While were on the subject of fast food, I don't see how LJS makes it after another 10 years or so.
I eat there now and again. Everytime I do, I am the youngest guy in there by about 15 years. I suspect once the baby boomers pass on, LJS will go with it.

I used to like their fried clams but they changed the batter a few years ago. I could ask this same question about waffle house.

We used the same ad agency as them years ago. According to them LJS did 75 percent of their annual sales during lent. That always amazed me.

Worked at Captain D's for a week in High school, but transferred to McDonald's for the better company structure.

He is truly a sick individual.

I ate at one about a year ago for the first time in 8-10 years. It will probably be another 8-10 years before I do it again.

I love LJS as well. I just dont see how it survives after the baby boomers die off.
That **** ain't good for our body and the younger generation wont touch it.
