You are right there. I know people who LOVE food from places like Applebees
and Olive Garden.

I used to like dining out when salad bars were common. I don't even like the
few salad bars that I find now. The stuff they put out now is for the most
part pre-cut or prepared, like pasta salad. Soup is often Campbell's. Not
much is made from scratch. I don't to pay for that stuff and suffer through
it.

I don't know about 20 years ago. Maybe. But even then a lot of that was
Sysco. But it did seem that there were a few more restaurants that cooked
from scratch. Now in this area, chains abound. Not my thing. I used to like
Shari's. A local chain. Not any more. Now they have Tater Tots on the menu.
And they even screw those up!
