Pretty much says it all

[LuvOrlando]

I grew up in a water is fine family, married into an apps family and had apps kids and realize we sometimes just don't get each other, it really is the little things

 

[Disneylover99]

We are a water family.

Some of us order an Appetizer as an entree, some just order an entree, but we rarely order an appetizer and an entree. It‘s usually too much for us. Sometimes we share one or the other.

Same here

Growing up always got a soda or drink now it is just water. Never got apps & dinner but would get apps as dinner.

Is soda and no app an option?

Is soda and no app an option?

Of course! Other is the answer to all things fringe

 

[DLgal]

Apps only when we will share the app AND an entree

Usually "water is fine" but my husband almost always orders a beer.

 

[fab1976]

We are a soda no app family. Growing up, I don’t think either of us really went out for dinner in restaurants.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Water.

If dining out with friends for a nice evening meal, nicer restaurant, then an appetizer and glass of wine.

 

[tvguy]

As a kid, usually milk, and no app.
As an adult, soda and no app.
As a senior citizen, Iced Tea, no App and the smaller Senior sized portion.

 

[DisneyHardin]

Growing up, we NEVER ordered appetizers, but were allowed to order soda.

 

[BlueStarryHat]

Other, because now that I've given up caffeine I get a caffeine free-soda and we generally share an app.

 

[RedAngie]

I don’t think I’ve ever ordered “just water” as a beverage in a restaurant. Coffee, iced tea, soft drink, wine, cocktail, etc.

Appetizers maybe 10% of the time, and those are almost always to share.

 

[JLTraveling]

Definitely soda. We're not big eaters but we like to try different things, so usually one app for the table.

 

[White Cat]

Water is healthier.

 

[DizneyFamof4]

I am a soda or milk guy and my DW and DDs are mostly water is fine. Not big into apps and when we do order, it's to share.

 

[E&Cmom]

Soda but rarely an appetizer.

Soda or water seems unrelated to appetizers as I see it. You could do appetizers with either. I know if we went out to eat with several of our relatives like on a holiday we would usually share appetizers. Typically, everyone doesn't like the same things so we might order a dish of mushrooms and some other things for those who didn't. Before the days it was trendy to drink bottled water, some ordered a glass of water since usually that is free while soda wasn't.

Growing up we weren't that big of eaters, so if our family went out to dinner, appetizers would be too much food along with the main meal as well as dessert. We almost always ordered pop instead of water. Many restaurants would bring out glasses of water for everyone regardless of what else you were drinking.

If a group of co-workers went to a restaurant after work, we always ordered some appetizers for those who were bigger eaters. Generally, everyone paid for their own beverage since there is a wide variety of prices.

Grew up in water only family. Definitely no appetizers. Now? My kids can order soda. I usually order a drink or 2. Sometimes an appetizer, sometimes not.

 

[pens4821]

Growing up we got whatever we wanted. We always got drinks, not necessarily apps but if we wanted them we could.

As I became an adult I’m a water person but sometimes get alcohol. If I want an appetizer or something I’ll get it. So I guess now I’m a water person to save a few dollars but have no issue if the family orders drinks (most of us just get water but not because they have to).

The most annoying of all is a family that makes their kids get water. Then they read the menu and see the kids meal comes with a drink, so they are then allowed a drink. You know a big tip is coming your way when that happens.
