...I haven't been in a Wimpy for years - the UK resturants were styled on the Brit idea of what an American diner was like, now they are just another McD's clone (shame because they are older than McDs and Burger King).

American diners beat all of these choices. I don't know how many of them are left, but there's plenty of them still in NJ.

I agree that burger definitely looks unhealthy enough to be available on every US street corner.

I'll get a cup of tea at Panera Bread occaisonally because their Earl Grey is passable, but I really do not like fast food.

It's the only place I've found. I usually just carry a tea tin in my car with my infuser and request hot water when I'm out. However, they use Republic of Tea teas. They're far from great, but it suffices in a pinch. |

For those who are from England, I love EAT. Very simple food but so good.

That's what happens when you set tea up on a pedestal. I like good things as much as any somewhat middle-class white dude, but you Brits have an intense cult of tea there. I'm not surprised you're not satisfied with anything but the best brewed tea. Give me a bag of Twinings and hot water and I'll spare the complaining, myself. Kinda the same with everyone on the Internet bitching about Starbucks and burnt coffee. I have a French press, a drip coffee system, and all that, and yet I still like Starbucks and other coffee outlets. But nope, everybody's got to have an ax to grind about some scapegoat or other.

I went through high school in a small Kansas town (Derby) and we mostly ate at Sonic, Taco Bell or Pizza Hut (back when it took a half-hour to cook one of their pizzas). Went back there recently and all three of the original stores are gone. Today I prefer Red Robin. |
