Do a test.
Walk into McD’s at lunch. With all the ESL’s working the counter, homeless from the hood and all the SF General Hospital food voucher recipients and hang for a while.
Then go across the street to Boston Market and hang for a while.
Report here where you would rather eat.
Its not about the food, its about the “ambiance”

Maybe he told the kid that so the kid wouldn’t be tempted to eat at McDonald’s? Dunno, what a weird thing to say.

This is L. A. (Lower Allston), not Boston.

It would have been great if the kid turned around and bitten the shit out of you! That would have been a lot more fun to read about.

In reality, Boston Market eaters are Mc Donald eaters in some kind of denial…

As much as I’d almost certainly punch anyone who used the phrae “gives me pause” in the fucking face, you won me over with this overheard conversation. I’ll have to hang out in that intersection as frequently as possible.

Exactly–Whole Foods has the same sort of safe, exclusionary marketing, where you can think you have acheived a certain level of status just for shopping there.

I have, yeah. Not sure when the last time was, though? Shortly after they changed their name from “Boston Chicken”, I think.
