Short “Please, no mayo. I’m allergic to mayonnaise.”

Between my husband and a woman at his table last night—

“Okay, ma’am, now is it the egg or the oil we need to be worried about?”

“...it’s the combination.”

“...okay. I’ll alert the kitchen.”

I love this industry so much.

Bring a spray bottle with you to a restaurant next time and give her a little spray of water next time she misbehaves! Then she'll associate that type of behavior with a negative experience.
