‘Face Diapers’ Not Needed: Florida Restaurant Advertises Mask-Less Entry

Videos by OutKick

Shirts and shoes are still required, but you don’t need masks to enter one Florida restaurant. Or “face diapers,” as the restaurant calls them.

BeckyJack’s Food Shack in Spring Hill, Fla., shared a Facebook post Sunday that reminded potential patrons that the only things they need to bring are an appetite and a wallet. And if they decide to bring a smile, by golly, people would actually see it.

“Howdy Folks! Happy Valentine’s Day A friendly reminder that we DO NOT require Face Masks,” the post read.

BeckyJack’s also posted a sign in its window that garnered some attention. “Face diapers not required!” it read. “Everyone welcome.”

Of course, since the establishment is located in Florida, it faces zero penalties — as Gov. Ron DeSantis has not implemented statewide mandates and is even blocking municipalities from enforcing their own mandates with fines.

“We’re getting a ton of feedback, both positive and negative,” said Jesse Fox, the restaurant’s owner, in an interview with a local news station. “I don’t feel like I am going against the grain. I feel like I’m using common sense.”

  1. If we want things to go back to normal, we need everyone to show a little courage, just like this restaurant. Be willing to face down the requisite backlash for about 72 hours ( the attention-span of the average germaphobe cancel person; after 72 hours they get bored and move on to something else).

  2. I wish I was near there to be able to support them with business, we have a few places in Colorado that are doing the same, but they have to do it on the down lo or our Governor, who called folks like me ‘selfish bastards’ will fine them and most likely try to humiliate them.

    Whoever this entity is that we are up against, you cannot deny their tremendous skill. What better and quicker way to deepen division and promote fear (conditions that help pave the way to a ‘reset’) then to invite a very questionable practice that is the antithesis of what America stands for (individualism, liberty) and make it seem like you are a ‘selfish bastard’ if you don’t comply.

    Do I think all the establishment (left or right) are in on this, of course not, they simply have not or do not want to muster the courage to do what their gut is telling them is right for whatever reason.
