(00:00):
The morning Breeze on demand on theBreeze another sign of changing times. I
read this morning the McDonald's is gettingis doing away with all of the self
served fountain drinks. So you know, when you go into a McDonald's,
they give you a cup, youknow, small, medium, large,
You go fill your own soda withwhatever you want. I like to mix

(00:20):
a diet you're open a cherry coke. Sure, are you a mixer?
I do I yeah, actually Ido the diet coke, and then I
do a just a shot of lemonadeDutch, just like lemonade. I never
little bit of lemonade. Take thatsound like the diety taste? Yea,
chemicals in it? Yeah, youknow those things. I was worried you
were going to say you were oneof those mixers that does like all of

(00:43):
them. Do you remember when youwere as a kid as a kid.
No, that's such a role.Go there and get the swamar called we
called it the swamp water. That'swhat are you drinking? Swamp water?
It's like a squirt of everything inthe line. You might as well just
drink what comes goes to the bottomof the great on the bottom and just
pour that in your cup at thatpoint, I suppose, so maybe disgusting.

(01:03):
Yes, they say that fewer customersare visiting the dining rooms and people
are opting for digital or takeout orders. Makes sense. Yeah, when was
the last time you ate it atfast food? I know we were talking
about this off the air, andI like, I can't remember the last
time I actually went in and dinedin at a Burger King or at a
Wendy's or McDonald's. You should haveseen Court and I behind the scenes.

(01:26):
We were like, when was it? Yeah, one of us can figure
it. Started thinking of other restaurants, and these restaurants may be considered fast
food, but they're little mom andpops. Yeah, don't really don't feel
like they can't chain fast food.Probably Taco Bell in nineteen eighty nine on
Monument Boulevard and conquered, which iswhen I was in school. Very specific.
Well, I just that's that wasour go too. I'm sure mind's

(01:47):
more recent. My daughters just stilllove to go to the little play areas.
You're a dad, Yeah, soit's different, but still like in
the pandemic changed a lot of things, and I'm sure a lot of that's
been the catalyst for many of them, because you know, they shut down
a lot of those self served placesbecause they didn't want people being there using
that cups and that too are spreadinggerms, and those machines are probably expensive

(02:07):
to exactly the upkeep on them.So here's the thing. Though, they're
going to start doing this, it'llbe done by twenty thirty two, so
you have nine years to adjust tothe fact that you might not can't get
that diet coke and lemonade real quick, You only have nine more years.
