Bay Area chefs are ditching their favorite burger buns over the maker’s extreme right-wing politics
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | June 6, 20222 | Soleil Ho

Often lauded as the optimal bun for smashburgers, the squishy, yellow potato roll has been a holy grail for burger geeks around the country.

The reigning champ among those buns has to be the one from Martin’s Famous Pastry Shoppe, a family-owned company based in Chambersburg, Penn. It catapulted to fame with the rise of Shake Shack, which uses its bread exclusively at its locations around the world. Locally, use of the Martin’s potato bun, at operations like Wesburger, Kowbird and Smish Smash, has signified chefs’ seriousness about their sandwiches.

How long can this chit go on before lead starts flying.

Until November 2024, right after the Trump Triumph is announced...

Heck, if JFK were resurrected, the left would consider him “extreme right.”

A good time to remember that Chick-Fil-A sold out.

They no longer donate to the Salvation Army or FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) due to their support of traditional marriage.

To the left, “extreme right” is anything that is not extreme left.

I just returned from a few days in the Bay Area, after a long absence.

Every morning at breakfast, the TV blared constantly the most crass leftist propaganda and most of the people present sat like drug-dazed automatons receiving a morning fix.

It was frightening.

The TV propaganda was all dire, pessimistic, terrifying. The TV "reporters" seemed to believe the depressing, pessimistic propaganda they were broadcasting. Whether by design--or more likely by ignorance--the relentless reports seemed designed to instill fear--even panic--in the viewers. It appeared to succeed at this.

The people I talked with have serious problems with anxiety. I can understand why. They constantly subject themselves to a barrage of frightening propaganda. Many seem to believe it. Many are on anti-anxiety medication, even children.

Only half-jokingly, I was thinking: I'd be on anti-anxiety medication myself if I stayed here long enough!

The day I left, a lovely, kind woman asked if I were anxious about my departing flight. I explained that I dreaded the long trip, but that was all. She asked if I would like a few Xanex to relieve my anxiety. "Oh no," I replied, "I'm not anxious--just not looking forward to it." Actually, I was horrified at the thought of her casually offering a highly addictive drug--or any drug--to remedy anxiety.

Everybody seemed to be on the brink of panic. Children were chronically afraid.

One of the worst things the evil Democrat Party and its minions have brought about is this fear and anxiety--but it obviously serves the evil purposes of those who control them.

Not long ago, the attitude all over America was "can-do"--"good old American know-how!" This is the spirit that destroyed the evil Nazi regime in Germany and won the Cold War--which cured polio and created the miracle of flight--that made the USA the greatest, most just, most prosperous, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

What a contrast between

the USA that had to send her sons to war across in both Asia and Europe, at the same time, but proceeded with courage, optimism, and faith in both God and the righteousness of the nation they were preserving and

a nation trembling before such imaginary threats as "global warming," "the corona virus," "monkey pox," and "the inherent racism of the American People," and succumbing to such evils as drug abuse, open borders, infanticide, reparations, defunding the police, excusing massive election fraud, political prosecution, and corruption at all levels of the Federal Government--Congress, the Presidency, and the judiciary--and America's once-pristine and revered agencies and institutions!

Today--June 6--is a good day to reflect on all this.

This is the anniversary of the day when young American men--men? most of them were less than 21 years old!--walked directly into machine gun fire on the beaches of Normandy in order to rid the world of the evil of Naziism and to prevent such evil from ever conquering America!

The day America's sons sacrificed their lives!

Their courage will never be surpassed!

These young men gave their lives to save the greatest, most just, most blessed nation the world has ever known: the United State of America!

What a contrast are the sniveling, cowering, stupid, anti-American brats "protesting" this sacred nation and her sacred heritage in June 2022! How stupid they are!

But:

"Let us be the antithesis by displaying courage and faith and confidence."

Let this be our resolution today: that those dead shall not have died in vain! that the greatest, most just, most blessed nation ever to grace this world shall not be destroyed--from without or from within--shall not succumb to the evil of those who would destroy her--but shall live on as a blessing for all mankind.

They’re also probably substituting lettuce on the burgers with kale. Unghhh.

I don’t donate to the Salvation Army anymore either - right after their attacks on White people

I do not know the quality of the hamburger buns from Martin’s Famous Pastry shop, but I do know that to me being part of Shake Shack is nothing to brag about - about the worst commercial hamburgers I’ve ever had.

Yes I live here and the psychosis is strong.

We have to be really tough minded to keep our spirits up and our sanity intact. It’s like we are taking crazy pills.

21st century is not so clear on the subject.

For instance, the proposed victims have been awakened by The Orange Monster, before their Evil Assault Rifle-14s have been seized by those who intend to kill them.

As soon as I see “right wing stance”-—I figure the article is BS and I will support whoever they’re bashing.
