In a cafe, and a woman has just complained (funny)

She'd ordered a bacon sandwich and it's just been delivered to the table. She's now moaning because her bacon sandwich has a tiny crumb of black pudding on it. And she doesn't eat pork.

I feel for the poor staff having to explain which animal bacon comes from 😬

(And no, there's no vegan bacon on the menu so not a mix up!)

Oh 😂

Might she have been thinking of turkey bacon? Many halal takeaways serve turkey bacon (e.g. on a pizza) and it's referred to as 'bacon'.

“A wonderful magical animal”😁

Maybe, but it's pretty clear on the menu that the bacon here is the pig variety. It's a very basic cafe (does amazing sandwiches though!)

Reminds me of the time I was at work and a man asked me to remove the bacon from his chicken and bacon wrap as he "didn't eat anything with a face" 😩🤣🤣

There's been some debate. I think she wants her husband to go to the counter for her.

Oh please keep us posted. OMG.
Is she gonna have a mini-breakdown at the thought she's been eating piggy all this time?
Or will she try and say that they're wrong? (Like a conspiracy theorist).

QuestionableMouse · 15/11/2022 12:26

Husband has been dispatched to the counter. He looks thrilled by the prospect.

I reckon it's the husband who's misled her on the origins of bacon in the first place.

brighterthanthemoon · 15/11/2022 12:28

There shouldn't be undisclosed black pudding on it. But do keep us updated.

Ha how's he going to get round this one

heldinadream · 15/11/2022 12:29

Gosh this is like a parking thread! Do we need a diagram? Could contain woman, husband, OP, table layout, counter and counterstaff and - the sandwich! 😱

Matilda1981 · 15/11/2022 12:29

How is it possible that people don’t know where bacon comes from!!

I agree! Looked like a very small bit though. Not great from an allergy pov.

Husband is heading back, minus the plate containing the offending sandwich. He looks like he has a headache.

I hope not, because my drawing skills are just not up to it! Picture your local greasy spoon, you won't be far wrong.

He said something to her but I couldn't quite hear it!

I'm invested now. Hoping for a resolution during my lunch break.

It took all of my self control not to say "what the fuck do you think a chicken has at the end of its neck?!"

Woman is getting up. It looks like they've been refunded because hubby just put some cash on the table.

To be fair there shouldn't be a crumb of black pudding on it BUT most adults would just pick it off and put it on the side of the plate.

brighterthanthemoon · 15/11/2022 12:35

QuestionableMouse · 15/11/2022 12:34

She's going to the counter.

Is she going to order another sandwhich I wonder.

UndisclosedBlackPudding · 15/11/2022 12:35

Lots of UndisclosedBlackpudding prejudice here.
