    Editor's Note: My edits were all made to keep the video on one, central topic by editing together relevant commentary from many parts of Hasan's streams to create a storyline that is still followable by the viewer. I also edited in commentary of my own in places, in addition to relevant external information that improves the viewing experience. A lot of edits were made for comedy purposes, or to enhance the comedic timing of certain beats, but never to misrepresent Hasan's point of view.

    i remember working at a fast food place that served gluten free bread. we had to wipe the counter that the bread never touched, and change our gloves - but all the sandwich toppings had already been touched by regular bread gloves in previous orders. at least at this chain restaurant, it was all for show. cross contamination was 120% happening everyday. i’d often warn people who ordered the gluten free bread because it felt wrong not to.

    Also with pineapples- when I worked produce and had to chop dozens of pineapples a shift for fruit trays, my arms would break out in on rashes from the acid in the pineapple juice. It wasn’t an allergy, but the citric acid is really strong and will erode your skin. It’s used in skin care for exfoliation and brightening.

    i used to work at carrabbas, they also make tender shack ghost chicken lmao but what’s so bad about it is that the managers do not have additional cooks on the line to manage the ghost kitchens order, so the cooks are constantly overwhelmed. and when we have a full restaurant, we still get tender shack orders in. they have to go “servers” (position is called car-side) and their pay is based off from trips but they do not get any of the tips for ghost kitchen orders but still have to manage them and give them to customers in their cars. ghost kitchens just benefit the owners at the cost to the employees who are doing additional work without additional pay for that work.

    i've eaten at one ghost kitchen and it was legit. there was this vegan egyptian restaurant that i really loved. it was super good and they even won best restaurant from a local paper in 2019. then covid happened and they lost their restaurant. they moved into a ghost/communal kitchen that had maybe 6 other restaurants in it, including a dominoes pizza. i think maybe 3 of the other restaurants were vegan and they all had extremely different menus. egyptian, southern comfort, thai or something and a sandwich/burger place. i'm not sure what the non vegan restaurants had, maybe it was the same as the vegan places but i think that's fair enough. i went there a few months ago and the egyptian place was gone. i was super bummed and looked them up to see how long they had been out of business and they had moved and were back on their own again. i imagine they'd be completely gone with the ghost kitchen keeping them afloat for a year during covid. so they aren't all bad, and in rare circumstances they can actually be a good thing. there's got to be a better way to fund small restaurants though

    The real discussion here needs to be around what this does to workers, their wages, their ability to organize and collectively bargain, as well as the safety of the workers and the products they produce. I would guarantee that one of these facilities have far less restrictive health inspections since they do not allow public dining or pick up. They most likely qualify as some sort of food manufacturer instead of a restaurant, which changes all the rules of inspection and operation.
    Less competition allows these large entities to lower wages industry wide in their area while also raising prices to the maximum threshold that consumers will still reluctantly pay due to convenience. These places are an affront to the working class and should be much, much more heavily regulated.

    Dennys does something similar, they have 2 “online restaurants” that are really Dennys but they changed the names of some items . We have separate packaging for it so the customer doesn’t know it’s really from Dennys lol…one is called burger den and one is called the melt down, they are online only so like Uber eats and stuff like that lol

    You know, when I order Chinese food, I would prefer it be prepared by people who know how to cook Chinese food. In the south, we have a ton of Mexican restaurants with owners from Mexico. When I order from a Mom & Pops, I want a really good sandwich that my grandma could have made. I want to support these restaurants. The ghost kitchens feel a whole lot like false advertising.

    This makes so much sense. I was doing DoorDash the other night and I had an order for some cookies, I couldn't find the restaurant and it brought me to Casa Ole. Confused I went in to ask them about it and the manager said "Oh yeah, that's here". Later when I went back I noticed a sticker on the door that some kind of burger was sold there and now I'm wondering if it is Mr. Beast Burger. I'm going to check next time I go back.

    I bet the MrBeast burger thing was a place that got the franchise label and then rather than buying the official burger kits from MrBeast, they bought the cheapest similar ingredients that they could find, so that they could still get away with "it's what you ordered. It's those same ingredients".
    As for my own experience with ghost kitchens... there are a couple chains famous for being a single ghost kitchen here, operated by the delivery platform owner and it's super good. They do burgers, indian, bowls, korean, burritos and a few others. Unfortunately I moved to the edge of my city and now neither they, nor any other good places actually deliver here...
    The ghost kitchen stuff isn't that different from the thousands of turkish operated pizza, burger, asian noodle (and frequently, but all things considered surprisingly not as often as you would think, kebab) shops we have here anyway.

    I think one of the reasons you might have multiple "burger restaurants" in a location is that they do sneaky shit like give different special offers for the different places to entice people to order. Case in point - I know of two Thai kitchens operating from the same location. One of the locations offered BOGO offers on certain items. And the other Thai kitchen offered a completely different set of specials.

I don't have an issue with existing restaurants hosting another business in their restaurant as long as the food is similar, they make it known and comes from the same kitchen. Same thing with combination pizza hut/taco bells. Same kitchen, well known(and known by food inspectors), mostly similar ingredients just on a different medium.
