| Saw these guys at a gas station tonight, googled the company, and found this thread ![]() Anyway, at a gas station in north Calvert, I spotted one of the vans at the gas pump. The guy had the rear doors open, and was showing meats to an old lady who was about to break out her purse. She didn't appear to be smiling, and he was using very stern voice and language. I intervened. ![]() I asked the lady if she had the time. Then asked the Capital Meats truck what they were selling. I then asked the old lady if she was REALLY interested in paying that much money for steak. When she whispered "well he won't leave me alone", dude stepped in and asked me to "Mind your own damn business". At that point I announced to the gas station customers that their meats are sub-quality and a known scam across the country on the internets that prey on the elderly. The old lady quickly headed back to her car, while the salesman gave me the look of death. Long story short, he did not make a sale. He did leave a patch of rubber, squeeling out of the gas station, however. |

| Geee, who would ever think that buying meat out of the back of a truck from sleazy guys cruising residential neighborhoods would be a bad idea? |

| I would have... they took 500+ dollars from me after I spent a month at John Hopkins from brain surgery and complications, and a week or two in ICU there... I get home and I'm still on portable IV stand and all and they were bullying me into buying their meat and demanding to come in my house. I felt very vulnerable and didnt really have that much money to spend (on disability) ... especially as a single person for all these meat products. Luckily being near Christmas time I was able to give a lot away as gifts. |
