Panera: Pay what you can afford
Panera Bread Co. has reopened a downtown Clayton location as a nonprofit where customers can pay what they can afford.
“Take what you need, leave your fair share,” says a sign at the
entrance of the Saint Louis Bread Company Cares Café. Patrons who can’t
pay are asked to volunteer their time.
The café, which reopened Sunday as a nonprofit, has cashiers who
provide receipts with suggested prices and direct customers to the
store’s five donation boxes. The menu is the same, except for the
day-old baked goods brought in from sister stores in the area.
“I’m trying to find out what human nature is all about,” Ron Shaich,
who stepped down as Panera’s CEO last week but remains as chairman,
told USA Today. “My hope is that we can eventually do this in every
community where there’s a Panera.”

Mo Sup said people can no longer to be trusted. She's
basing that on the government the majority have elected. But, the
people who voted for, and continue to support Obama are, yes,
politically ignorant, even plain stupid, but are not liars and croo
- Crap. Never mind. Sigh.
