Oh, I'm absolutely ready if it really comes down to that, you know? But if it doesn't, I guess I'll just keep hiding behind my screen on this forum, haha.

so basically you don't have a clue and you're just out here trying to get revenge on the owner of those spots (who, by the way, is someone nobody except the mayor thinks highly of 😉) just because you got fired 👍

nice try, but I never even worked there—it was actually one of my buddies, and they're still there pulling in the big bucks, so I really don't give a damn about any of this other than the fact that I refuse to pay $5.00 for straight-up garbage food

I know exactly what's going on, and honestly, if you can't see how eating daily stuff made with the cheapest oil you can find at a local Walmart, mixed with Nutella, fried in dirty equipment by unmonitored staff, using oil that’s been reused for up to 18 hours straight without a break, is wrecking your health... then you've got a serious problem... most people won't notice right away, but some have already felt the consequences

Rachel Brooks63 said:how so?

Alright, let's play out a scenario here—say someone goes on a two-month streak of eating nearly a pound of donuts fried in burnt oil every single day... what kind of real-world damage are we actually looking at? 🤷

Don't look to me for those answers, go ask a doctor. 😉

Besides, why on earth would anyone buy oil labeled as "chocolate"?

And you're getting it from workers who don't even have basic health permits

in a shop that doesn't even have running water for washing hands—they just wipe everything down with wet wipes...

Rachel Brooks63 said:So, how exactly are a few pieces of fried dough made in yesterday's oil seriously going to wreck our health? 😕Look, if you're eating deep-fried stuff cooked in old grease every single day, sure, maybe there's an issue, but we're talking about two servings of fritters over the span of two months—what kind of massive consequences are we actually looking at here?

(It's basically the same logic as worrying about mixing Nutella with oil, right?)

The thing is, certain regulars hit up that specific spot every single day, and if you're getting a heavy coating of oil from food fried in yesterday's batch on a daily basis, yeah, you could actually be doing some real damage to your health.

I'm not even talking about the random walk-ins, though I wouldn't personally recommend they eat there either.

I’m writing this because I really want to reach out to all of you and ask you to please stop buying those fried dough bites from the street vendors down in downtown Chicago or along the pier. Most of these workers don't even have basic health permits, they're working in totally unsanitary conditions, and honestly, that chocolate drizzle you think you're getting is basically just cheap oil mixed with a tiny bit of Nutella? They aren't even changing the oil in the deep fryers throughout the day; they just keep reusing old grease and mixing it with new stuff. The fact that they're hiring undocumented workers just to cut corners shows you exactly where their priorities lie—they don't care about quality, they just want to squeeze every cent out of people by exploiting cheap labor and ripping off customers.

Look, we all know fast food on the go isn't great for us anyway, but at this rate, you might actually be doing some serious damage to your health
