Well put , while i agree it does look bad (and it does, I am guilty of it i'll admit) most meals I do not get to finish. And when we have made 3 attempts to get there and get a run to another location. That was also explained to me by some of the managers of those places why they try to give discounts when they can, because they see us throw away our food on the way out the door. ( that we just spent money on) Not looking for sympathy, I'm agreeing with you
