I cook most of my own food ...grow it too. I just don't like the restaurants around here in east TN. Mostly fast food and very fattening foods. The most popular restaurant in town is actually called Fatz, it's a chain too. Most things are fried. I have to travel about an hour to get to a decent restaurant, to even just get good bar-b-que.

So, this chain restaurants everywhere (Cracker Barrel literally made me sick, Waffle House always has human hair in the food, McDonald's, Taco Bell and Arby's taste like fake meat.) Is an actual strategy. It's what Trump humpers love. No wonder I can't find a good place to eat. It makes sense now.

But when I go to LA to visit my daughter, the food is just so great. Even little restaurants in strip malls have wonderful food. Now, I know why.
