Fill 'er Up!!

Tonight we went to a local restaurant that has a buffet. Well, you would have thought that I had never eaten a piece of meat in my life. I always joke that I am meatatarian, not a vegetarian. I had shrimp, deviled crab, chicken (several kinds) and roast piled all over that plate. On the side of the plate sat about ten little lima beans. When I go to a buffet, I act like it is the only time I am allowed to eat meat. I look like I have been on a big hunt, and the meat is my prize. I always figured at buffet prices the only way I get my monies worth is to fill up on meat. So if you are spooning up some blackeye peas on the buffet, you won't have to worry about me standing behind you puffing and huffing to hurry you up. I will be on the other side where the meat is at filling 'er up.

Buffet or Not!!!

Yesterday we found ourselves at Golden Corral to enjoy a nice early supper. My father in law, who is a little man, loves to eat there and he will eat a pile. We got our plates and started to the buffet. I just got a scoop of brussel sprouts (I know...most people hate them), when I saw a senior man push 3 brussel sprouts that were lying on the side of the pan push them back in the pan. Yuck!!! I hope nobody did that before I got mine. Then another senior lady had a big piece of catfish on her plate and she put it back in the pile on the buffet. I am sorry, but once it goes on your plate...it has to stay there. You can't put it back. Mark saw a little boy take a roll off his plate and put it back on the buffet. I can understand a 10 year old not knowing , but senior citizens handling food and then putting it back for someone else to eat? You are not at home people. I don't know if you are clean or not, and talk about germs. My clincher was that a grown man got a cookie, picked it up and smelled of it then laid it back on the buffet. I mean talk about disgusting...this is why I don't like to eat on buffets. People are nasty and don't think. We left, and my stomach hurt. I am not sure that it was because it was so full or it was feeling disgusted by all the nastiest I saw. Buffet or not??? I say not!!!
