Hello, Dumpling 👋 savoring some tasty lobster-shrimp dumplings at the year-old Dumplings Mi Amor in Miami
RBI adds $300M to Burger King remodeling program. The investment is on top of the 2022 $400M Reclaim the Flame program ow.ly/Gtmy105rl0G
McDonald’s has lost some of its value edge. McDonald’s ‘relative superiority on affordability’ has declined and the restaurant company plans to shift to a national value platform this year. ow.ly/6E1e105rlt6
Stop the presses: Starbucks same-store sales fell 4% while traffic was down 6%. Is this a discerning consumer tired of spending so much on specialty beverages? More competition from the likes of Dutch Bros, 7 Brew, Scooters, etc.? Both? Neither? #CoffeeDrama
Not optimal timing …

I just put a deposit on a 2024 hybrid. It doesn’t come for two months and let me tell you, I haven’t bought a car in 12 years and I went in there thinking I was a big deal and I knew so much (I studied), but what a mind F once you leave. A high demand car can’t really be haggled?
WOW! I didn’t have “get misty eyed at the end of an earnings call” on my Tuesday morning bingo card, but here we are. I’m a PROUD Chilihead. Today and everyday. We #chilislove you Joe!! Once a Chilihead always a Chilihead!
WTF is that?? 🤣😂
It was an honor to give President Trump my latest artwork of our beautiful first lady Melania, and I hope it brings him as much joy on his bedroom walls as it did ours!
Look who I just caught tossing cat chow around and drooling a bit:
@BGbunster @RonRuggless Pricing is getting insane - I’m not saying it’s unwarranted. But when it costs $10 to get a matcha latte with non milk substitute and tip $2-3, your consumption is gonna drop.

"Relative superiority on affordability" is certainly one way of putting your value leadership position.

Opinion: brunch is breakfast and lunch and so this signage is repetitive 🤷🏼♀️
Could this be future or QSR as the first floor tenant in small mixed use buildings? It’s supposedly real with a permit. If it gets built, separate matter.
First time I've seen a permit like this... Single tenant fast food restaurant with a drive thru Apartments on top In a town of 10k people Anyone seen something like this before?
