Who Is Hungry?

It’s Evansville is a fan of fast-food lunch even after seeing Fast Food Nation and Super Size Me. Call us crazy, but we just don’t have time to cook while trying to run this site and keep our day job at the same time. When in a hurry, nothing beats going out to the local restaurants and grabbing a bite to eat. Unfortunately, one of the risks you take with going out to eat is having to depend on someone in a kitchen that you can’t see handling your food properly. Luckily there are periodic restaurant inspections that are made public. Let’s go through that list and highlight some of the violations.
