Food pet peeves

Because I’m feeling trivial, I’ve decided to post a couple of my own personal food and restaurant pet peeves. If you’ve got any you’d like to add, shoot me a comment and I’ll add them to the list. What fun we will all have being picky complainers.
1. Sandwiches dressed with sliced tomatoes without the green stem/core removed. Hard, chewy, nasty.
2. Mexican restaurants that pre-bag chips for to-go orders. Don’t they know how quickly those things go stale?
3. Drinks that aren’t filled up all the way. Especially high balls.
4. A restaurant that won’t serve lemons with water anymore because not everyone actually squeezes them into the water. You know who you are!

If anyone wants to add to my list, feel free. If not, I’ll just find something else to complain about. I’m kidding, of course!

    Wait staff who carry cups and glasses by the top, putting their fingers where my mouth goes. Cups have handles for a reason!
