Well, I think the title says it all. But if you really need a full blog post about it…here it goes.
Up until a year ago I didn’t know what Panera was. I thought they made bread. I mean, that’s what the sign says, Panera Bread. It wasn’t until I asked a co worker what to get for lunch one day that they suggested Panera. I was like, “Don’t the just make bread?” They laughed at me. Apparently, I didn’t know. So they told me to go and check it out.
Now, thing about me is, I get intimidated by new places. I don’t know why, I just get all nervous and flustered and don’t know what to do. So I walk into Panera, and Whoa…the place is big. There’s baked goods over here, sandwiches over there…and lots of counter space. I had NO idea where to order!! After a few minutes of standing there like an idiot, I got flustered and walked out. So much for having Panera for lunch. I didn’t go back for weeks.
Then two of my friends came over, and they showed me the way. Well, really, just one of them, because my other friend is just as anti-new places as I am. So we go to a different Panera…and like an angel from heaven, there’s a sign…Order Here. I can’t tell you how that made my day. So we ordered up some food, got it to go. We got it home, set it up, and BLAM-O! I was hooked. I didn’t truly understand life before Panera…but now all the intricacies of the world all became clear to me. With each bite of my sandwich and delicious Greek salad, I became more self-aware, more aware of the world around me…it was like I was seeing everything in HD for the first time. It was…bliss.
And so, one year later…I find myself craving Panera more often than not. I don’t know WHAT they put in that food, but man on man is it awesome. The other day I even parked illegally because the parking lot was full and I needed my Panera! Don’t try to stop a man from his food…a dangerous thing to do. My favorite combo is the 1/2 Greek salad with a 1/2 chicken chipotle sandwich….usually with the Baked Lays, sometimes with the apple. No matter what I get, I always get the Greek salad…I could eat that day in and day out…maybe that’s why I have these blood pressure problems..
So, my suggestion to you…get Panera…get addicted…get ready for a mind-blow experience!
