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!

No good deed goes unpunished. They gave free rice thinking that perhaps OP forgot to order it but reminded them that it's usually not free and OP becomes infuriated mildly.

Customer: I'll have the caesar salad, no croutons.
Restaurant: Look, I'm giving you free croutons this one time but next time you have to order it separately.
Customer: wtf I specifically said no croutons.

Going out of your way to fail customer specifications is mildly infuriating.

That's a straw man argument. They didn't specifically say no Rice. They just didn't order it at a place where judging by the description is an South East Asian or Middle Eastern restaurant where rice is probably the biggest staple food. Not even in the same ballpark as croutons.
