How to order a vegan meal?

[Guest guest]

Today, my son wanted Taco Bueno for lunch. As a rule, I hate fast

food joints, but he was insistant. So, I asked for a taco salad

with beans and rice instead of meat and cheese. After the jerk

looked at me like I was crazy, he said, " well, okaaaaaaay, but

that's a strange request? " I said, " you've never heard of a vegan?

Oh, and no sour cream. " He took my order down and sent it to the

back, and when it came up, you guessed it, sour cream all over the

place. I said, " they put sour cream on it, " and he says, " I'll take

care of it, Ma'am, " and procedes to wipe the sour cream all over the

salad, trying to lift it off. I said never mind, and started to

walk away, assuming that would get me a fresh salad, which it did.

But this one had cheese UNDER the rice and beans, like they forgot

and tried to cover it up. Well, I said, forget it, and walked out.

They've still got my money, too!

 

Anybody else have a hard time getting a decent meal dining out?

Oh good grief, Monica!

 

I'd have blown up - how did you restrain yourself? (Okay, I know the answer:

'With difficulty.') And after all that you still hadn't had a meal!

 

Sympathies.

Oh, Monica!!! Besides the vegan issues, that was downright rude! I personally

think you should have stayed, gotten what you wanted & NOT paid!!! ( " Oh,

manager... " ) But that's me. Beth

yep same thing 7 layer burrito at taco bell EVERY time. I say no cheese, no

sourcream and they never get it right. Usually they don't make a big deal out

of changing it though!
