Brittany Reed of Waynesville, Ohio, was having a hectic day with her three children.

Between doctor's appointments, football practices and school, she made a last minute decision to stop for food at McDonald's. The result of that decision was more than she expected, as she outlined in a Facebook post:


I am praying this reaches this young mans parents!!!

Tonight as I was leaving football practice with my three kiddos my 4 year old was so tired he started crying and acting a fool as we were getting in the van. My 7 year old daughter started crying because I told her we were having red potatoes as a side for dinner and clearly she wasn't a fan sooo I threw my hands up and said FORGET it - McDonald's tonight !!

We go through the drive through order food all three kids are now crying for one reason or the other I go to pay - I LEFT MY PURSE AT HOME. Welp now I wanted to cry. I look at the young man with tears in my eyes just from being stressed and annoyed and say "hun I am so sorry but I have to cancel that order I left my purse at home when we went to football tonight" WITHOUT HESITATION he takes out his wallet and swipes his card before I could even say "no I will be right back!"

I was like wait no hun it's ok I will come back through then he replies "no it's totally fine, my pleasure".

I snapped a quick picture and asked his name to which he replied Wyatt Jones ma'am. I told him I would be right back with cash for him & he tried hard to talk me out of it.

I just want his parents to know how KIND & COMPASSIONATE your son was tonight! He made this stressed out momma pause for a moment and realize this is exactly what we parents are trying to do, raise great humans. Well Wyatt sir, you are an amazing human!!!

I went back and handed him cash and had to make him take it because he didn't want to take more than he had paid but I wanted him to know that when you put good out in the world it comes back to you ten fold !

Wyatt, do not let this world change your kind heart young man for its people like YOU that will change this world for the better!

Fast food isn't nearly as cheap as it used to be. And certain places are more expensive. McD's is still probably one of the cheapest ones though while Wendy's is one of the most expensive. If you can stick to the 'value menu' and only get a couple of things, but if you start going for the combo meals, you can easily reach $10 or more per person.

Many times in the past before his death at age 96, the late, great Jack Lalanne said that if it came in a box, bag, bottle, or can, then don't eat it. Of course, I'm not a health nazi, so I don't give a shit, but I do concede the guy's point.

You guys mentioned Jack Lalanne so here's my story.
The year 1974. Setting, beautiful campground along the Pacific coast north of Seattle. Dad had left the portable TV he took everywhere sitting on the picnic table.
My brother, myself and a buddy returned to camp from hiking the trails down to the beach and were sitting there shooting the shit oblivious to what was on TV.
Along comes a newscaster with film crew in tow and tells us she is doing a story on what people are doing over the holiday weekend and asked if she could film us.
We said , "Hell yeah, we'll just turn the TV off."
She's like,"Nope... the TV is why we chose you."

So that is how 3 teenage boys ended up on the evening news watching Jack Lalanne in a Pacific Northwest forest.

but if its good for you, what's the problem? :lol: although kale is disgustingly bitter unless its microgreened. my neighbor has some hydroponics going and gave me a bag of salad that had a bunch of kale in it, and it was sweet and delicious - but you cant let that shit grow past 3 inches tall or it starts getting grossly bitter
