Why the hate for White Castles? Its drunk/high food. You know what you're getting when you get there.It's not the best place ever, but it's not the worst.
Get the double cheeseburgers+fries+chicken rings.
e: i just saw your thread, the Whitey's in Chicago do not look that bad. You had a bad restaurant. Vegas' Whitey's is shit.
Wat? There is more Dunkin Donuts per capita were I live than anywhere in the world. Average coffee and teenagers that screw up your order left and right is their specialty. I can't speak on White Castle. Only had it once but I bet I like KFC chicken little sandwiches more than those burgers. There is basically no good BBQ where I'm at
Lies, slander and thuggishness!

I think Dunkin Donuts are basically grocery store tier in terms of flavor and quality.
I prefer Shipley's or Krispy Kreme's fresh hot glazed donuts.

In the past year two Dunkin Donuts have opened in Houston but they are close to downtown and I live in the burbs. We have Shipleys donuts here and the donuts and kolaches are good but the coffee is swill
You would think with all the northern transplants here someone would open a White Castle / Dunkin Donuts combo here and take in the money
They don't have DDs in Cali?I miss Dunkin Donuts so bad. Chocolate glazed......
Weird I just assumed they were everywhere. Pretty sure they are all over Asia and Europe.

Wegmans was such a let down to me. People built it up so hard when they built one in Maryland. I remember someone saying "You have to visit Wegmans when you come home. It's not a grocery store, it's an event."
It's a fucking grocery store.
Nope, at least nowhere in NorCal.

They just opened a DD in Downey thats relatively close but let me introduce you to Sidecar Doughnuts.

DD's Donut quality has gone down greatly the past few years, mostly due to the fact that most of the donuts now are shipped in rather then made in the store.

Maybe Publix is the best of its tier for grocery stores or something, but it's so far below Wegman's tier that it's irrelevant.

Publix is not shit.
Anyone who has said that needs a more interesting life lol, there is no way my life will be so boring that no matter how good a store is that id say that
publix is a top tier grocery store
Weird you don't have Dunkin over there. They are fucking everywhere on the east coast. You can't go 5 minutes without seeing one.
And Wegmans is pretty awesome dude. All the food stations they have plus their selection of general groceries shits on anything else I have seen.
If you are in a nice neighborhood (i.e. not at a Publix) than you are going to see a lot of hot woman in yoga pants in pretty much any grocery store.
Whole Foods attracts rich people like garbage on the road attracts Floridians so it is no surprise it is packed with trophy wives and entitled daughters of evil rich men.

Whole Foods feels like a beautifulpeople.com meet up or something.
I went to one near the Montrose area in Houston and it was more overwhelming than a college campus.

First of all top tier grocery store is limited to like local chains only. Like DiBruno Bros.
Then there is the Wegman's tier, which basically no other grocery store is on.
Then there is the irrelevant tier of all other grocers which Publix is a member of.

Bionic is a fool
Fashion Island in Newport Beach is all trophy wives having their wine lunch dates with all the other trophy wive friends in yoga attire pretending like they just got done working out. I'm pretty sure the one wife missing from the group is getting banged by one of the husbands that is alledgedly on a business trip.
I dont know how far Honey Dew chain goes but it is superior to Dunkin. On top of that I can get to think about very bad things since there are some talented workers that all rock yoga pants at the one near me. A willow tree chicken salad sandwich and a coffee for under 5 bucks. Yes please.
why the fuck are you being pretentious when we're talking about grocery stores, jesus christ
I feel this is disrespectful.

Dude groceries are serious business.
He is rating the quality of various grocery chains.
Nothing pretentious about the truth brah!
The first time I went to Whole Foods was in the mid to late 90s. I was doing an internship in DC for the summer and lived in NW DC (super fucking rich area, where all the embassies are basically) with a friend (he was a rich fucker and the apartment was awesome). This is before GPS and Google Maps so I was just driving down Massachusetts Avenue and stopped at the first grocery store I saw. It was a Whole Foods and I was not ready for that experience. I went inside and I did not recognize a single thing they were selling. All I wanted was to be able to make some sandwiches and eat some Count Chocula for breakfast. They had no products that were recognizable to me and I didn't understand why their produce was more than double the price of what I got at my usual grocery store. My friend had to explain to me the concept of Whole Foods. I thought it was insane and he pointed me to the local Giant or Acme or whatever where I bought my groceries for the rest of the summer.

He's too busy in-taking Moe and chicken grease to do so at the moment.
Because he is honest.
The only positives I ever remember him telling us about his home state is that the cost of living is cheap and that his internet is fast as fuck. He never brags about dental hygiene or literacy over there because he is not some dirty liar (i.e. Pats fan).
ye Lafayette the greatest selection and getting all the big names!

I heard he had shingles the entire time.
Two teaming Pats degenerate
God you disgust me, I don't know whats worse, a Pats/Chargers fan or a Bungles/Pats fan.

The prices are still bullshit and the products can still be weird.
It just feels trendy to me. Like "designer food" or something.
It'll continue to be trendy as long as people pretend to be gluten free with no GMOs.

Yeah, some things about Whole Foods are just stupid. I will admit that their seafood and meat sections are awesome, but in some areas they are just dumb. They carry a huge amount of homeopathic shit. They are so up their own asses with the organic shit at times that they often carry poorer versions of a lot of basic items too. Their pre-packaged breads are absolute shit, for example, far worse than almost any I've ever had. I think part of the problem is that the Whole Foods by me is tiny though. Maybe when they move into their new digs in two years, which is going to be like five times the size of their current store, things will change. Either way whenever I go there to pick up odds and ends I end up spending $80.

They built a DD in SF when I lived there but no one would go. In SF they are super protective of local bussiness, most chans fail when they move there. They opened a huge Fridays down by the waterfront and it didnt last long at all.
