Both couples said "we only want one salad bar per couple. Within minutes, one of the wives and one of the husbands went, got piles of salad and an extra plate for their spouse. I'm not sure if you call that arrogance, rudeness, cheap, or what but that doesn't set well with us.

Your post brought back a memory from my past ........ long before we were thinking of retiring, neighbors of ours purchased a winter home in an RV park somewhere close to Clearwater. They would tell us with great pride how they would go into a restaurant, order their meal and then ask for a box to go to the salad bar. Evidently, in those days, salad bars had shrimp and other goodies as well as Salad. They very proudly told us they ate their meal in the restaurant and took the box of salad home and ate out of that for two days. The punch line is ........... he was an investment broker!
I remember at that time telling my husband "I am never, ever, going to Florida" and look at me now!
