I agree about the reheating fish thing and I also hate when people look at you weird for not eating all your food at a restaurant.
Whenever I eat out (which I LOVE to do) I always get my food and ask for a togo box right away. I put 1/2 (sometimes more) in it right away so I only allow myself to actually eat one serving. 99.99% of the time, I am MORE than full after eating the one serving so it works for me! But them I get the question, was everything ok??? I've even had waitresses take my meal off the bill becuase they thought I was trying to be nice and lying about not eating it all

i can't believe he said that to you. i would've done the same thing as CyclChyk and would've gotten myself in some big trouble.
i have some sockeye salmon in my freezer that is portioned small, but has two portions in it. (this is one reason why i like processing the fish instead of BF doing it) so you don't have to put up with this dumb@ss again would you like me to send you some?"Forget past mistakes.

Oh yes, that TGIFridays ad is one of the very few restaurant ads that actually inspired me, after first viewing it, to run downstairs and rant to my husband about their three new appetizers. How incredibly artery-clogging and unnecessary are fried mac-n-cheese and fried green beans?! WHO THINKS OF THIS STUFF??? Originally Posted by oxysback
