Eating out

[kuhio98]

Yes, I'll send it back if it's wrong -- against my specific instructions. Like, if the meat is undercooked or if I there is mayo anywhere on the plate when I specifically said no mayo.

But, I won't send it back if I just don't like the taste -- I figure they made it correctly (according to their recipe), but turns out I just don't like their seasoning or something.

I don't regularly eat at chain restaurants so recipes and seasonings can differ quite a bit.

We don't eat out much, even with my broken foot we haven't. Its so expensive and I would rather buy a nice cut of meat and throw it on the grill, its just to easy to be bothered with going out.

I don't think I have ever returned something when going out though, I have even sat and ate the wrong thing before.

I didn't check off anything because my answer isn't on the poll. If I have to send something back, I leave. I don't trust them not to retaliate. Besides, if they don't get it right the first time, it's unlikely that it'll suit me the second time around.

Paranoia keeps me from eating out anywhere. I only eat what I fix myself.

I would send it back if something about the prep struck me as unsafe (undercooked poultry or pork, "off" odor, etc.) If it's not what I ordered, but ingredients I don't like are either absent or can be separated out easily, then I'll chalk it up to a brain f@rt. If it has something I don't like as a key component then it would go back.
