		<description>Um, I&#039;m kind of late to the game, but I just wanted to point out to Brian that this isn&#039;t some site that claims to be objective or anything... This is Zach&#039;s food site where he expresses HIS opinions about food.  For first time readers, it&#039;s helpful if they stumble across a review, to know where he&#039;s coming from as a self-professed fat guy (even though Zach, you&#039;re REALLY not fat, a lil chubb to hug, but not FAT - ummm, was that inappropriate?  I meant it in a nice friendly way, not skeevy weirdo way), to understand why something that appeals to him might not appeal to other people.  Zach tries really hard to bring perspective into play for people who can&#039;t or don&#039;t want to just try every place he talks about before deciding if it&#039;s for them or not with his &quot;Plusses (what people who like this place might say)&quot; and &quot;Minuses (what people who don&#039;t like this place might say)&quot;.  That&#039;s above and beyond what a lot of sites (including my own) do, to encourage objectivity.  

Anyway, Zach, that guy Matt?  Thesaurus much?  I hate when people bust out the pompous words to make themselves seem smarter or loftier, but then sprinkle expletives within the very same commentary.  It&#039;s like... dude.  You sound like an a-hole, with or without the large vocabulary (that you&#039;re probably faking).  

PS I wrote a novel about the Atkins scam, I mean diet.  It&#039;s all about how the egg and meat commissions (fictional commissions in my world) put a &quot;hit&quot; out on the bread/carbs commissions and were very successful until... the bread/carb commissions put a hit out on Dr. Atkins.  Hahahahahahaha.</description>

		<description>Oh. and Matt should start a blog about health food joints for all the diabetes kids. From the comments there seems to be a bit of interest in it.</description>

		<description>To me, this blog is about good food. Period. With an emphasis on affordable lunchtime fair. 

The truth is that, more-often-than-not, health food joints suck and are only edible because you have to in order to fight fat or some health problem. They are often similar in their blandness, so just close your eyes and pick one. Go get some tasteless sludge to nourish your day and move on. Hard to review on a blog about tasty eats.</description>

		<description>(1) To be serious for a minute: Matt, you think it makes sense to demand compassion and empathy while at the same time trashing fat people?  Get the log out of your own eye, my brother.

(2) Seriously, you sound like a dry drunk.  Zach isn&#039;t the enemy here.  He isn&#039;t the czar of lunch menus.  I&#039;d be happy with some tasty healthy food in Midtown myself, but let&#039;s be realistic.  Food around there is driven by office workers looking for speed and cheapness, neither of which are really consistent with tasty healthy food.  You know what you need to do if you want to eat healthy in a zone like Midtown.  Pack your lunch.  (By the way, if this were a personal finance blog, everybody would be judging *you* for being a spendthrift and wasting your money eating out!  Take a deep breath.  Eat a pomegranate.  Relax.)</description>

		<description>DocChuck once put his head up my ass.  Sometimes, it is a good thing that I am made of flexible materials and cannot feel pain.  I wish the pay were better, though.</description>

My opinion that a lot of the people on here are assholes means I have my head up my ass.  Makes a lot of sense.</description>
