Off the Chain

So Kimberly and I have committed to not eating at chain restaraunts. Technically, it's Kimberly, but since I want to be a supportive husband and I think it's a good idea, I am doing it too. It's really about fast food restaraunts since they are so ridiculously unhealthy for you (with the exception of a few items), but for me it's also about supporting local businesses. The people who own Chili's have never been to Durham, they don't really care about Durham, so why should I help them? I should help the person who decided to work and live in Durham by opening a restaurant of their own here. That way the money I spend at their restaraunt typically goes right back into the Durham economy.
The one place I will miss the most...Chick-fil-A.
