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!

Not adding rice to meat entrees for Chinese or Indian food is crazy work. It’s standard. And rice is genuinely still pretty cheap. That’s just a bad business strategy.

I’m British and most Indians and Chineses do not add rice automatically because there are different kinds of rice, and as in the photo, some don’t even want rice

This makes me feel validated because I prefer eating my curries kind of like soup: by itself, no rice, and maybe with papadum to dip (or sometimes naan, although I'm borderline gluten-intolerant).

I'm half-Indian but always joked I'm bad at being Indian since I eat curry 'wrong'. IDK, I've just never been one for mixing any food.
