I am easy. Simply don't give me a choice, because otherwise I'll be hit by choice paralysis. Order for me. ‍️

So she just needs to throw out ideas, problem solved!

Jk I have this problem too. I want things riiiiiight up until they are on my plate ready to be eaten. Then I lose interest.

It’s worse with going to eat, because the work involved in cooking really cements me to eating that thing.

I don’t think that even exists here (it probably does, but it’s a minor option) but that’s probably because literally everywhere around here does fish on Friday (year round and way better than fast food but also usually fairly cheap) and a lot of places do on Wednesday as well.

And during lent, fish is always available. Chain fish places do very poorly here, other than like crab, lobster, or sushi.

Idk where you're from, but it may also be a legal/health thing. Long John Silver's is notoriously unhealthy, even by American standards.

Was Long John Silvers even around in the 80s? The quality of fast food was definitely better, but I think there were fewer options. I remember Taco Bell was not absolute garbage back then.

It seems like by the 90s you had more options. 90s JITB was awesome.

I live in the Midwest USA, I’m like pretty sure it probably exists, since we don’t care about our health (3 of the 4 drunkest cities in the US are within an hour drive of where I live, and it’s also the dairy capital and so we aren’t a healthy bunch overall) it’s just not a typical option since we have high standards for deep fried fish specifically.

She tries to be like me. "I dont care, i just want you to pick."

Mexican? No. Indian? No. Italian? No. Sushi? No.

Oh so you do care. This is why you always pick. I will eat anything at any time.

Choices paralysis is easy to overcome. Just close eyes and stab randomly at the menu

I'd eat anywhere that offered a mariachi band

Whenever I get through two options with this, I say, “Okay, you pick. I don’t really want to play this game. If you don’t want to pick I’ll make one of the first offers.”

Yeah LJS has been around since 1969, and they were incredibly unhealthy until the 2000s. Now they're merely mostly unhealthy lol. And idk, it depends on what you were looking for. Taco Bell was great in the 90s, at least nearby my hometown, but the quality could shift a lot from location to location.

Finally enough I avoided JITB until the 2000s because of some big e.coli scare in....1995? I think? I knew nothing about them until that because they weren't in my part of the country then, but even when out of state, I wouldn't go there because of my first impressions coming from the news. Pretty damn good stuff by the time I did go.

"Isn't it weird how the chef always seems to recommend the most expensive item on the menu?"

it's because it's Italian

I'm thankful I'm not a picky eater. I'll eat anything and it's the company that makes the biggest difference for me when eating out. On the other hand, it makes it hard for me to lose weight.
