Original Title: TIL A restaurant in Long Beach, CA, was found to be serving Popeye's chicken and passing it off as their own. They would buy the chicken at Popeyes and upcharge for their own chicken and waffles dish. Once found out the owner refused to apologize.

Sometimes at the pizza joint we would get bad mushrooms from the truck. They were presliced and maybe someone let them set out at the factory? But sometimes they'd be slimy right off the truck. I'd toss them out, place a refund request, and then go to Kroger at 2-3AM after we closed to buy all their button mushrooms and slice them up.

Even more rare that we'd be so low I would go buy out two Kroger's. They aren't even 24 hour anymore. It's a shame, grocery shopping in the middle of the night after work was pretty nice.
