    Ok serious question. I live in a country where they don’t serve you free bread.

    What do you do if you eat all the delicious bread then you aren’t hungry anymore?

    I had this real life scenario happen when I was in Canada and we felt obligated to order mains even though we didn’t want them.

    Is it socially acceptable to pay for your drinks and leave?

        Hmm yeah that’s what we figured. We were on holiday, we couldn’t take food home to eat later so just forced the food down then didn’t eat again for 24 hours 😆

        Yeah, we go to Spaghetti Factory (Canada) and fill up on bread and just tip the main course directly into leftovers containers sometimes.

      This happened when I went to America many moons ago, not with bread but regular food.

      We went to this restaurant and you order you main like steak and fries. Then you get a buffet starter and I swear to god it had any food you can imagine. Suffice to say I ate so much I couldn’t even start my main when it came.

      I’d never seen such large humans as when I went to the USA. Breakfast was similar to with all you can eat.
