Yeah, that's true too. You don't have to worry about the prep, busting your butt in the kitchen, clean-up, the dishes, etc. Sometimes it's nice to just go out and have a meal and a drink(or twelve!)and not have to worry about all that.
 
If anyone on here hasn't seen Fast Food Nation yet, then you should. It's a film by Richard Linklater. He's also recently done A Scanner Darkly, which is based on a great novel by Philip K. Dick. Philip K. Dick is probably one of my favorite authors! Richard Linklater has also done Waking Life and Dazed and Confused.

Mmmm, after seeing Fast Food Nation, you might really think twice about getting that Wendy's burger to got a craving for! lol Even going to a large chain restaurant like Chili's or Friday's. Soooooooo much iodized salt! Which is another huge problem with the mainstream food supply in this country. Also be careful of the evil and devious corporate takeover of the Organic Foods market.

Fresh Samantha/Odwalla: Fresh Samantha is a popular organic juice brand regionally produced in Maine. Odwalla is a juice company founded in Santa Cruz, CA, in 1984. Fresh Samantha and Odwalla merged in May, 2000. Little do health conscious consumers suspect that Odwalla Juice is owned by CocaCola, as part of their Minute Maid unit.

Boca Burgers is owned by Kraft Foods, which is owned by Philip Morris.

Stoned Wheat Thins are made with GMOs (genetically modified organisms) and is owned by Nabisco, which was acquired by Philip Morris in December, 2000.

Arrowhead Water and Poland Spring Water are owned by Nestle (which is being boycotted because its "breast milk substitute" causes the deaths of millions of babies).

Soy Silk is owned by White Wave, which is owned by Dean Foods, whose main shareholders are Microsoft, General Electric, Philip Morris, Citigroup, Pfizer, Exxon/Mobil, Coca Cola, WalMart, PepsiCo, and Home Depot.

So even when you think you aren't supporting some of these corporate giants, in actuality you still are! Talk about capitalism run amok! -Lars-
 
my kids LOVE bbq'd ribs! lol the bigger questions is why people go to Chili's?
i like the ribs at Outback Steakhouse (not sure if it becuase my wife is manager and she bring me home some 3 nights aweek)
 
I've been to chilis once. About 2 years ago when I was last in Texas.

I had the ribs and TBH I didn't think they were that bad. My it's my amateurish taste buds. You guys seem to love your ribs stateside :)
