I won't eat sushi unless it's vegetarian.

If you are a vegetarian, many sushi places have vegetarian rolls. One of my favorites are the peanut rolls! So good :)

this isnt' something someone brought in - but in nursing school - our instructor made us each take a bite of thickened liquids (water and thick-it for patients who are at risk for aspiration) - not my favorite way to drink water..yuck

several years back, before krispy kreme franchised everywhere, we had a rep who would go home once a month and bring back like 100 dozen and deliver them to her customers..

I was a drug rep (actually more like a caterer with drug samples) for a brief period of time and I always asked offices if they had any preferences for lunch items - some did, some didn't - but the office with my most important doctors in my territory always asked me to bring Kentucky Fried Chicken - by boss was totally shocked that medical staff would eat KFC like these people did - I told her "Nurses will eat anything, especially if it is free!!!!"

now, I work in a Diabetes Center and my boss totally abuses reps who bring us donuts (she tells us we shouldn't eat them and gives them to the other medical staff we share office space with) and if they don't bring water for her to drink when they bring lunch, ooohhh, they are in trouble! she's one of those permanently dieting nurses............. :uhoh3:
