"eeny meeny mynee moe where did all the real food go" ?
Cleburne TX is about 25 miles south of Ft.Worth, but it's a whole world away when it comes to simple things.Here is a couple of examples. We have a wal-mart super center like most every town in America, we also have a huge wal-mart central supply warehouse. The problem is we have the worst stocked store anywhere i know of, why? We have a Sears store too, but you have to order everything from the catalog. That brings me to the main subject, food. I have established the pattern that Cleburne goes by, so maybe this will make since, maybe not.Up until about ten years ago, going to a restaurant meant TacoBell, pizzaHut and many more of the same. So it was big news when Chilis then Applebees opened, then more and more. Then something happened that nobody believed would ever happen, Cleburne went wet. Plans for more places to open are in the works and i see no end in sight. Sounds like things are going good in Cleburne but are they? Seems to me we have been enslaved by the mega-restaurant steam roller. What happened to the real food places, with a real cook or a Chef, that uses fresh and or local produce. We do have a couple of places left, like "The purple turnip" and several Mexican owned establishments. Overall i fear for the future of our food culture, and there is not a thing i can do about it.
