‘She had a crying fit’: Uncle gives bratty niece leftovers instead of pizza, invokes wrath of sister-in-law

‘He doesn’t even follow my insta’: Food influencer invites friend to restaurant opening, killjoy boyfriend protests she is excluding him

I’m no expert in romantic relationships, but I feel like a pretty important part of them is tolerance. I don’t mean this in the sense of putting up with bad behavior, but rather that it is vital to show support and appreciation for a partner’s interests (so long as they aren’t negatively impacting you). Sure, …

‘Pathetic Martin’: British man’s paltry attempt at restaurant ‘Chilli Challenge’ splits internet opinion

Call me a killjoy, but I’ve never understood the appeal of competitive eating. It is an insult to one of life’s greatest pleasures, which is the leisurely enjoyment of a good meal. Also, it seems like a gluttonous waste of food whether everything gets eaten or not.  Anyway, it’s not like this has ever stopped …

‘It was the most awkward hour’: Guy eats at Benihana alone to test limits of social discomfort

Dining alone can be one of life’s greatest pleasures… if you’re brave enough. Not to brag, but I’m really good at going to restaurants alone. I’ve done quite a bit of solo traveling, so I’ve had to get used to it. Some of my fondest memories in life are (oops here’s another brag) eating at …

Food service is not a profession for the weak, but it does come with some perks. One of these is that you usually get free or discounted food and drink. When you’ve spent a grueling shift dealing with the general public, there’s nothing better than picking something from the menu for yourself, or at least …

A Wooden Table Set With 40 Memes Instead of Manners

My parents were the type of people to send you off to manners school if you forgot to say ‘please’. I once had a fork for everything. A fork for salad, a fork for the main dish, and a fork for dessert. I was informed that no good, self-respecting company would accept me as an …
