...so I save money there. I've been a vegetarian for years so meat isn't an issue. I've also given up most processed food and make stuff from scratch. Fewer chemicals in them. As for Chipotle I don't go there due to overabundance of cilantro which I can't stand. As for Darden restaurants we gave them up when the CEO deliberately kept workers below 32 hours so they didn't qualify for health insurance.
