It’s not exactly a universe-in-the-balance fight like Avengers: Infinity War, but earlier this week tensions flared after one of New York’s office-lunch standards, Just Salad, joined fellow roughage slingers Fresh & Co. and Tender Greens in ending the option to chop its salads. Chopt, with it’s modus operandi clearly spelled out, is bringing a double mezzaluna to the fight.

Personally, I liken this whole affair to the over-versus-under discussion of bathroom tissue rolls, but to witness the Slack fights and Tweet storms, for others, it’s clearly a matter of knife and cress.
