A Delicious Free Enterprise Contest Entry

[omababy]

Free enterprise is great but due to human nature it will always have an undesirable end in the form of less choice and higher prices. There are many glaring examples of this if you're willing to look.

[gospodyina]

Congratulations, sandwich.

[pastiewhitelightning]

Sandvich is so delicious!!

[blogegog]

Great video! But did anyone notice that the butcher was selling ribeye for $17.95/lb?!?

[meredithbragg]

[greyhoundfriend123]

I'd like to see some homegrown tomatoes, onion and lettuce as choices in the sandwich. And a good aioli sauce!

Truly beautiful. Thanks for "Free Enterprise" :)

Nicely done. You might have mentioned where to find these businesses are, though. I had to find out that they're in Alexandria, VA, by looking up "Cheezetique".

CLICKY CLICKY CLICKY for STAN

[VengerDFW]

Send this to... lemme see, what is 435 plus 100 plus 1? Okay, send it to 536 people I know in Washington...

[Michuru81]

But did the sammich have mustard on it!?! You can't just leave me hangin'!

[fleebus090]

are hookers free enterprise?

[Kenro200x]

I put this vid on my blog. Good luck!

[SuzCald]

Yum!!! What a great entry. I LOVE these businesses. Thanks for featuring them so beautifully. It's a great message and these businesses demonstrate free enterprise so well!

[ddyszel]

Can't wait to try out these great shops. What better acclaim for a spot than to motivate action!

[MacTipper]

Wow, 0 dislikes, very nice!

Good job on the vid!

[EscapePodFilms]

I'm assuming the new Stan is on the way. Let us know if you need another fake ad!

[himmelsm]

I <3 bacon

[MBerginRealtor]

Terrific! We love all three of these shops and are so lucky that they are in Del Ray.

[rustyfrisbee]

Yay small business! Now I'm hungry.

[Watersong73]

I used to live one block over from these places - they have awesome food, great service, and they are always in demand. The businesses work together (i.e. Cheesetique carries Caboose's bread), complement each other (cheese, meat, bread&coffee) and make a delightful place to shop for a delicious dinner... or sandwich. Great video!

[rlitt2op]

boy oh boy.

[rlitt2op]

Boy oh boy.

[mrghost]

Even though a bacon-cheese sandwich seems gross to me, I twittered this.

Posted this on my Facebook page

[gospodyina]

I'm curious as to the content and quality of the competition, yet I don't want to give them higher view counts. Dilemma!

I will just assume they suck.

Props on having consistent color and lighting in so many locations.

[BurningBeard22]

Please make Defenders of Stan again. Good vid.

[ddenhardt]

Great little video on Del Ray and free enterprise. Go Jill & Cheesetique!

[meredithbragg]

@stormypup say no more.

[r0bbk1dd]

Now I want me a bacon, cheese and free enterprise sandwich. Nom nom nom.

[meredithbragg]

@r0bbk1dd the sandwich was pretty ridiculous. probably the nicest sandwich i've eaten all year.

[boyofutica]

Great job! Good luck in the contest!!

[zyppoboy]

This is a comment response for the video you've just watched

[Coulrophobic70]

Well done, I liked that you used real business owners and the sammich looks awesome.

[CoreyRobertson2]

ok, i clicky-clicky'd for the sake of the big honkin... now wtf are we supposed to do?

[meredithbragg]

@CoreyRobertson2 you are a saint.

[Banerixat]

Mmm... bacon cheese sandwich.... Free Enterprise looks freaking delicious.

[dezmoanded]

capitalism makes prostitutes of us all

[Grug16]

I vote for you!

[kathiehagen]

I got a good laugh that this is being sponsored by the US Chamber of Commerce. They care only about huge corporations, who practice ANYTHING but free enterprise. How hypocritical.

[crimsong19]

Very cool and inspirational story!

[dancinggoon]

That sammy looks great! And I know a thing or two about sandwiches...

[phillipstr07]

Great microcosm of free enterprise. Great Vid!

[erinanneweston]

[xerocx]

"..but her passion was cheese..." best quote in a Free Enterprise Video yet!

[meredithbragg]

agreed!

[lmagyar921]

Oh that was yummy

[xerocx]

Now I'm hungry for smoked gouda! great video..

[hawkjensen]

Well done!  Looks sharp across the board. And the bacon! Oh man... the bacon.

[fullblu3]

[meredithbragg]

@fullblu3 it tasted even better.

[fullblu3]

Nicely Done!
