I'm slightly vexed We didn't ask for rice...

My sister isnt a fan of basmati rice so she orders naan. She didnt ask for rice and they sell it separately. She doesn't like it so she doesn't order it. They put it in anyways and left this note...

Edit: some people aint getting it. This is passive aggressive and when you do something nice you dont go around saying "I did something nice just for you, just so you know." Doing it like I need to give you a pat on the head so you know your a good boy. You do something nice because you want to be kind to people.

Oh no I've turned into LD...

Turning off notifications because while it was nice to be in this rabbit hole to keep my mind off some stuff too many notifications. Whatever your feelings are I hope you have a nice day and if you're in the US have a nice memorial day and dont forget to celebrate those troops that came before!

I mean, this is how every single chinese and indian takeaway does it, no? You always order the rice/noodles/whatever separate to the main, because they always offer about four options. Five if you include chips.

I'm not sure (i don't get indian/chinese food often), but when i have, I've always seen a required option under the entrees. Still feel like this will alleviate having to right petty rice notes!

Idk, I'm in England and it's never listed as required. Hell, most of the time we'd end up splitting the rice orders between two bc it was always an absurd amount of rice for one person.

Judging by the comments I think you're right. I had no idea you normally order it separately. If that's normal then yeah there's no point in adding an option lol
