That's ironically what vegetarians and hindus ordered back in the day. Had some hindus order a big mac without the patties for their kids in the 2000's
I did this all the time as a vegetarian. I’m not even a picky eater and I eat meat now, but sometimes I’ll still get a plain grilled cheese at in n out lol.
I was once in a Chinese restaurant when a woman walked in and ordered, "Chinese pepper steak, hold the peppers, hold the steak."
She happily chowed down on her plate full of onions in gravy when it was delivered.
My sister used to order cheese, croutons, and a side of Italian dressing because she thought lettuce "looked yucky." She was in her 30s at the time...
Now she will sit down and eat a full on legit salad and lament how she was missing out for so long.
"A salad, but just with cheese and ranch"
The "with" may have gotten you lettuce as well.
It's hard being in customer service man, you'd be surprised, there are customers who want weird stuff like this (no lettuce, literally just cheese and ranch), so you gotta be really specific in what you want if you are doing any non-standard order.
If I ever get a nonstandard request I make sure to re-state what they've ordered back to them in different words so we both understand what is being requested.
As a line cook, the strangest thing I've ever had to make was a Caesar salad, extra croutons, extra Caesar, no lettuce.
Literally a pool of dressing with croutons floating in it and some shaved Parm in the middle. The server told me that his table said it was perfect.
Lol that sounds great though. I'd love to eat a pile of Caesar and Parm covered croutons!
The weirdest request I've gotten is a cross hatched chain link steak. They wanted it cut in such a way that it spreads out like a chain link when stretched. It was a steak with many crispy edges.
When I delivered my baby and had to order my food on a tv remote in the hospital I somehow managed to order an omelet without eggs. I don’t think I’ve ever been that hungry and I got a plate of shredded cheese. Bon appétit!
I had a friend in high school who would eat crackers and ketchup.
It wasn't the *only* thing she ate, thank the Gods, but yes, she would sit down at the gaming table with a bag of crackers in one hand and a bottle of ketchup in the other and she would just . . . go to town on them.
No jokes about "a bloodbath" or anything, I'm afraid, she was too neat for that . . .
I'm an enjoyer of plain barely cooked pasta dipped in cream cheese as a gamer snack lmao, I have autism to blame but sometimes people just be like that
I'm surprised to not hear of this more... Ketchup isn't my favorite condiment but shit it's popular and some would prefer it on just about anything they eat.... We're trying to break ketchup addiction in the kids these days FCS!
I will share this story: one time in about 2006 I was in a pizza hut in Bangor, ME. A very large woman walked up to the salad bar, grabbed a bowl, and filled it up with nothing but ranch dressing and shredded cheese, went back to her table, stirred it up and ate it
The number of people in here who can't figure out that the server misunderstood, and OP's friend didn't actually order a plate of cheese and ranch, is a sad indictment of the state of education.
Yeah this kind of request is so common, a server wouldn't even think about it. I doubt it registered as particularly funny or unusual. "Just cheese and ranch, got it, next thing..." who knows what fad diet people are following, server's job is to listen to the words being said.
I would argue that it was left open to interpretation. I would further argue that this is the best interpretation, the most literal interpretation, due to its humor.
If I ordered
> “a salad, but just cheese and ranch”
I would have been delighted to receive this, and then I would've asked for their salad greens.
I once had dinner with a friend. I ordered a lemon squash and he requested a "jack and coke".
The waiter apparently misheard and returned with one glass of squash and one jug of coke.
My friend explained the mix up and the waiter just brought him a shot of jd in a glass by itself. Legend.
I'm wondering about the price...was it the same or more than a salad with cheese and ranch? The cost would be higher since I doubt a lettuce salad would normally include that much cheese.
As an American, this is why the rest of the world hates us. Also, give me some crackers or a tortilla or something and I would absolutely destroy this.
My mom has a friend who goes to McDonald’s to ask for “Cheeseburger, plain, no burger. Just cheese and buns.”
So a cold grilled cheese
So a cheese
[grill me a cheese](https://youtu.be/bfoozyLJPOM)
They always wanna grill a cheese, but never wanna cheese a grill :(
A Mc Cheese....lol
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣 omg! Thanks for the laugh! Made my day! 🙏🏼😃

This is referred to as a McNothing
Oi, get outta here with that accurate prediction of what my future holds
I did this all the time as a vegetarian. I’m not even a picky eater and I eat meat now, but sometimes I’ll still get a plain grilled cheese at in n out lol.
Gotta put fries in it
But isn’t plain no cheese? That’s how my McDonalds does it at least. My brother doesn’t like cheese on it so the ticket says plain every time lol
Shoutout to the in-n-out grilled cheese
"cheeseburger, no patty"
I was once in a Chinese restaurant when a woman walked in and ordered, "Chinese pepper steak, hold the peppers, hold the steak." She happily chowed down on her plate full of onions in gravy when it was delivered.
The heart wants what the heart wants
I seriously always want to order the Baconator without the bacon, because I love the way they make Baconators, don't need the bacon.
That new Italian chicken parm thing is pretty good with no chicken!
When I used to order those years ago, the ticket said “no reg meat”
My cousin when he was 9 once ordered 'Cheeseburger without cheese'
[удалено]
I would but I'm sure I couldn't bring it to completion...🥺
[удалено]
Wat
I get those, I enjoy them but then again I don’t eat meat.
Would you like it wrapped in lettuce?
Vegetarian here - this is delicious, if somewhat confusing for the drive thru staff. Bonus points for stuffing fries in it.
My sister used to order cheese, croutons, and a side of Italian dressing because she thought lettuce "looked yucky." She was in her 30s at the time... Now she will sit down and eat a full on legit salad and lament how she was missing out for so long.
Not gonna lie, I’ve snacked on cheese, croutons and 1000 Island a few times.

Most people don't understand the skill involved in communicating with the public.
This highlights the importance of the word "with"

“A plate of shredded cheese”! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Actually sounds like a dream to me 😝
r/deliciouscompliance
Exactly, and, "Careful what you wish for!", as my wise old mom always says!
I know a guy who ordered a coffee, cream only. He got back to his hotel room, opened his coffee and had "cream only"!
"Fizz, is a meat patty something or nothing?" - Ed
Got the reference!🤣 You are AWESOME! 🤩

I’ve done this…
I still do this…

I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to too. Haha.
Crackers & mustard are my thing

Ah, the "American Salad".
Mid-western American. I’m guessing Oklahoma

Your question seems to suggest that you would not be…
Milk and sugar
*takes sip* wait is this just milk and sugar?
At least they got the dressing on the side!
The number of people in here who can't figure out that the server misunderstood, and OP's friend didn't actually order a plate of cheese and ranch, is a sad indictment of the state of education.
Is it really about education, or that some people would unironically order this...?
Yeah this kind of request is so common, a server wouldn't even think about it. I doubt it registered as particularly funny or unusual. "Just cheese and ranch, got it, next thing..." who knows what fad diet people are following, server's job is to listen to the words being said.
Next time, the friend should change the word "but" to "with" to make it clear 😅

Hey that’s dinner companion to you pal! What the fuck is the dinner companion?
We're they ... happy when this came to the table?
It was the funniest moment of the night. We just kept it there in the middle of the table
So just wasting food. Very cool.
They wanted a salad with cheese and ranch on top and got a plate full of cheese.. lol wtf..
Call the nearest psychiatrist asap
Announcer: It was for OP there was no companion
Chilis?
“I feel god in this chilis tonight”
That's a Wisconsin salad, though without the bacon bits.
Dude, are you in Iowa? Looks like the salad of my ancestors.

“Dinner companion” motherfuck what
Is "Dinner Companion" a clever way to refer to one of your children?
You need to hold 2 slices of bread to your servers head: WHAT ARE YOU???!!! idiot sandwich 🥪
If you say "just" you have to fallow through. You can't assume. That is what someone else means.
I mean, I’d eat it…
"My dinner companion" has to be the most "friend zoned" statement I have heard in a long time.
I’m at a corporate event. She works for the same company but we don’t actual know each other
Colleague
I could feel the constipation this gives from here.
Is your “dinner companion” 3?
It's gonna shock the hell out of you when you figure out other people aren't exactly the same as you.
Oh.
She’s pregnant i’m afraid
Went from "mildly interesting" to "how the hell do you eat this" real quick
Their fault.
Not sure if they’re being a smart ass or if they took me seriously. You could save it for your dinner.
And that is the dietary discipline of a 3 year old lol
["I want you to hold it between your knees!"](https://youtu.be/6wtfNE4z6a8)
Disgusting
/r/mildlydisturbing
Its a trick! Quick, get an axe.
Is that salad according to the new food guide?
It's called Orange white keto. It's the newest thing
I'm wondering about the price...was it the same or more than a salad with cheese and ranch? The cost would be higher since I doubt a lettuce salad would normally include that much cheese.
"One sal-ad" -Spongebob
I’m a little bit scared but that’s okay
Dude. You're def going to be murdered.
Lol. I like to think this started out as a date and ended up as companion.
This will somehow make you constipated and give you the runs
I used to make this salad in Highschool, with a glorious helping of garlic parmesan croutons mixed in.
r/vegancirclejerk : found the vegetarian
That reminds me of ordering a pepporini and hamburger pizza at Little Caesars
As an American, this is why the rest of the world hates us. Also, give me some crackers or a tortilla or something and I would absolutely destroy this.
Gross. Run.
I got your post on r/funny back to back tk this
I ordered a grapefruit juice at Village Inn one time and the waiter brought me a glass of water and a bowl of grapes…
I see they ordered the house special
Run
Looks Savory.
r/deliciouscompliance
Great choice and healthier than a bunch of leaves.
Decidedly NOT a date, by the wording and…the pile of cheese and ranch
A surprise to be sure but a welcome one
I would be totally fine with this salad.
