I took the kids to supper at this little family style restaurant.

It has a salad bar, hot vegetable bar and you order your main entree from your waitress.

I am at the salad bar picking through for best pieces of romain lettuce, choosing nice tomatoes, cucumber, garden peas, kidney beans, shredded carrot, pickled beets and suddenly there is the woman right under me. I mean I could feel her breath on me. She was literally pushing me along. Any minute I expected to see her hand reach around me and under my plate to grab something.

She was with a man which I presume was her husband and the whole while she talking ninety miles an hour.

This is the convo -

"They don't have real bacon for bacon bits," says she.

"They don't?", says he.

"No. No real bacon bits." says she.

Long pause.

"You forgot to bring your own bottle, didn't you?" says she to he.

Is this for real?

Do people go to restaurants these days and bring along their own condiments and bacon bits?

How many people walk into a full service restaurant with a bottle of bacon bits in their pocket.

Have you ever done anything like this?

Do not count when you take different food in to a restaurant for a child. That is a bird of a different color.

I am talking about a full grown man and his bottle of 'real' bacon bits.

What is up with that?
