An shout-out to Pita Pit

Pita Pit really never gets the attention it deserves. The staple in every college student's diet is pitas. They're delicious, and they're somewhat more healthy than whatever the local cafeteria is serving.

"Fried Chicken Nuggets dipped in a vat of butter, oh goodie!"

Pita Pit is a good friend of mine, it's always bailed me out when I've been stumbling around at three in the morning with a severe case of the drunk munchies.

And go figure... it's a pretty good business too.

"Pita Pit Inc. has moved up on Entrepreneur Magazine's 2008 ranking of the top franchises in the United States, jumping from No. 212 to No. 195 on the prestigious list. After analyzing franchises that range from food service and retail companies to hotels and specialty supply stores, Entrepreneur annually names the top 500 U.S. franchises based on factors such as growth, stability, quality, and presence across the country."

And like most good things, Pita Pit started in Canada, but the USA branch is actually headquartered in Coeur d'Alene.

Which means, I'm about to make a drunken trek there just so I can rub elbows with executive Pita Makers. I wonder if they work while they're high too.
