I'll join you in the mud. It has no appeal to me at all. I don't
mind a burner in a plastic basket at an outside stand, but at the
table, I prefer traditional plates, not a hubcap. I don't want to
walk across nut shells and other garbage either. It is supposed to be
rustic and give you some sort of old time wild west experience, but I
prefer sanitation in the 21st century.
