My biggest problem with sending food back is that now you have to wait while everyone else at your table eats. Then when your food arrives, everyone needs to wait for you while you eat.
This usually isn’t too much of an issue if your table has a lot of people because you can just chat and the length of time to eat a meal is higher since you all are talking. But when you’re on a date, it’s super annoying and awkward.

Honestly, I would have eaten that burger, before the point the shards glass were introduced. I completely relate.

We knew it was wrong of course…. But we didn’t say anything because we didn’t want to cause a fuss.

Don’t try to wiggle your way out of calling socially insecure or shy people cowards.

I once shared a house with three chefs, who each told me that if you’re sending food back to the kitchen, it’s better to state you don’t want anything else. Get the item removed from the bill and eat somewhere else. If you are with a group, suck it up and go hungry while they eat.
Not all chefs will do something but for some. their egos can’t handle that the food wasn’t right and they take “revenge”.
It’s safer not to risk it.

What? That’s not what happens. I’m a cook by trade. You would get fired so fast.
We just want to get through the day and remaking a dish and cooking it in the first place is no different.
All customers are assholes but I’d never mistreat their food.

I ordered ramen at a restaurant. I should have guessed that they misheard me when they brought me latex gloves. A few minutes later, they carried out a platter of crab and other seafood.

Also a decent summary of the stereotypical Jewish mother and her love of suffering. Also illustrated by the following joke:
Q: How many Jewish mothers does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: It’s all right, I’ll just sit in the dark.

That’s such an American take. I’ve not once left within half an hour of everyone being finished eating.

I’m glad to hear that you’re a decent human being.
One of these chefs had worked in a top restaurant in Sydney, and said some of the crew were like animals, especially towards the end of a long and busy shift.
But to this day their warning always stuck in my mind. So I understand the glass reference.

yeah, feels wrong to waste food just because its not what i had ordered.

what american about this, i dont get it. not america btw

I think it’s hitting on with the fact that Americans are super impatient with anything and when they go to a restaurant they sit down they eat and then they leave there’s no big wait period of socializing(usually), it also could be because it’s frowned upon because we don’t pay the waiters livable wages here, so for every minute that we’re still sitting and not ordering anything we’re taking money out of the Waiters pocket.
That’s how ass backwards the US. But no the Tipping structure is apparently a better system lmao
