NO MORE PRET!

Due to budgetary constraints, I limited my ventures to Pret (A Manger) some time ago.

However, I was just informed that THEY ARE OWNED BY MACDONALD'S!!!   

I for one, am... gobsmacked.

Yeah McDs bought a huge share a couple of years ago. Go to Subway instead!

yup they are!!!!!

pret food is always a disappointment to me.....but sometimes i have to do it.

i had their crayfish salad once and it was decent, but the dressing was NASTY.  I'm kinda off them at the moment.

Do they have these places in the US too!?  Never been to one, but I thought I heard about one in Bosotn?  Same theng?

Pret is in NYC for sure.  I think there are six just in Manhattan.  I've been to the one in Rockefeller Center and on W 50th btw 6th and 7th when I used to work in midtown.

Hmmm, so funny, I lived there and never saw one!  Oh well, from Amy's review I am not missing much!

Yeah, you're not missing much, especially when you can get a nice big pastrami on rye with mustard which you can't even finish from numerous delis for the same price as a pret sandwich which one can finish in a few bites.     Though pret does have some unique sandwich combinations which I used to try every so often.

Only one I liked was the avocado wrap. Very tasty.

Now I'm big into Ainsley's Cajun Chicken Breast Wrap. Just thinking about it makes me drool. (luckily, I just had one today for lunch, so I'm full.)

what shocks me about pret and eat etc. are how they can take normally healthy ingredients and make them so bloody unhealthy,

my salad i LOVE from pret has a gajillion callories in it-and it's just hummus and veg!!!!!!!!!!  lay off the sesame paste people!

I'm crushed!! I really liked Pret, but now that I know they are owned by McDonald's, never again will I darken their door.

It's just all so annoying!!

Please don't tell me Planet Organic are owned by McDonald's!!!
