Impossible Burger patty

Post by 93Regina »

The Impossible Burger patty was created entirely from plants making it vegan, yes, but it’s intent is for people who love meat, not vegans. It's a delicious option with sustainability benefits – using 95% less land, 74% less water and creates 87% less greenhouse gas emissions, while being 100% free of hormones, antibiotics, and artificial ingredients. While their standard preparation isn't vegetarian or vegan, it's easy to order it that way. We’d like to note, Umami Burger has never claimed that the Impossible Burger would be vegan, just the patty as created by Impossible Foods, is vegan.

McDonald’s Delivery Has Finally Landed in Los Angeles - Bringing those perfectly engineered French fries right to your door

Yesterday, UberEats brought its partnership with McDonald’s to Los Angeles, meaning it has never been easier to have a Big Mac delivered right to your door. While “McDelivery” has been available in parts of the world for quite some time now, stateside, the service has largely been limited to Manhattan, New York in the U.S. With the expanded relationship with Uber, McDonald’s is now attempting to reach millennials in LA, Phoenix, Chicago, and Columbus, Ohio.

And with its new breakfast all day menu, there are some amazing possibilities for late night munchies cravings and day-after hangover remedies delivered right to your doorstep.

McDonald's delivery rolling out in Chicago-- saw adverts while I was there last week. McDs sales has been declining for years they're getting desperate it seems.

On a humorous foodie side note, a day ago a friend visiting from the UK ate a couple cookies I picked up from the grocery. She was delightfully astonished, in her words, 'never heard of putting peanut in a cookie!' ..aka peanut butter cookies.
Oh my.
I'll see her again on Sunday. A batch of homemade PB kiss cookies so she can taste a good PB cookie is on my todo list. What she tasted was sort of icky ones from the grocery. She also inquired whether we have chunky peanut butter in the states.

Back to Mcd's. Hot food delivery in the past was accomplished through drivers employed directly by the restaurant you were ordering from. It would be interesting to see the details of the arrangement between Mcd's and Uber. I would imagine the delivery charge would have to be fairly steep: putting a Big Mac meal price wise in line with established hot food delivery establishments. In the city competition is stiff I just don't see that many people opting for Mcdonalds over higher quality pizza-italian/Chinese etc at the same end price including delivery charge. In smaller cities/towns it would probably be more competitive where delivery options are limited and/or quality of food tends to be more on par with Mcd's.

McDelivery would work in larger cities...in smaller communities, most folks ain't got the disposable income.

In smaller towns, this would not happen: A Riverside city employee earned $257,000 last year - and that’s just
overtime
