and it was very good, yet every where you look you would see advertising, e.g. on the food wrapping/boxes, walles urinals, toilets, employees tshirts etc. And do you think this would be a good business idea?

And yes there would be very strict hygiene rules, so everything was clean and people who are unhygenic would not be allowed to enter the resturant.

Yeah, I would take free food even if it wasn't that great, but especially if it was good. I don't know if it would be a very good business idea, though. You'd have to make sure that you made enough from advertising to cover the cost of the food, the cooking, rent, utilities, etc., and still make a profit. And that would probably be hard because I think you'd get a lot of customers if the food were free.

The advertising all over the place wouldn't bother me at all. It might actually make a fun atmosphere. But I would question why you are giving away food. If you gave out free fries with every sandwich, or if you were generous with the meat portions on the sandwiches. (You know when you get a burger and there is this really thin pattie, or get a sub sandwich but all you can taste is the lettuce and onions .... because there is hardly any deli meat on it. That drives me nuts! ) If the food is good, and is a decent price I don't have a problem paying for it. If you are hoping to make the money off advertising that's fine. Just charge less for the food you are serving than the other places.

I'm not sure why everyone assumed the food would be prepared unsanitarily but the idea is a good one to ponder. In this day and age where advertising fuels everything, why cant the products at some places be free? Its a good concept but I think it would be better if the food was just really cheap. Better overhead! And to all of you who think the food would be gross, dont forget we do live in a society that has rules and regulations that this imaginary company would have to follow as well.

I wouldn't go. Any place that is as you describe would really annoy me..another commercialized place. Just having pop-up's and all these ads on the internet is bad enough! And this may sound odd, but I think paying for your meal is a good thing. It's what keeps smaller businesses going.. little restaurants and diners who can't afford big advertisements but stay open because of dedicated customers who appreciate the food, waitstaff and more intimate atmosphere.

The entire idea behind a restaurant is to go pay and enjoy food you don't yourself want to cook. If I walked into a restaurant and all the food was free I would be hesitant. Actually I would leave. I am VERY particular about food preperation, service and taste.

No... probably not if that's the way you would run it, I mean c'mon....That's sooo rude... Clean people [with good hygiene] and money would be able to pay for their food... So they wouldn't need free food. Poor people might need the food, and usually poor or homeless people don't have the best hygiene... so you wouldn't let them in. What are you gonna say if they walk in? "Get out! You're dirty and poor!"
**Didn't think so...

it would depend onto if it was the restaurant i usually go to, but otherwise no since the food could've been over a week old before they cooked it up and that would be bad for business.

I like my internal organs working properly.
If the food was free but in unsanitary conditions, I'd have to pass.
