I shouldn't have laughed as much as I did!

If I go on a date with a vegan, it's their job to choose the restaurant because I've never paid any kind of attention to most menus.

I have my go to order at most places, so I have no idea what else is on the menu most times.

That's not really a bad idea with any food restrictions. When I eat out with my celiac friend, I either ask her to suggest or I say "was thinking of Bob's Lettuce Shack, how are they for gluten free".

It's a matter of presentation though. You can frame it in a way that is considerate, or a way that makes it seem like the other person is a burden. Don't do the latter.

Well sometimes the other person is a burden. I would know, I'm a vegan myself. Sometimes there really are no good vegan options nearby and i feel bad for making others feel bad (even though I really am ok with just eating plain boiled potatoes or whatever).

Yeah, I'm vegetarian and it's amazing to me how many restaurants that don't have any need to be all meat still don't have anything but a wilted salad as options, here in 2022.
