FYI-they did a very slow roll out of the cards in my area. Apparently Cincinnati and Dayton had them months ago, and they became available in Columbus in the last month or so.

I'm also addicted to Panera's iced green tea. So wish I could replicate it at home.

In keeping with the paean to Panera's:

NPR: Panera Opens Second "Pay What You Can" Shop

According to The Detroit News, Panera learned from the Clayton [MO] shop that "20 percent of patrons give more than the suggested donation, 60 percent give about the same amount and 20 percent leave less." There are no cash registers; just donation boxes.

Cool.

I wish more businesses were VOLUNTARILY socially conscious, rather than the government forcing it the people.
