CW: Story about eating meat
When I was 13 this is what I wanted to do for my birthday dinner with my family. Eventually the restaurant told me I couldn’t have more shrimp but they brought me the little birthday dessert instead. This did not satisfy me, I did not eat it, I yelled for more shrimp. The manager came out with one final plate of shrimp and the bill. By the end my count of shrimp scampi was well over 2 dozen.
I was unhappy but begrudgingly accepted it. This was my first radicalization moment. Capitalism lied to me, the shrimp was not unlimited
Red Lobster decides to test the waters for ending popular menu item, scapegoats gullible customers. Smarter-than-thou magazine falls for it first, does free PR work.
I’m smelling grassroots advertising actually.
“Oh wow, red lobsters limited-time deal is so good they’re losing money! Id better get some while i can!”
New headline next year:
Red Lobster Bows to Fan Campaign, Announce Return of Unlimited Shrimp
Wait you mean RED lobster? filthy communists with their promises of endless free stuff
objects to the concept of a communist lobster
Never bet against the human spirit
Homer J. Simpson bankrupts Red Lobster

These types of restaurants have always been super funny to me because the food certainly isn’t worth the price you pay and they’re really no different than any other fast food joint at this point
And people believe they’re getting a meal fresh from the kitchen lmao
It’s all incredibly silly
Didn’t this happen with crab legs at some other place?
Happened in Bournemouth in the UK. Several builders walked in, spent £1 each and just emptied the place in a day. Also happened in Brighton years later.
