Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]  
INCOME TAXES INCOME TAXESThe income tax provisions reflect tax rates of 28.8% in the third quarter and 28.1% year-to-date, compared with 23.1% and 25.1%, respectively, in fiscal year 2021. The major components of the year-over-year increase in tax rates were non-deductibles losses in the current year versus non-taxable gains in the prior year from the market performance of insurance products used to fund certain non-qualified retirement plans, a decrease in the impact of excess tax benefit on share-based compensation, and an increase in non-deductible transaction costs resulting from the Del Taco acquisition, partially offset by an adjustment related to state taxes recorded in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021.
