Inaccurate Video About Restaurant Bread Service Going Viral

[@BehindtheStickMedia]

Editor's note: In France and Italy, sometimes bread is given before food is ordered, or in the beginning of the meal. However, in either case, the bread is meant to accompany the food (to soak up the sauce) and not meant to be eaten by itself (with the exception of items such as oysters). It may be considered a faux pas to eat bread by itself, and guests who do so may be perceived as impatient, or as a tourist who isn't familiar with local customs.

You are 100% correct. She sounds dumb. It sounds like her opinions based on 1 business. Love your channel. Long time sub

This lady is bleeding "ulterior motive" vibes, specifically relating to doing/saying ANYTHING to get people to eat more veggies/fiber. Just my speculation, but I wouldn't be surprised to find out she's a vegan, vegetarian, "naturalist", crunchy mom, and/or sells supplements, something along those lines.

My favorite restaurant here in Prague doesn't even have bread. You order drinks, then they ask if you would like an empanada, which they continually have ready to bring out instead of bread. You then order your food when the drinks and empanadas come out and after you have had you main a while and when they come back to refill or ask if you would like more drinks then ask if you would like to order dessert. My other favorite restaurant brings out the menu and asks for drink orders and if there is a preference for non gleuten bread, then around the same time drinks arrive they bring out a mini loaf of hot bread in a pan as if it is fresh from the oven and assortment of butters. At that time you order your food. Same as the other restaurant when they come back to see if you would like more drinks they ask about dessert.

The bread or chips is cheap and easy. Then they can charger more for the entree with a slightly smaller portion and increase the profits with you still leaving full and satisfied. It is to increase profits but how could eating anything make you more hungry. Ya you’re right Alan.

I thought Mexican restaurants give you chips and salsa because it makes you thirsty so you would order more drinks. While I don't like being coerced, in this case I'll make an exception.

Mexican restaurants make bank on people ordering daiquiri and margaritas, bottles of beer big time

Do you fill up on bread when you go out to dinner?

[@vixenpeon]

My husband does but he's got a very high metabolism. Myself I enjoy yeast rolls with whipped butter

Well I will say this there’s a Mexican restaurant in my city where as soon as you sit down at the table they bring out the chips and salsa and maybe that’s why I get full before I finish my entree 😂. But every restaurant is different and it does make sense to bring out the bread or chips after you order.

[@Chundyer]

The do the same here. They don't bring more chips and salsa out unless you ask either. They do have a card on the table with the desert options and they ask if you want desert after the meal.

I can't finish my meal if i eat the bread/chips: so i take my stuff home and now ive got lunch tomorrow

The only time I’ve ever gotten bread or chips before ordering food is if I ordered drinks that weren’t water. I don’t know what rock this lady lives under or what sales pitch she’s trying to make, but bread makes you feel full (which is why unfiltered beer makes you feel full), bread does contain some fiber, and if you get salsa that’s chunky (like pico de gallo) it also contains fiber. Essentially, this person’s video is BS and it feels like people don’t actually pay attention in restaurants or how their body feels while having a restaurant experience. Anywho, thank you for your content and videos! 😊

Thanks for watching!

There’s been few places in Alabama they actually do give you bread and chips before I ate or ordered anything but I don’t believe it’s nothing to do with what she’s saying cause honestly I can get full faster and order probably less then I would have
