Selling expired peanuts might be a new low for Aramark. Not that they care.

Best by dates might be a suggestion in your own pantry/fridge, but they should get blasted for selling that at an LSU baseball game. Especially something like peanuts that probably have a year or so shelf life.

Wait until people learn that the hot dogs they throw out to fans in between innings are the hot dogs that didn't sell the day before.

I seriously can’t understand how something like this isn’t a breach of contract. They must have the ultimate vendor contract of all contracts

They pop the popcorn for football games a couple days before and throw it in huge garbage bags. They reheat it and serve it to you for $5-$6 at the game. They also re-use what isn’t sold the prior week sometimes if we have back to back home games

Yecch. Say it isn't so, Joe. But... stale peanuts are still a cut above stale hot dogs and burgers that taste like leather

My biggest complaint is why can’t they attract and keep local vendors anymore. They must make the contracts nearly impossible to make enough for it to all be worthwhile. The food at Alex Box could be so much better without much effort.

How Woodward continues to let that shite company serve what they call food at games is beyond me. Surely he’s had to have had many complaints about them.

Aramark has had & lost numerous contracts with the State, various depts requiring a variety of services. Non performance of contract requirements being the common complaint. Yet they kept getting new contracts. Pure raw politics.

Yeah but did you get the little packet of jalapeños? Those make up for a lot.

LSU needs to make Changes.

Aramark is what you get when you cost cut to maximize profit. LSU should operate in a way that maximizes customer satisfaction. Doing the former is what gets you a half empty stadium in the 2nd quarter of an SEC game.
