Mostly about insurance, but there are references to lots of other items including new tip rules, joint employer changes, food costs, etc. It is a long one. I thought the $30 burger comment at the end was so CFMB.

True fast food maybe just shouldn't exist. It's not cheaper or better or healthier.

Not fast food, but related to ridiculous corporate food inflation from transportation and retail labor costs:

- North Carolina State Farmers Market has freshly picked strawberries grown 30-70 miles away for $7 for 1.5 pound baskets, multiple farms selling them.
- Major chain grocery store (Publix) has bulk picked strawberries from California (Driscoll) for $7 for one pound.

Since when is the farmers market cheaper than the grocery store?

If you are going to spend $7 on steak sauce, at least get a bottle of Peter Lugar sauce.

I bet Bob would turn over his whole paycheck for Lugar’s sauce.

How many hours did you spend researching how to do this?

The bigger problem is the quality of the steak you’re buying for it to need A1.

Ketchup is cheap at Costco. Just use that on your steak.

This is how I imagine Reinsdorf fills the White Sox roster.

2 former KC Pitchers (buy 1 get one for $1 coming off Tommy John Surgery) medium prospect ($1 with app coupon from family night at Kane County Stadium) and medium position player that is just over the expiration date. $6.86.

This board is great. The Wolfpack turns so quickly and no-one is immune...not even a well respected male nurse.
