What no doggy bags?? We do it all the time here unless its a really exspensive restaurant. The ONLY thing I don't like about doggy bags is if the waiter leaves the bag and box for me to fill. Thats a bit too tacky for me.
I almost always have to ask for a doggie bag. Or a box. Sometimes it is a box. A styrofoam box. A doggie box I guess. Restaurant portions around here are WAAAAY too large. It's such a waste. And I know if I don't ask for a doggie bag, (or box
) they will just throw it away and I can't tolerate something like that.
My Mom used to say "there are starving people in China" when I was young. That always stuck in my mind. Wasting food is a terrible thing. So, I take it back home and heat it up the next day for lunch... and give a little to Cody too. He always gets a little treat in his bowl later on!
