Had an interesting conversation with some of our staff yesterday.  A group of them was chowing down on some flatbreads and salads and I commented on how cool it was that our staff seem to take full advantage of our 70% off associate discount by eating the vast majority of their meals at Modmarket.  One of our staffers pointed out that in addition to everyone liking the food,  almost everyone on our staff had lost weight or been feeling healthier since we opened our doors.  Further questioning revealed that Fletcher (aka Flexor), our mohawk sporting, cross trained salad maker/cashier/dish washer/flatbread artisan had lost 18 lbs since we opened and the only lifestyle change he had made was eating at Modmarket.  That is pretty awesome.  Our food is not health food.  It is just real food.  Simple, whole ingredients combined in ways that taste great.  Our portions are big enough that I don’t think anyone leaves hungry but not so big that people are over eating.  I always figured that if you ate a ‘modmarket diet’ everyday, your health would improve.  This is mainly because it is so difficult to find food like what we serve at Modmarket unless you cook every meal yourself.  And even then, it can be tough (and very time consuming!).  If anyone wants to try this out themselves – email me and we will work out a special discount option for you(first come, first serve).  You eat at Modmarket everyday for lunch and dinner for a month and track your weight and how you feel overall.  Kind of like a reverse ‘supersize me’.    You can order anything you want off the menu, all of the choices are fair game.  Be a fun little experiment.  My guess is that you will feel better by the end of it and maybe even lose a little bit of weight.  Any takers???
