Where's the Beef?

I wanted to pass on a funny story from DCA yesterday...

I'm standing in line with my 2YO at 'Award Weiners' to get him a hot dog.

#4 on the menu is portobello mushroom with peppers and jack cheese (clearly a vegetarian option)

A family group comes up and orders various items, including three #4's. The CM tells the person ordering that #4 has no meat, no hot dog. The person ordering yells back to his family: "there's no meat in #4", "no meat" they reply. There is about a 2-3 minute discussion about "There's no meat.", "no meat?", "no meat!", "no meat?". They are all stunned and immediately switch their order to the #2 'hot link'.

Only in California.....

Maybe they thought it was a hot dog "with" mushrooms and stuff. Must happen enough that the CM pointed it out.

Yes, that's exactly what they thought. It was just their reaction to 'no meat' that was funny....IMHO.

Yummy....

my favorite pre Pixar parade treat.

I love that the CMs *warn* you "no meat"
so unlike their normal upbeat banter.

no worries, I won't try to bring it back and throw a fit.

I saw the thread, "Where's the fried chicken" & immediately thought of "where's the beef" & then VOILA! I saw your post! LOL

My DD actually did that while I was not w/ her, she ordered a portobello burger & expected meat WITH the mushroom, she didn't expect the mushroom to BE the meat! She even peeked beneath the mushroom.

Hahaha....I could totally see a group of people standing around, eyebrows raised with a puzzled look on their face....shrugging their shoulders..."No meat? No meat!!??? Where's the meat?"

Thats funny.
