I went out to lunch with friends to a place that had subs, pizza, and calzones. I ordered the best option, an 8″ turkey sub with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and mustard.
I was with four other people and some of their food came first, all varying subs with a side of fries. So I had to endure a good five minutes of repeated offers of fries to eat while waiting for my sub.
My sub arrived to the table and it came with fries! I ate the sub (8 points), but I didn’t touch the fries and offered them to the others. But I felt so guilty about not eating the fries because it was wasting food and everyone else was eating theirs. I caved and ate 6 of them. But I left a good helping of fries there and feel so bad about wasting food.
Now I know that I will have to be specific at this particular place and say, “No fries!”
