I literally tasted a PE takeover once. Those of you in Britain might remember a burger chain called Ed's Easy Diner. They had a shop in Soho, served really good "American" burgers and shakes. So good I used to yearn for them after I left the country. I came back after a few years, and found they had expanded. I excitedly took my family to eat at one of the new branches. I took one bite of what appeared to be my old favorite, spat it out, and immediately reached for my phone. The burger was now made of gristle instead of meat, other ingredients were worse, and the shake was not too nice either. Indeed, it had been bought out not long after my previous visit.
