SNRIs are also an option, but they can be worse to get off of than heroin.

It didn't used to be, but that's how it is now.

Doesn't answer 'why,' though. 'Why' is asking for the reason it changed from only ice cream to ice cream and food.

You didn't ask if DQ had changed from ice cream only to ice cream and food. You knew the answer to that. You were asking for the reason they made the change.

The question "why" inherently requires reasoning as a response, though. If the answer had been, "DQs used to only serve ice cream, but the founder wanted to..." blah blah blah, that would be an answer.

Yeah, I definitely remember eating DQ burgers in the 90s.

But like I said, it's definitely possible that if you've only seen DQs outside of Texas, your experience might be different.

That's not an answer to why, though. Only selling something in the past doesn't explain why they do it now. Making more money is the real explanation.

Like 30 years at least. They're famous for their ice cream, but their burgers are great too.

There's also the fact that DQs outside of Texas are slightly different than other states. Or at least that was true 15 years ago in Louisiana.

I mean, larger petrol cars being shittier sounds like a good thing to me. Keeps people from buying them.

And skip the Tucson and get the Santa Cruz. Same car, but with a bed. I absolutely love mine. Literally the only complaint I have is the AC blows too hard on the low setting, and the cruise control likes to downshift when it's not necessary (but then I get to drive it in semi-manual mode). But that's literally me bitching that it has too much power, since it'll tow 3500lb.

But it's not the answer to your question. The answer to your question is business/financially related.

I mean, it's not an actual answer. It's just a historic fact.

The actual answer is that diversifying your product offerings gets you more business. People like desserts after eating a meal, so it makes sense to also sell that meal.

That's the veal industry

Dude, their burgers are awesome. It's one of the few, if only fast food joints that still cook burgers on an actual flat top.

I just wish they hadn't switched to the soggy as fuck steak cut fries.
