iconic flame grilled whopper and get a second one for free.

Second Rewards members can score a classic cinnamon run roll

(01:27):
to four at Cinnabon, So make sure you stop buying
and get one. I also sudden, you know like this,
this is kind of interesting. A restauranteur is saying, what
are the things at a restaurant that you should not order?
When you go first on the list, they say, don't
order this special. Really? Yeah, they say the special is
tied to a clear Unless it's tied to a clear

(01:49):
seasonal ingredient. It sounds harmless, but it means it's stuff
they need to get rid of. The sauce will mask
the age, the garnish will distract you, and by the
time you finished, you basically pay top dollar for yesterday's
leftovers special. But they always sound so good. I know
they do. Then there's shellfish, it says in places that
are nowhere near the coast. Unless you know they've got

(02:12):
daily deliveries and spotless storage, you're gambling on your gut
ordering real shellfish. Yeah, there's not anywhere near the coast. Huh,
I'm so glad. I'm allergic to this shelfy. Yeah, it
said ice in drinks at certain bars if the ice
machine is not properly cleaned, and in busy restaurants it awfully,
it often isn't. You're basically sipping on a chilled petri

(02:35):
dish and the chicken dishes in a buffet or all
you can eat situation. They are a breeding ground for
bacteria if TIMPs are not spot on, and trust me,
at high volume places, they're not checking every tray like
they should. I don't know. The only thing.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
The only thing that makes me a little skittish at
restaurants are the slices of lemon are lined and you're
in your drink. Absolutely, because I see that they just
use their bare head. They go to the bathroom, they
touched the winkie, they shake it, they come out of
the bathroom and they put it on your limon.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
Are they drop it on the floor and it rolls across? Yep,
there's it. Are you saying they're like doodoo lemons? There's
duty limbs?
