful! There was *nowhere* to get a remotely healthy lunch and I mean *nowhere*. But they did have Roy Rogers which I ended up eating quite a bit:)
So if people don't have access to healthy food, like in bad areas where grocery stores sell half-rotten fruits and veggies, how are they supposed to eat healthy? 
Did you know WIC (google it) didn't even cover fruits and veggies until just a few years ago? 
Off stepping off my soap box now...[/quote]
