    The Fast Food Thread

    Meat is always USDA. My company does cheese ravioli's and vegetables and fall under FDA. On the 3-5 days out of the year we do a meat ravioli, we have to specifically call the USDA so they can send an inspector on those days. It's why the system is so fucked up, FDA should just do drugs and move...

    Plants that work on that level of volume have at least one USDA inspector there, all day, every day. They even have to give the motherfucker his own personal office and parking spot (not kidding, it's written in the CFR). He does Pre-Operation inspection and can hold a room to be recleaned. They...

    Poultry processing has always been a messy process. I knew a guy who drove a roach coach who couldn't eat chicken any more because the workers came out pretty nasty. Even the USDA inspectors got pretty messy and they don't have to do anything outside of being an authoritative asshole.

    Wawa basically replaced 99% of the 7/11's in NJ/PA, you can't go 1 mile without driving by one, then they added gas stations to them all. Their coffee sucks but fuck paying 2.50+ for a medium at dunkin', I'll opt for the savings in a caffeine emergency. They leap frogged over to Orlando...

    They're electric so they'll be relatively quiet compared to any of their combustion powered counterparts. The article even mentions they're extremely quiet.

    Peels are easy with a little practice, don't be afraid to put a generous amount of flour down under the pie, blow under the pie and slide it back and forth on the peel as you put the peel in the oven, then pull the peel out with back and forth motion where you push in slowly and pull back fast...

    I don't think anyone here has claimed the s&p is a double digit guarantee, but historically it's been 10% for the last century before inflation, so figure about 7%. That's a pretty good return for what amounts to about 5 minutes of time clicking a few links on a website once a year. Obviously if...

    Is that the America's Test Kitchen recipe? It's awesome but I'm conflicted as it adds a lot of work to making pies, plus my unsophisticated family probably couldn't tell the difference anyway. Let me know if you want a great sweet potato pie and pecan pie recipe if you don't have their book.

    I'd be worried about 2019's gains if it existed in a bubble, but remember that 2018 was very flat over all and then all of a sudden the crazy gains don't seem so crazy.

    With food manufacturing we're serviced weekly regardless of if/when or how much activity there is. It's pretty much a requirement of our third party audits. It's a pretty sweet deal when you think about it. To give you an example, every friday our tech shows up, inspects all the stations...

    Not sure what you consider pocket change, but IRA's have a yearly contribution limit of 5,500 a year, so once you put that much in it for the year you're done. If you have more money you want to invest at that point, you need to put it in a regular account, the only difference being is this...
