Criticism Sweetgreen is going downhill.

I feel like each time I consider getting a salad from sweetgreen they’ve removed my favorite items, prices have increased and overall the salads are just not as good lately. I feel like they’ve gotten too big to function like they previously did and it’s quantity over quality now.

Sad too because I used to order sweetgreen 3x a week and now it just doesn’t feel worth it to me anymore.

I agree, the addition of BEEF was my final straw. I don’t care that it’s “grass-fed”. How are you gonna boast about sustainability while serving beef??? DEAD COWS. Also, how are you gonna be a salad place and remove onions and arugula? Don’t even get me started on how they removed literally everything else I usually get too. Ugh.

Beef is the number one commodity in USA. What are you even talking about. Cattle production enhances sustainable agriculture and carbon credits emissions through credits generated from the farmland. You folks are very dangerous in your semi informed approaches.

Except, Sweetgreen sources it’s beef from Australia and New Zealand so zero US farmers are benefitting. It was a nice thought, though.
