And justifiably so. Restaurant wars.

On edit: Kind of surprised Perdue didn’t go to Chuck-fil-A, which is also HQ’d in GA.

people make nasty anti vegan statements. I can't imagine it would help him in Georgia. The deplorables have an image of us and they will use this against us.

It sucks. But, it's true.

as weak. He already does look as an outsider being a Jew who wasn't born in Georgia. Believe me, they will use him going to a vegan restaurant against him.

They don't want to focus on real issues. This is the stuff that motivates them.

Unfortunately, waffle houses are more relatable.

and I eat meat - even beef hamburgers! My biggest issue with the Impossible Burger and others like it is that it's driving good house-made veggie burgers off the menu. My rule of thumb before Covid restrictions was if a veggie burger was made in house it was worth ordering; if it wasn't, stick to the beef versions.

(BTW, I think bacon goes fine with bean burgers!)

The Waffle House is the great equalizer. From drunk college students, to people just eating breakfast and completely random folks drinking coffee... it was dinner and a show for everyone.
