In 2002 I visited a friend in Nova Scotia. As we were leaving Halifax along a major road out of the city I was incredulous at the number of fast food chain eateries I had never heard of.

Connecticut loves Walgreens/CVS and their Dunkin Donuts. It so ridiculous at times that near my house there are 2 Dunkin, on the same street, just across from each other, and a Walgreens in the middle.

Drugs and shitty coffee is the NE way.

There are places in Georgia where you can stand outside a Waffle House and see another Waffle House. When I worked at "a major airline headquarters in DC" there were three within walking distance of the IT Building.

It's not unusual for them to build two on an Interstate off-ramp if one is consistently too busy. It's cheaper for them to build a second rather than to build a larger one.

Here's Wisconsin's claim to excess:

I would want more bars as well if I had to live in Wisconsin!

That's like Dunkin Donuts in New England.

I bet Dunkin doesn't get an official NOAH Emergency Response rating though.
