I'm kinda speechless.

Ok so because of Covid, there was no #BiteOfSeattle for 3yrs. Then Cheq bought it & are the new owners. (I didn't realize anyone "owned" it.)

They launched an app 6mo ago.

Here's the appalling rundown of how to ruin a beloved local event (since 1982) in one fell swoop:

Vendors:

✓ required to use the app
✓ paid ~$5k for a spot
✓ had to pay 16% of all sales to Cheq
✓ forbidden from taking cash or use their own POS systems
