Remember when fast food restaurants let you get your own soda? Here’s your cup, go to town. Great, now I’m in control. I can determine the amount of ice. I can mix and match the sodas if I [...]
What does food have to do with everything else? I’ll explain in a moment, but first let get this out.
Ever drive by a restaurant over and over again and start to get a hankering for it?
