His Wife Tried To Whip Out A Sausage Roll In A Vegan Restaurant For Their Young Son And Got Angry When He Told Her To Put It Away
This man and his wife are from the UK and currently have two kids together – a 4-year-old son and a 3-month-old baby. And while they were recently visiting a different city as a family, they decided to stop for lunch at a restaurant that just so happened to be vegan.
For some clarification, none of them are vegan. However, he thinks his 4-year-old son is a great eater who wouldn’t have had any problems trying something new.
“As it turned out, my son said he wasn’t hungry, so we didn’t order him anything,” he recalled.
Yet, throughout the lunch, his wife wouldn’t stop asking if their son wanted something to eat, and their son just kept saying no.
Well, rather than taking their son’s word for it, his wife refused to back down. So, in the middle of their lunch, she proceeded to pull a sausage roll out of her bag.
A sausage roll is a popular savory dish that’s exactly what it sounds like – a sausage wrapped in puff pastry. Earlier in the day, his wife had bought one while they were all walking around the city.
He thought it was really inappropriate to take out meat in the middle of a vegan restaurant, though, and quickly told her to stop.
“I immediately told her to put it away,” he said.
According to him, this wasn’t a first-time occurrence, either. He claims his wife has an “annoying habit” of whipping out random outside food for their kids while they’re at restaurants, and they’ve disagreed on the issue multiple times.

So, when he told his wife to put the sausage roll away, she just said that nobody in the restaurant would care about it – especially because their son was only 4 years old.
“And I followed up with a firmer, ‘Not only is it not purchased from here, but you’ve got meat out in a vegan restaurant. Put it away,'” he revealed.
This finally pushed his wife to pack up the sausage roll, but she was obviously frustrated with him throughout the rest of their lunch.
However, when their son inevitably became hungry not long afterward, their son just ate a good amount of food from both his and his wife’s plates – which he thought was fine.
In the wake of what happened, he cannot understand how his wife didn’t realize that taking out sausage inside a vegan establishment was a jerky move.
At the same time, he realizes that he could also be in the wrong here.
“And it’s actually okay to be so oblivious just because you have a child,” he vented.
What do you think? Are children an excuse to take outside food items into restaurants, especially meat in a vegan restaurant, or not?
