Panera tried this at a few locations, with predicable results. Needless to say, they don’t do this anymore.

I am conservative thus strongly believe in trading value for value. However, I totally would have eaten there specifically to stiff them thus teaching them a valuable lesson

..and the fact that none of the business owners is homeless or starving to death is the reason why people will always hold out hope for socialism.

Vegan food? I wouldn't even waste my time.

Who wants to eat a vegan anyway. I hear they taste bland and are stringy.

If your business model is getting filthy hippies to contribute anything beneficial except fertilizer when they die it is fundamentally flawed.

The accounting firm say employees were owed at least $110,000 when Lentil as Anything crashed, with a further $258,491 in superannuation

All leave with the feeling that they are part of an inclusive community

Ya, the community of

GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS of thee

No one you see
Steals more completely

And they call them GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS
GRIFTERS of thee

Ever so low, as low as can go
Bait and switch, adults or kids they’ll bewitch

And we know that GRIFTERS
Steal all not nailed down
Stealing from me
Stealing from thee.

They didn't understand their market. The largest number of diners would pay good money to avoid having to eat lentils for dinner alongside vagrants. Next largest group are the vagrants who would eat lentils, but would not pay for them. Smallest by far is the group who would pay good money to actually eat lentils for dinner alongside vagrants.

If they ran the business as a real restaurant with a pot of lentils available for vagrants out back with the promise that they stay in the alleyway, they'd still be in business.

A preference for bigoted ideology over life drives leftist behavior.

Stupid is as stupid does, Mrs. Blue.

Doesn’t Jon Bon-Jovi operate a restaurant with similar payments for food?
