Yes. That is foolproof too

My salads have leaves. These egg and tuna contraptions have no right calling themselves salads.

And I think in Quebec, mayo is a common condiment for french fries. Ugh.. when I visited, I wondered why they would throw in little mayo packets along with my take-out meals at restaurants, then I saw people dipping fries in it.

OK. One exception. Until someone else points out another.

I am only really opposed to the slop like egg and tuna salads. At least Greek salad doesn't look like someone stuck a couple of hard boiled eggs and some mayo in their mouth, chewed them up a bit, and spit them out onto a bun. Or on a plate.

The fact that people actually enjoy egg salad, and any of its sandwich derivatives, offends me.

People are human. People make mistakes, especially when restaurants are mobbed during the lunch hour.

Take responsibility for your own food, and if a mix-up occurs, it's the perfect chance to complain and get free stuff (free sandwich, free coffee, coupons, rainchecks etc.).

Do you think the guy who got your sandwich is going through the same disgust.

Can you imagine - "I ordered and egg salad, and look at this crap I got"

P.S. What did you order?

Was this the subway on the food court on 5th & 5th by chance? I was there today as well and it really was a gong show. The staff working the veggie line really were getting ahead of themselves.

It's not the egg salad that makes me queesy.

It's the full linear foot of egg salad.

If I ate that my office would become a bio hazard zone. My chair would need to be taken out by a hazmat truck sticking to sparsely populated roads.

Egg salad is supposed to be served by the half sandwich by blue hair grandmothers along with a glass of prune juice. A foot of egg salad is beyond critical mass and should be covered by some sort of dangerous goods legislation.

I couldn't bring myself to touch it- not sure how people can... Bleh.

I realized shortly thereafter that this entire situation may be karma induced- i had accidently on purpose left my leftover pork chop lunch at home this morning because I didnt like what my wife had made (from last nights dinner)

Thats what you get I guess for spiting the wife's home cooking and being a diva.

I ordered a delicious egg salad sub today and some bozo walked off with it, leaving me with an Italian BMT.
