| - Lets play a game: What are restaurants associated with?
McDonald's......... the Big Mac
Burger King......... the WHOPPER
Denny's....... (drunk) breakfast anytime
Olive Garden...... unlimited bread sticks, salad and soup
And finally, Chili's...... The awesome blossom!!!
Guess which one of those restaurants/fast-food joints have lowered themselves from passing grades to a mere one star standard? That's right Chili's removing the Awesome Blossom from their menu, not cool man. In fact, that is uncouth, un-american, un-awesome. We were giving eyeteeth for those perfectly sliced, breaded, deep-fried, stank-breathed onion bites with the horseradish sauce all week.
Now we know what you are thinking: "C'mon guys you cannot base an entire chain of restaurants solely on one appetizer, now can you".
Yes, we can; and we did. How are you going to discontinue the commodity that made you? You don't see Dave waking up one day saying, "Ya know, think we are going to murder the Frosty; yup, put a big fork in it: DEAD". It's the establishment doing away with the establishment. I know, back-ass-ward; and it hurts a little.
So what are you know Chili's: an over-salted, priorly frozen, submerged in fat, microwaved-to-perfection (without the awesome blossom) chain lost in the sea of other over-priced with low quality American chains; that has lost her only "it-factor". Kudos on that.
