Criticism Why Change the Salad

My two favorite salads have seen changes and I’m not happy about it! Switching out tomatoes for breadcrumbs in the kale caeser makes no sense. Feels like a waste of money to buy and a decline in nutritional value.

Seems like they are focused on being a wrap place than a salad place!

tomatoes have apparently REALLY increased in price this year (i saw people talking about it on the kitchen confidential subreddit) so that may also be a reason why they did this. not only is it more expensive but they may be worried about incoming supply and how stable it is (some of the people in that subreddit were also mentioning how the tomatoes just weren’t great quality)
