My old manager used to take his team out to a Szechuan Chinese place and order for us, family style. It was awesome.

I'm white AF and it was the first time I had actually spicy Chinese food. He'd also order a few mild dishes for the pair of no-spice folk on the team.

Thinking back, manager was a Chinese immigrant, most team mates were Indian immigrants, and the spice-free teammates were both white. (I mention immigrant because my Indian teammates with kids would complain about their American-born kids' low spice tolerance.)

Lmao speaking of immigrants complaining of how their kids like to eat, I have a Russian coworker who complains about how her kids only want to eat unhealthy American food and not the food she cooks.

Maybe she's just a shite cook

Nope, kids like garbage. Probably designed the food to be addictive. Better off banning American processed food.
