I’d normally agree with you but not practical if you’re adding onions to your hotdog at the baseball game.
Walking around with a bag of onions in case you encounter a wild hot dog? Either way, could always precut it yourself before you go
The article said good service stores so I assume it’s businesses buying these onions, not grocery shoppers.
Fair enough, though I would expect that businesses would prefer a one time purchase of some kind of food processor that will allow them to save money long term by buying whole products.
I can’t imagine the gas station attendant chopping onions for the minimart. You hear horror stories on sites like this from ex fast-food employees. The thing that seems to be particularly dangerous is any dispenser with long tubes, eg ice cream, beer, soda.
You have to pay someone to operate the Robot Coupe, and maintain the space to store it and clean it. Lots of food service situations can make it cheaper to buy prepped veggies.
No, I tie one to my belt, which is the style now.
Oui.
You're taking your own onions to a ball game?
I’m starting to think you guys don’t leave the house often.
...the vendor gives you the onions. You think they're cutting them himself or buying pre-cut?
Don’t do that.
I know I would never. I've got better things to do than watch baseball while eating a hot dog.
