Please avoid the Dodo (aka chick food central)at the Gateway. They don’t ask if you want fries with that because they don’t have any on the menu.

A place with no fries is no friend of mine. I asked if I could get fries on the side and was told that they don’t have fries but they could pile on some alfalfa sprouts. My chin still hurts from when it hit the floor.

Bring on the mice… what about rats?–bigger, badder, and grosser.

I agree that the restaurant owner is impacted by this idea. What about a rubber rat in front of the restaurant that just your wife sees?

I think, though your idea is humorous, it is not practical nor is it fair to the restaurant owner, staff and other patrons.

How about pretending to get horrible gas from all the fresh veggies. They sell a fart machine on soimmature.com for $15.75!

You can stop at a fast food place on your way home from said restaurant because you’re still hungry. Maybe she’ll realize that a big salad is not enough.

You can suggest she save those kinds of restaurants to go to with her friends…but then you’d be home watching the kids…but you could order a big pizza…with lots of veggies!

Hey Donkey, don’t you think it’s counter-productive to your constant attempts to get your wife to work out more (i.e. lose weight I suppose) to refuse to go to healthy restaurants with her?

This is truly … um… one of the better ideas you’ve had, there Donkey. I am impressed. Next time my wife wants to go to a Vegan restaurant, this is my solution.
