You also didn't understand what the big deal is about Greenville. That makes you 0/2.

I like weird food apparently. Beats the heck out of that carb/sugar crap people buy at Burger King. And no, you can't have it your way.

Burger King is disgusting! I think their food would taste better if they spit in it (maybe they do!)

This coming from the guy who whined like a two-year-old because he wanted a Waffle House in Downtown Greenville.

I see somebody is having a bad day. I never said I wanted it. I said it should be allowed to open there due to zoning laws even though i'll probably never eat there.

Where else can you get 24" long spaghetti? That alone is worth the trip! They do have some funky, yummy beverages. Nothing that 7-11 carries...thank god!

Interesting article:

FORTUNE -- Apple's retail stores aren't the only place where lines form these days. It's 7:30 on a July morning, and already a crowd has gathered for the opening of Trader Joe's newest outpost, in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood. The waiting shoppers chat about their favorite Trader Joe's foods, and a woman in line launches into a monologue comparing the retailer's West Coast and East Coast locations. Another customer suggests that the chain will be good for Chelsea, even though the area is already brimming with places to buy groceries, including Whole Foods and several upscale food boutiques.

Greenville is a city with no tourist attractions and no beaches.....if they want to get excited about a new store at least let them have that.
