Not that it's not solid beer ... but for that price, you can get better.

Are you on dope? 6 packs are around $8-$9 and they make good of beers as most breweries.

Having Chipotle today. Still hard for me to imagine people think it's overrated.

Chipotle is good. Qdoba is good. If you don't like it, don't eat it. Seems simple to me.

O-Trap, were you talking about on tap prices or 6/12 pack prices when you were talking about Great Lakes?

Because if we're talking about on tap I might agree just because many bars price any "premium/micro/craft" beers the same price so it's easier to get something besides Great Lakes that is pretty damned good.

6/12 pack I think I have to disagree. I haven't seen anything of the same quality for the price. Please tell me what is better in 6/12 packs for the same price though as I'd really love to try it.

I used to work there and hated it, but you have to understand, it's one of those buisnesses that people have no idea how big it actually is. The company that owns Pizza Hut also owns KFC, Taco Bell, A&W and one other one that I can't think of off the top of my head. Those other branches support the whole company even if one is struggling...which pizza hut was up until about 3 years ago when they decided to cut their prices (such as any large up to 3 toppings for 10 bucks). It's actually worked out better than they thought it would, and they sell a SHITLOAD of pizzas every day. My store was one of the slowest stores in our region in terms of customers per day, and we still would end up making 3-4K most days, and more on weekends. When you consider the fact that it only takes about 700 bucks a day to keep the place open, you're banking well over 2k on slow days from each store. And there are a lot of pizza hut's out there.

Sorry for that lol, but it's one of those buisnesses that will never be killed because of lack of money. The parent company/sibling restaurants keep it running. The only way PH will go anywhere is if they're not making very much money off of them and they decide they could cut them out and replace that branch of their company with something more viable. But as of right now, they're still the #1 source of income for APC.

Yum! Brand Foods. They also own Wingstreet.

My company conducts paid taste tests down in Louisville for them.

I dont' like chipotle much but living in San Diego I wouldn't eat that shit when I can go to a mom and pop place and get a burrito that's a 1000 times better and HUGE for the same price or cheaper.

In n Out is my #1 though. I haven't had it in 2 months so I think it's going to be dinner for me tonight :)

1000 times better? Cheaper? Another thing that is hard to believe. If you mean you went to a Mexican restaurant I cant believe it was cheaper. Most burritos I have ever seen at a Mexican restaurant are over 7 or 8 bones.

I seem to always just get an ass ton of rice with one or two chunks of meat.

im a couple days late, but i'll guess you go to the chipotle on howe. the one at highland square is a little more generous and just seems like it tastes better

In San Diego? They have taco shops all over the place and most burritos are $5 to $6. And they are enough for at least 2 meals.
