And if everybody dined alone what you are saying WOULD make perfect sense. But a quick survey of a dining room shows more tables of 2, 4 or even 6 diners than they do of single , 1-tops. So it's not just about you or just about me. It's about our friends and family with those with which we associate, love and choose to dine with. I'd like to see ALL my friends that I dine with have a good time, eat a good meal and hopefully no one feels singled out and left to feel that they matter less than the rest of the party. I'd never want anyone that I'm with to feel that they have to "suck it up" and eat only what I deem acceptable, or only the foods that I enjoy. Again, this isn't about who should or should not eat whatever. It's about restaurants pulling in as many as possible, playing the odds to earn the jack. After all, would you refuse to eat at a restaurant because they DO offer a couple of vegetarain options? I'm gonna guess as long as you can get your meat option you'd be OK. So by offering a vegatarian option they've lost nothing and increased their revenue possibility. Is there a problem with that? American dietary habits are changing. It's just that simple. Restaurants will either keep up with demands or earn less.

Throughout all of these posts the point some of us were trying to get across was marketing, getting people through the doors, surviving in a Covid world, covering your overhead. For all I care a restaurant can sell nothing but boiled chicken breasts (but only the left breast) and we wouldn’t care. We WOULD question the wisdom behind doing so however. All I added was that more and more people are experimenting with vegetarian diets and how some restaurants could capitalize on it, even those that are not strictly vegetarian. Why is ANY of this an issue?

I believe it is terrible you are discriminating against the right breast. Both breasts should be equal.
