The whole cook your own food restaurant thing is a scam. I think even dimwitted liberals will figure that out...maybe not!
I went to a Greek restaurant once in Toledo, Ohio. You entered from the alley through the back door directly into the kitchen and served yourself from the pots and pans where the food was cooking in. Very “quaint”.
The good old days:
* Gas stations had attendants who would swarm your car to fill your tank, check your oil, put air in your tires, etc. they did all the work.
* The clerks at the supermarket emptied your cart, punched in the prices, and took your payment. No “paper or plastic” questions. No 25 cent charge for each bag if you forgot to being your own “green, reusable” bag.
* Streets didn’t have “Adopted by” virtue-signaling signs. Your modest taxes actually kept the streets and roads clean without extracting more from businesses and organizations.
* A human always answered your phone call. You didn’t get a useless robot that knows less than nothing and doesn’t understand you. Sandeep in India didn’t answer the phone and go by the lying nom-de-service of “Fred Jones.”
I will never understand why this is the “service era” when overall service is really crappy.
Get up and get it yourself! (gratuity surcharge of 25% will be included in the bill)
Sorta like the Tiny Home movement. Can't afford a house in town? Live in a sardine can on wheels! It's sooooo cool and you're helping to combat climate change! You're a free spirit! Be the envy of your friends!...

Another reason in a long list of why I don’t liking eating out. I’ll continue to cook from scratch at home and do my own grocery shopping.
