Also restaurants cutting costs with filler and drizzle. Went to The Office (terrible name). Got pork belly tacos. A single 1” square wafer, quarter of a centimeter thick with mounds of red cabbage “slaw” and all sorts of drizzles. Complete garbage. Everyone else disliked their meals. Tacotime would have been ten times better. Pork belly should be rich and flavorful and fatty. Not a piece of big chief beef jerky. Terrible restaurant.

I dont like to waste food but unfortunately its the just the nature of our society.
So when I order something at a restaurant I usually just get the fries as a side. Because if I know the main course is going to fill me up, I have no qualms with wasting potatoes. Who cares about potatoes?
I genuinely feel bad for wasting a salad or vegetables, but potatoes? They're everywhere. They'll get over it. Besides, the kitchen staff will probably scarf those before they go to waste.
But man, America.
That poster that was complaining about not wanting the drink from McDonald's? America is insane.
Portion sizes. They're nuts. I went to...I think it was a Sonic, which was a mistake in it's own right but we'll brush that aside for the moment.
Order a meal and the guy is like:
"If you get this meal, it comes with 3 burgers, large fries and this impossibly enormous drink and its $5 cheaper."
Who the hell do I look like? Eddy Hall? I cant eat all that!
"Yeah man, but it's like $5 cheaper than what you wanted and you get way more man."
I don't want it.
"But man, its like....$5 cheaper."
Fine. Give it to me.
I eat 1 burger, a few fries and barely make a dent in a Coke the size of a small lagoon. The rest just gets tossed.
But it was $5 cheaper.
