Have you ever gone over to a friend's house to eat and the food just ain't no good? I mean...the macaroni's soggy, the peas are mush, and the chicken tasts like wood! So you try to play it off (like you think you can) by saying that you're full. But NO..you're friend says,"Mama, he's just being polite, he ain't finished at all! That's BULL!"

So your heart starts pumpin' and you think of a lie
And you say that you already ate
And your friend says "Man, there's plenty of food"
So you pile some more on your plate
While the stinky food's steamin', your mind starts to dreamin'
Of the moment that it's time to leave
And then you look at your plate and your chicken's slowly rottin'
Into something that looks like cheese
Oh so you say "That's it, I gotta leave this place
I don't care what these people think,
I'm just sittin' here makin' myself nauseous
With this ugly food that stinks"
So you bust out the door while it's still closed
Still sick from the food you ate
And then you run to the store for quick relief
From a bottle of Kaopectate

Which would make the event all the more memorable!

My friend's and I are the type to text a photo of what we're cooking. It's understood that is an invite for dinner or supper.

You can tell the age of the OP with the question. Us OFWG's know how to handle this, just bring several bottles of wine, the stuff you like! Even if the meal is so-so.. washed down with enough wine and you are just a bit of a wino... instead of being an ungrateful wino if you push the meal away.

My biggest concern when that happens is "do they have any cats or dogs inside?" because I don't enjoy supper with a side of fur.

When I became old enough to not be a picky eater this problem went away.

It’s sad that you would even have to worry about this
My friends can cook their asses off and anytime we get together for dinner it’s going to be a great time

I immediately send over my list of 35 different dietary requirements for me and my wife.

If they can't meet my simple expectations, I decline.

Just ask "Red? Or White?" Typically they will tell you what they're cooking and then you can decide if you should eat before you go.

And no, I'm not fat.

We are the host house for 90% of our friends and I love to cook. For the few friends that we aren't, its friends whose cooking I love.

So I'm excited either way.
