There are a lot of reasons why we are the unhealthiest nation in the world. Our dependence on cars, lack of sports programs in public schools, access to fast food on every corner, and of course, the only in America, buffet. Do we really need more all-you-can-eat choices?
Olive Garden has the never ending pasta plate, Red Lobster has endless shrimp, Hometown Buffet has all you can eat everything, even the Dodgers have there own gluttonous all-you-can-eat program now. And now, CiCi’s pizza is coming to LA. The mostly southern region food chain is making a push to find franchisers in California. Why is America so fascinated with all-you-can-eat joints? And where did the public school system go wrong when teaching kids about food servings and the food pyramid? I could really do without another all-you-can-eat restaurant chain in LA, but I fear it’s just a matter of time before we see Cici’s popping up in a suburb near you.
