    How many years of your life are you losing on the radioactive ingredients. Bring a geieger counter. Most of this stuff comes from area 52.

    Brah - this is the least important information I have ever read. It’s so amazingly useless that I suspect I will die still remembering it.

    He’s not wrong on the publicly traded companies. Walmart has been an innovator and leader in big data crunching since it became a thing.

    You cut to the meat of it; privately owned companies that put people first seem to be winning in a lot of sectors.

    Macaroni salad is underrated IMO....I love that stuff but so many people screw it up, my secret is a hint of dill, Duke`s mayo and Dijon mustard

    Will try this if they make a spicy version...low sodium spicy V-8 is undrinkable.

    Spicy v-8 is great, also makes a great bloody mary base

    Playing in a wedding band, I can't even tell you how many times we've been served this exact meal.

    Love a good Bun Thit Nuong Cha Gio.

    I feel like this is kind of a gray area cause while the noodles, vegetables, and fish sauce are served cold/room temp. The meat and egg roll usually arent. And they definitely taste better not cold.

    Those noodles are room temperature at best and like @RedIsen said, there are hot ingredients in the combination. Its not 'lets stick it in the fridge to get cold and hard as hell'.

    It's seriously going to ruin the country. Already has. Glorified house flipping. Affects people's jobs, quality of service, people's health, life/death consequences in some cases (hospitals).

    I’m really worried about it in professional services. We’re already seeing it in accounting…great CPAs give advice every day to benefit their clients even if it means less fees for his/her firm. But PE groups don’t work that way. Just a weird tension there which concerns me.

    The accounting firm I use sold to P/E - it's been TERRIBLE since. They even outsource the preliminary work overseas. You can tell how miserable the people still working there are. Looking to change asap.

    The P/E I deal with is shredding through the home service industry. And because they all plan to flip and flip and flip every few years, they don't care about the warranties they write. GOOD LUCK
