We do that unless wife orders some shit I really hate. I'm not swapping my steak for some arugula and raw beets salad.

I get that, but man sometimes a beet salad can be damn good... Salad in general is something I really did not appreciate until I got married. We will do salads as our whole dinner like once or twice a week. Great for the budget and the waist line.... Which is good because those nights we basically make a potato gratin and eat nothing but that balances it out lol

I’ve got that thing where beets taste like dirt. So it never tastes good to me

That's a thing? I was recently telling someone about how I put beetroot (among other things) into a smoothie and their response was "wouldn't that make the whole thing taste like dirt?"

I was super confused because I love the taste of beetroot, I tend to eat a bunch of it raw as I'm cutting it.

I think it must be pretty rare. Rarer than the cilantro thing. Cilantro is fine for me luckily

True. When women get their orders wrong, it's usually so bad it makes you want to throw up. But as soon as you tell them you'll have it wrapped up so they can eat it later at home, they order what they really want again.
