Boston Market
 
Is there anyone out there besides me that likes Boston Market?
I have tried on my own to get them to come to the Villages, but have had little response. I've sent them a ton of info on the Villages. I wrote to the Villages Real Estate Development office, and they said that the voices of the Villagers would be needed to convince BM to come here. Please, if you like BM, tell them.Go On line and send them a comment to 'come to the Villages'. It seems only a 'ground swell' of support by Villagers can make this happen. If you live south of 466, and close to 466A like I do, you KNOW we need more restaurant choices. Brownwood it not the only answer. There is vacant land right on 466A in front of Publix for a Boston Market. Please please give them 'buzz' and let them know we could use them here.. Thanks for your help..
:ho:

Love Boston Market ! Guess that's two of us.

I like it, too. Healthier than a fast food dinner.

I like the Boston Market menu but only ate there occasionally at home because it wasn't conveniently located to my house. Their business must not have been very good because it closed and a McDonalds went in.

Boston Market creamed spinach.....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

I wish there was one here also. I'm sure they would do well.

The nearest one is in Ocala and we bring some of their meals back when visiting.

There is absolutely nothing healthy about Boston Market food. All of the vegetables are drowning in butter, or more likely some fake substitute containing trans fats. The chicken is ok if you don't eat the dark meat or the skin. The corn bread is loaded with fat and processed refined carbs.

Most people see chicken and automatically think it's healthy. The only healthy chicken is baked or grilled chicken breast. Everything else has as much fat as any other meat and the skin has more fat that most cuts of meat.

People also assume that fish is healthy so they go to MacDonalds and get a pice of crappy fish covered in a think layer of batter containing unhealthy refined carbs and then soaked trans fat oils for five minutes.Then it's covered with a mayonnaise type dressing like tatar sauce.

There is so much crap being passed off as heath foods or healthier alternatives that is no better than a Big Mac and fries.

Mickey D's has probably sold over a billion Big Mac and Fries; can't be all bad (I have had about 1 or 3 of those 1,000,000,000).
