Bubble Girl? (short)

[MystyGlyttyr]

Wound up in line at lunchtime today behind this woman who was apparently the mother of Tod Lubitch's female counterpart, guessing from these actual words I heard coming from her mouth.

"Yeah, she can't have bread, she doesn't like chicken or fish, I don't like for her to eat anything too greasy or spicy, and there's something wrong with tomatoes these days so she can't have those or anything that might have touched them, what do you recommend?"

Which wouldn't have been so strange, I suppose, until I looked around and remembered I was not in some sort of actual "restaurant"...we were in BURGER KING.

[Evil Queen]

uh... my recommendation would be frozen water?

[CorDarei]

[chainedbarista]

alpo.

I know of someone who would only eat Kraft macaroni and cheese, with Heinz catchup, and hot dogs. The worst part? He was in incredibly good health. Now, how is that fair?

[calulu]

WOrked with a young guy once that would eat no veggies, fruit or meat. He subsisted almost entirely on Burger King fried cheese, french fries and shakes. Of course he was as wide as he was tall.

[TealJellyfish]

I feel very very very sorry for that kid! Seriously!

[Bloodsoul]

Does those Hershey's Pies count as "bread"? Sorry, but they're so soo yummy. XD

[Coconut]

Haha...

I saw a couple go into Subway once and while the guy ordered a regular sub (or whatever), the girl said, "well... they usually just make me one with just cheese." Yes, she ordered a cheese sandwich. In Subway.

Would make sense if she was 5, but I'm pretty sure she was at least 20.

[cinema guy]

A friend of mine is something of a picky eater and on a recent visit to Subway he had a footlong with just cheese.

The bread I can understand if she's celiac. But for the rest? at a burger king??? wtf........

Let's see. If she's celiac, no fries, they have gluten too afaik. Hmmm no apple pie, no burger at all. No salads (tomatoes). o.O pretty much the only thing I can think of she could have there are milkshakes and icecreams....

[Ringtail Z28]

Pick the tomatoes out of the salad maybe? Get it with grilled chicken instead of fried, no croutons, maybe cheese, probably no dressing. Pretty much a lame salad.

[Rapscallion]

Gluten in fries? Do they have some sort of flour in there to make them from the reformed potatoes?

BK fries in the UK have a 'crispy coating', either flour dredged or a thin batter at a guess. That and reformed potato goop may use flour as a binding agent.

Well Raps afaik my BF shouldn't eat potatoes since they're high in starch (sugars) and afaik starches contain glutten but I might be totally wrong there.
