True. People want even salad made by someone else. Because of lazyness partly, even salad takes a bit of time and effort. Look at ready cut fruits or bread. The more made, the less time you spend on it. We live at such speed, no body has time to put energy even in the food. Which is really sad.

@ Hahaha. You're so naive. Some start-up are corrupt, some start-up lied to investors for their money and most start-up fail once the fad fade and money from investors run out. Ever heard of Juicero??? Juicero was all the rage at one point in time. Alot of investors invested millions of dollars into it, even Tony Robbins (whom is my idol) invested in Juicero. And look at Juicero now. Bankrupt. Juicer is no more. It was a fad. It was a dumb and foolish idea and it failed. All the investors lost their money, they never even got one penny back. You're naive at best, dumb at the least.
They should have drive thru salad pickup service. Why salads are so expensive? Big salad shouldn't cost more than $5. Who wants to spend $8 for a salad?
I really like them being bound to local doctrines and thus serving the local food producers and consumers and their marketing works, (that's what you get when you pay these people tons of $$$$), but I dislike their obsessive millennial tech focus. When you're pitching to investors you're telling about your future plans and I'm not sure if their ABC - AI, Blockchain and Ceasar Salad- will be living up to the hype created - if any, at all. AI could be interesting in suggesting personalized options of course and to predict food orders. There's a potential great use case. Blockchain has been the biggest fad in recent years and it does have use cases for payments, tracking and supply chain, but placing the trust issue on your food producers is like engaging with a party that you don't trust by definition. Why would food producers want to compromise their food quality? Of course they wouldn't, because they care about their produce - they're high end crop farmers. I'm also not sure what value it would give to your users, as they already know that their veggies are coming from local farms. I don't see it working out anytime soon and I'm pretty sure that investors just got extra triggered by the supposed tech to be involved. Either way, they're very inspiring entrepreneurs and I wish them all the best, including more affordable prices for the main public. P.S If anyone knows about their blockchain plans, please update me.

Food for rich people. Where people are tends to spend less on luxury items, due to low income. They are selling salad for $13.

It's probably _is_ the theranos of salads. Lol
Give it a few more years when the fad and hype fades and the invester's money dried up, it'll end up bankrupt just like Theranos did.

Hahaha. You're so naive.
Some start-up are corrupt, some start-up lied to investors for their money and most start-up fail once the fad fade and money from investors run out.
Ever heard of Juicero???
Juicero was all the rage at one point in time. Alot of investors invested millions of dollars into it, even Tony Robbins (whom is my idol) invested in Juicero.
And look at Juicero now. Bankrupt. Juicer is no more. It was a fad. It was a dumb and foolish idea and it failed. All the investors lost their money, they never even got one penny back.
You're naive at best, dumb at the least.

Hahaha. You're TRIGGERED. Big time. 🤣😂😆😆😂😂😂
$13 for a cold salad, this is daylight robbery.
But it’s healthy sarcasm
Sweetgreens need to come to Toronto
They should have drive thru salad pickup service. Why salads are so expensive? Big salad shouldn't cost more than $5. Who wants to spend $8 for a salad?
I really like them being bound to local doctrines and thus serving the local food producers and consumers and their marketing works, (that's what you get when you pay these people tons of $$$$), but I dislike their obsessive millennial tech focus. When you're pitching to investors you're telling about your future plans and I'm not sure if their ABC - AI, Blockchain and Ceasar Salad- will be living up to the hype created - if any, at all.
AI could be interesting in suggesting personalized options of course and to predict food orders. There's a potential great use case.
Blockchain has been the biggest fad in recent years and it does have use cases for payments, tracking and supply chain, but placing the trust issue on your food producers is like engaging with a party that you don't trust by definition. Why would food producers want to compromise their food quality? Of course they wouldn't, because they care about their produce - they're high end crop farmers.
I'm also not sure what value it would give to your users, as they already know that their veggies are coming from local farms.
I don't see it working out anytime soon and I'm pretty sure that investors just got extra triggered by the supposed tech to be involved. Either way, they're very inspiring entrepreneurs and I wish them all the best, including more affordable prices for the main public.
P.S If anyone knows about their blockchain plans, please update me.
