I’d be shocked if only half the dishes include one or more of those ingredients - it’s not that there are so many ingredients that you don’t like, it’s which ones they are. Onions, mushrooms and celery are very common.
If refusing to consider anything containing 4 of the most common vegetables doesn’t make someone a picky eater, I’d be curious to hear what you think does.
A vid that showed up on my YouTube offerings yesterday was about a man who ordered the ‘vegetarian’ breakfast option on a plane flight.
He was given a banana.
Just that. One banana, raw, still in its intact peel.
He ate it, assuming it was some sort of appetizer or first course, but nope. That was the entire ‘meal.’ One banana.
I don’t think those are the most common vegetables. Onions sure, but it’s not hard to avoid pickles, celery, and mushrooms, unless you only eat French cuisine and/or stews. Also, I specifically mentioned all the different types of food I like, which most stereotypically picky eaters wouldn’t go near.
If you’d just said pickles, celery, and mushrooms I wouldn’t have commented. But add onions and tomatoes and you’ve included a huge chunk of the produce section. Also, I don’t think I’ve cooked a meal in the last 5 years that you’d approve of, because I put onions in damn near everything.
Well, it was the breakfast option.
What did they expect… a 19-course banquet?
A few seconds of googling returns that a banana has 105 calories, and that breakfasts should contain between 200 and 400 calories.
So at least they should have given him a second banana!
What could it cost, ten dollars?
Delivered to the airplane after being TSA screened and USDA outgoing international agriculture standard screened? Proabably $10 is not far off.
