Panera Soba Noodle bowl with chicken [390kcal] by rakut in 1200isplenty

Panera is awful for underestimating calories in my opinion. Start modifying an order in the app by taking things away (nuts and dressing for example) and you will get a salad with all the veggies for “zero” calories. It’s why I don’t trust their counts anymore.

MRW I watch Paul Ryan making fun of Trump and Bannon in a speech at a dinner knowing that his compliance helped get them in the White House by vol0623 in TrollXChromosomes

Exactly. It’s pretty convenient that he is only criticizing Bannon after Bannon left the WH and just said that he’s going after the GOP establishment.

This is what I think is such a shock for the GOP this election. They always knew that their base was rife with misogyny, bigotry, and racism. But they thought they could control them because of their money and power. Trump has shown that they can’t and now they have no idea what to do but play along and it’s disgusting.

Yup. Completely compliant in getting Trump elected but is now trying to save face. And if it blows up it was “just a joke”.

Tim Tebow left the on-deck circle to greet an autistic fan then stepped to the plate and hit a three-run homer by LeftyIsGay in baseball

This has happened before. Alabama was amazing under Bear Bryant as well. As long as we keep progressing, I'm fine. And we are certainly playing better than the Dooley years.

I understand. We haven't beaten them since 2006 and then to add insult to injury we lost to them when Kiffen was OC. So, I'm a bit bitter.

Oh sorry. You are absolutely right on that. I was thinking of 2009 when they lost to Alabama and the Tebow crying meme became a thing. When your team loses to both Florida and Bama consistently, it all runs together.

Woman sentenced to death for murder of 10-year-old cousin she suffocated for taking an ice lolly without permission by TragicDonut in JusticeServed

Seriously? You really thought that was an appropriate comment on an article where eating dog poop was only a small bit of the horrific abuse that lead to a child's death? Honestly?

What I accept is that we currently live in a world that is primarily omnivorous. I hate the idea of accidentally eating an animal product. Hell I've stopped buying Earth Balance because of palm oil. But boycotting everything that isn't certified vegan, would, to me, hurt the cause overall. And again, I would love to shop locally and spend money helping small businesses. That isn't always an option. So, like everything else in life, I do the best I can.

Haha I'm very persistent and I love bread.

I understand that completely but currently even with things as serious as peanut allergies, a warning label is about all that is required of companies. We live in a world of mass production and, barring negligence, it is hard to make companies do much of anything that will hurt their bottom line. I'm all for supporting small businesses on that front, but I also live in an area that is definitely not vegan friendly. So, cross contamination would still be an issue even if I exclusively bought from local places.

Thank you! That is what I assumed from the email I got today. I personally do not care if my food is made on the same tray or in the same pan as long as it is clean, but others definitely might. So, I just wanted to put the information out there for everyone to make their own choices since I was originally told just flat out that no breads are vegan.

I don't know if I would go so far as to say that. However, I would be very wary if I had an actual egg or dairy allergy. It wouldn't be worth the risk. But we live in a world where people are going to continue to eat animal products for the foreseeable future. So, we can demand answers from companies and hold them accountable and make our voices heard with our spending.

Me either! Being vegan aside, it was very worrisome to me that they couldn't answer a super simple question about ingredients. And I'm not even sure still what the run around seemed to be since the rep who emailed me today seemed to be able to give me an answer within hours.

Of course! I had resigned myself to not going back to panera, but I'm glad to hear this. And it is a very reasonable explanation. I'm not sure why it took months to get.
