    Thanks, I guess. Yours looks quite a lot like a gay cowboy, but I'm guessing that was accidental. Thanks, Taco Bell.

    Yes, I have been in those restaurants. I'll never go to one again. If I walk into a place, and there are peanut shells on the floor, I'm walking out again. No matter how thoroughly you clean up, sweep up, hoover, or whatever, you're spending a large part of every day with food waste on the...

    I will never again eat in any restaurant that encourages people to throw peanut shells on the floor. The fuck is that? Here, throw food trash on the floor. What a good idea? Bloody disgusting, and way to attract critters.

    Had Chipotle tonight, big fat steak burrito with guacamole and hot salsa. it was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. Too big, though. Hard as fuck to eat, and ended up finishing it with a knife and fork because it wouldn't stay together.

    There's a local food co-op here, they do some of the same things that Blue Apron site does. They also just offer shares so that you can come and pick up local produce, milk, and so forth.
