This makes no sense. Salads really do have nuts sometimes, whilst I’ve never heard of bees having steak.
What if it’s honey glazed?

Dammit! I keep losing at chess without even playing!
Oh well, it could be worse: I could be playing chess 🤷
No this is the Pinnacle of humor. Nothing could possibly be funnier than this…
What about, hear me out here, what about if a man, like an old man, and not just any old man, a scientist, a old man scientist in a labcoat, what about, wait for it, what about if he were to, hold on, if he were to, here it comes, turn himself into a pickle?! Funniest shit I’ve ever seen.
I call them Meat Bees, but they are a species of Yellowjacket -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellowjacket?wprov=sfti1
You never had bee steak? You’ve been missing out!
with B-2 steak sauce
Yes, that is the subversion of expectations that makes this a joke.
Some people are so allergic that they need different cooking stations to prepare their food and this also tells the person preparing to wear different gloves
Yeah, bee allergies are serious
Bingo. My coworker needed this almost everywhere that served baked goods because she had a serious cinnamon allergy. Depending on what was being made, it could be bad enough that just the scent of something baking that contained a decent amount of cinnamon, like pies, would be enough to need a couple Benadryl.
That is a rare allergy!
Also sounds non fatal, so not the kind of thing they worry about on packaging.
Presumably you do need to tell them “no nuts because I’m allergic”.
And then they bring you steak with bees because the server’s new and she doesn’t quite understand the kitchen shorthand yet.
Hate when that happens.
Restaurants want people to always tell their server if they have any allergies regardless if it’s in the thing is they are ordering. Not all menu items may list every single ingredient in the description and people have some uncommon allergies. Garlic is ubiquitous and it might in your salad dressing. Tell your server if you are allergic. Plus, cross contamination is a thing and chefs need to know to be mindful. Did nuts come anywhere near that salad? Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen.
Always say something just to be safe.
I don’t know, as someone with a nut allergy I don’t get why this is supposed to be funny. This is just my everyday life. Especially salad often has nuts like walnuts or almonds as decoration so it’s one of the foods where I have to be extra careful. Just like I always have to follow a coffee order with “no nuts, please”, because coffee is often decorated with almonds. The tweet makes it sound like asking for no nuts on a salad is as outlandish as thinking there might be a bee in the steak, but walnuts, cashews or almonds are pretty common decorations on salads.
Ever since I ordered a 7-cheese macaroni and cheese side dish that lovingly named each cheese and didn’t mention it had chunks of bacon mixed in, I ask to be sure.
Fuck you, Applebee’s.
I dont think its really making fun of anyone, its just some semi-grounded absurdity.
The joke can be read as in the pointe being the stupidity of the second person for exactly the reason you gave.
I think people with food allergies should not go to restaurants ever. Your health & life are at stake, and you are inconveniencing everyone including yourself. Just prepare food yourself at home. I have no allergies and I don’t even go to restaurants. Restaurants are excessive & unnecessary luxuries for everyone.
What a sanctimonious, self righteous asshole.
"I don’t have allergies and even I don’t go to restaurants, so people with allergies don’t deserve to experience normal human life because it’s inconvenient for other people. "
Get off your highly horse and get fucked by it, buddy.
Why are these kinds of comments always a confession?
what kind of crazy person decorates a coffee with nuts?!
also side note: it should be illegal to put known allergens in anything without mentioning it…
If you’re not gluten-intolerant, you’ll be surprised to know how many things they put flour into. It’s so ubiquitous to the human diet you can find it in virtually everything across all kinds of cuisine.
This scenario was basically my life’s story and I had to do this every time I went to restaurant back then. Thankfully I’m no longer gluten-sensitive.
P.S. Even factory-made plain potato chips aren’t safe. (Check the labels very carefully!)
I don’t know how things are in different parts of the US/world, but I have so little confidence in food workers now that if I had a food allergy, I’d never eat at restaurants again.
How do I get a drink with no ice in it? Every time I say “no ice”, I get ice. I even tried asking for no ice, the drink, no ice, in a glass with no ice, and STILL GOT ICE WITH IT.
Adding ice is just filling your cup with 60% water. Filling the same cup with the same drink and no ice would be less profitable because you’d wait longer to order another.
Except I get water. I just want water, with no ice
My wife has the same problem, something we do if we havent been to a place before (our regular places are goos about no ice) she will order “water no ice” and Ill get something that is not water. If her water comes with ice she tell the server “sorry I asked for not ice”, Ill chime in with “Ill take this glass then” and smile at the server. Next glass is always no ice and the server doesnt feel like they wasted effort because the water they did bring is going to be drunk.

You probably said “ice” so many times that they couldn’t stop thinking about ice.
As an analogy, if I tell you not to think about an elephant, what’s the first thing you think about?
I’m allergic to banana boat sunscreen, I should tell waiters not to put it in my food
You forgot to include nuclear waste and finger nails. Rookie mistake.
