Dispatch from the Department of Irony

According to one study of health code violations at grocery stores the least safe grocery is.... Safeway .

Granted this is a Dateline puff piece, so take it with the appropriate (large) grain of salt. Just so this post isn't total fluff here's a related safety link which might stop you from going to your favorite resaurant.

I couldn't find any Chicago restaurants I know of with significant violations, which I guess is good. I even limited my search parameters to a strip of Ashland avenue with some particularly nasty places, including a DUK'S, and they all came out OK. Anyone know of any egregious violators?

DUK's kicks all kinds of ass. How dare you taint the good name of Duk's. Were you around when they were a mini-chain of about five of them? Disney sued them for using the name Donald Duk's, although I think the owner's name really was Duk's. When I used to teach the tards over by Ashland and Grand, I would sometimes walk over with them.

Disney is the false prophet to the Wal-Mart Beast. I can't believe those fuckers sell happiness for 250 bucks for a three day pass.

Why anyone pays to go to "fake Europe" at Epcot when the real one would cost about the same is beyond me.

And, I like Duk's. Yummy italian beef, and the dirtiest joint yet allowed to operate. You can even get it through a window to the outside, if the long 10 foot walk inside is beyond you. And deluxe outside accommodations make the Ashland Duk's a must--Zagat's gives them four stars.
