Whose fault?

A problem of food wastage... whose fault is it?

Lets say, there is a child who don't like to eat veggies. When he doesn't eat the veggies in his meal, whose fault is it? 'The child's fault!', you say?

You are wrong!

1st party at fault: The cook.

If a person doesn't like to eat veggies, it is because the food tastes bad. Why does it taste bad? Because the cook isn't able to deliver a dish that is of the consumer's taste. The cook sux.

A good cook will be able to cook any ingredient and make it delicious! (assuming the ingredients are edible in the 1st place, duh) A good cook also knows how to make full use of his ingredients. Feeding his recipe to a child who will throw away the food =/= good use of ingredient.


2nd party at fault: Parents, or whoever brought that kid up.


When kids don't eat a particular food, the parents blame them for being picky. Don't waste food!

In actuality, the parents are the ones wasting food. They totally know that the child hates the food. Why deliberately pick a food that the child hates and not other alternatives? There are so much types of food in this world.

2nd. Why does the kid hate the food? It's because the parents didn't give him/her the food that tastes good. For example, i love cabbage. But in actuality, most cai fan cabbage doesn't taste that good ;_; . The reason i still like cabbage is because the cabbage i have eaten the 1st time actually tastes good.

Which is to say, they are force feeding kids to hide the fact that they are incompetent in choosing food, or cooking them.

3rd party at fault: The restaurant/menu.


When you order western food, do you order the chicken chop for the chicken or for the salad? The chicken, for obvious reasons.

In short, if i order chicken chop and don't eat the salad, its not because i like wasting food. I didn't order it in the 1st place. So why did you serve me salad?! The menu is inflexible and the restaurant is in the wrong for setting the menu.

Of course you can say that i know salad is inside so why don't i switch it for beans? I still blame the restaurant. Because:
1. The menu didn't write the option of changing. (just look at KFC menu, they write we can switch mash potatoes for cheese fries... if we pay more)
2. For extensive customer service you could have asked.
3. I don't like any of the veggies so theres no dif. Menu is limited.
4. If i choose to remove the salad the price won't go down... I'm lazy to ask. Restaurant failure for not considering the customer's point of view.
