Applebee's? blech). Chains offer a kind of consistent experience that I think has a kind of value. But most of the time, I would rather risk a terrible meal for the chance at something great (but is usually mediocre anyway) than settle for consistency. Sometimes in order to find something better, your opportunity cost has to be the security of the consistency of chains...but you can be justified if that price is too high for you.<br /><br />That said, I'll never be a snob about fast food vs casual dining. You either eat food for the taste, or you eat food for the nutrition. Many casual dining places aren't necessarily healthier than fast food, and there are healthier fast food options.asongehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10692945945399782212noreply@blogger.com
