A lot of places created ghost kitchens in door dash and Uber. An example is the dennys near me is also “the burger den” that sells burgers exclusively, and “the meltdown” which serves melts exclusively. Both come right out of the dennys kitchen.

Twisted Tenders is Logans roadhouse… Also is a disappointment much like myself.

An upscale restaurant near me started selling sandwiches to the lunch crowd (not on their menu). They were really good.

I bought one of these pizzas. I wanted to try some place I hadn't before. It might as well have been "pizza" from a poorly funded school lunch. It was bad enough that I got curious about "CEC Entertainment" that was on the fine print of the box. Motherfuckers got me...

Damn, I had no idea. Still sucks. Dude was a legend.

I just don’t get why prolific, rich people tend to off themselves. Is it because they feel that they already have everything and there’s nothing else to live for? Or is it that they feel isolated, and that everyone wants them for the wrong reasons?

Pasqually is in the lore of Charles Entertainment Cheese

lagomorphlecture , in TIL Many hotels including Hilton and Marriott collect guests’ used soaps, scrape the hair and stuff off, then melt them down to make new soaps.

Yummy, glad to be using some rando’s used soap. But on a more serious note as long as it’s being done in a way that is sanitary and doesn’t risk spreading any diseases then this is much better than producing all that waste.

PopularUsername ,

It’s distributed to poor countries interested in free soap. They don’t reuse it within the hotel, and people that receive it know it’s recycled.

I question if this is actually an efficient way of donating soap, it’s quite an intensive process I wouldn’t be surprised if this was one of those feel-good things that actual costs more than just making new soap.

lagomorphlecture ,

Yeah, you could be right that it is just for the feel good press to make them look good. Look at clothes donations. It tanks local textile industries and they’re sometimes stuck with piles upon piles of used clothes that don’t even look nice. Maybe there’s something similar happening here.

Drusas ,

One of the people involved in getting this program going has commented on this thread. You should ask them about that. I'd be curious to know the answer.

Man when my nephews were young we’d go to Mr. Charles Cheese. Their pizza is absolutely ridiculously good for what it is.

This is why I always take the hotel soap with me

There’s a great video on the concept of ghost kitchens that I highly recommend

electronicoldman , in TIL That Chuck E. Cheese Secretly Sold Pizzas on Delivery Apps During the Pandemic Under the Name “Pasqually Pizza”

I mean I guess this particular instance of having multiple lines of business is new but the strategy is as old as the concept of business.

dudewitbow , in TIL That Chuck E. Cheese Secretly Sold Pizzas on Delivery Apps During the Pandemic Under the Name “Pasqually Pizza”

A lot of chains had ghost kitchens. Off the top of my head, Applebees had Neighborhood wings, and Cosmic wings. Boston Marlet had Rotisserie Roast.

I think this is common now. Honestly not a bad idea for a company that was completely reliant on in person and not exactly top of mind for take out.

Thanks for triggering my germaphobia.

But then again, I’d probably be too afraid to travel.

i_suppose ,

Isn’t soap supposed to kill all that stuff? Wouldn’t germs die when in contact with it for too long?

you know that half-liquid stuff? that stuff.

people don't shove soap up their ass.... never happens... those little soaps aren't really large enough for it...

You wouldn't want to do that anyway. Stuff up the arse needs a flared base, or you'll end up with a hospital visit.

Whatever it is, I bet it's not going to waste either.
