[quote=Anonymous]Everything is family style or buffet style?

Generally I don't care too much what other people eat, but I have been in a lot of situations where omnivores take some of everything and then there's very little left for the vegetarians who weren't near the front of the line. "Sorry the tofu curry is gone, but there's plenty of plain rice" happens a lot.

I also know some people who don't eat pork for religious reasons who feel uncomfortable eating food that was packed together with pork food.

So it feels more inclusive, when possible, to choose most foods that most people can eat.

My office is about half vegetarian, so we might do a meal of Indian food where almost everything is vegetarian but they'll have one or two dishes like lamb biryani and butter chicken off to the side. Or if there's Italian, it might be mostly pastas and eggplant parmesan but there is a relatively small container of meatballs on the side. Pizza we just get all vegetarian because the pepperoni never got eaten.[/quote]
