This seems to have been a previous notable. However, anon would like to take the opportunity to say that perhaps lots of people will stop going to Panera even if other forms of payment are accepted. Personally, anon would not feel comfortable entering this store knowing they collect such information. What other information do they gather? Face recognition tech in use? No thanks.
Also, Panera originated as "The St. Louis Bread Company". At one time that name was still used on stores in St. Louis. Not sure if that is still the case.
