Frank Bruni Is an American Hero
Today's dining section carries a huge Frank Bruni piece (or, at least, a hugely arted Bruni piece) detailing a cross-country drive on which he sampled nearly ever sort of fast food known to Americans — 9 days, 15 states, 3,650 miles and 42 visits to 35 establishments, as he reports. He ate In-N-Out burgers in California, Whataburgers in Louisiana, Varsity hot dogs in Atlanta, Sonic tots in Kentucky, and White Castle sliders in New Jersey. He did it all in a rented Taurus.
We have no joke here, no dig. We just want to say that Frank Bruni is our hero. That is all.
