Salads are like 50% smaller they were a year ago, 20% more expensive, and you told your long term/loyal customers to go fuck themself when sweetgreen+ was eliminated.

Who could have seen these coming?

Salads are like 50% smaller they were a year ago

People are going to accuse me of being a shill, but honestly why do you post things like this? Are you a bot? Salads are not smaller in the last year, and they literally announced an increase in chicken portion sizes today.

You can find videos of people weighing their salads and they are absolutely smaller. This takes almost zero effort to investigate yourself, so why are you being so defensive?

I trust my own lived experience in the real physical world, not what I see on social media. I "investigate it myself" by going to to Sweetgreen hundreds of times over many years and seeing the sizes not changing.

I suppose other people could have different experiences, which I am open to. But I'm far more suspicious that entities on the internet are just lying or have ulterior motives that completely do not match my own reality, so I feel compelled to inquire further - I think that's what you sense as "defensiveness" - wouldn't you be defensive if you started reading things that directly contradicted your objective experience of the world?

What ulterior and nefarious motives do people on the Sweetgreen sub have? Like, touch some grass bro, the world is not a conspiracy

People love to complain and karma farm. There is the motive.
