I'd bet my Trump check that every one of those is locally HQ'd and/or owned by local franchises.

Be that as it may, that's not what people think of when they say support local.

My man that owns 26 Mcdonalds does not fit my definition of a "local" enterprise. I'm going to support restaurants that are Boise specific and owned by people that don't have vacation homes across the country.

The BBQ place that had to reduce half of it's workforce and is barely scraping by because they can only offer curbside pickup and delivery now? Yeah, they will get my support over the McDonald's franchisee. Sorry.

Exactly. Franchises are fricking expensive operations to run.

I don't see why these should not be supported.

I actually live in Athens and several of us are like "really" what about our local eateries in and around town like our great restaurants downtown or in Five Points or other locally owned places in Oconee County.

Kind of silly for them to only list corporations. Zaxbys is based here so that makes sense. But yeh bad list.
