What do I do if there's
something in my food?

You know the old joke . . . "Waiter, what's this fly doing in my soup?"

"I believe it's the backstroke, sir."

But what do you do if you find something in your food?

Well, shrieking is out. Calmly explain the situation to your server and ask that the dish be removed and replaced.

When it's something that could cause harm to you or another diner (a shard of glass or a screw from kitchen equipment), alert a manager so the staff can find the cause and discard the whole batch.

When dining at someone's home, the polite guest will do his best to remove and ignore any non-harmful object.

Note: This "info'toon" first appeared on our site in October of 1999. We hope you'll enjoy it and some of our other "vintage" tips during the next few months.
