where is the hypocrisy?
i personally try my best to avoid wasting any real food, especially groceries and food i make at home. but i wont eat up everything on my plate at restaurants, or brownbag it just because it is there even after i am full.
at restaurants in india, there is no point leaving food on the plate when you leave. it will show up as "fresh" food for the next guy who walks in.
Thats why in desi restaurants I always pour raita over my leftovers when I am done
What makes you think that they will recycle it as karhee as in dahi aur baysan key karhee. 
yeh kisi aur ka kaam aa sakta tha khaana :no:
how do u know that your leftovers are not someone else’s salvaged leftovers> :aq:
Re: Do you ask for doggie bags ?
trust me, i make a big mess
often time, it is soda as well!
I only do this in desi/Asian restuarants
I once ate from an indian restaurant in Datchet , near london and could swear on my teddy bear that I felt the chicken pieces looked two different colours although they were in the same dish ! A scary thought …
a friend used to make a mess in her plate on the left over food and we used to abuse the micky out of her giving her the save the food lecture … I am now thinking she knew what goes on in these restaurants :no:
I think the term doggi bag is obsolete atleast in U.S. Everyone just ask for to go bag or a box for leftovers.
That is disgusting.
Well at least you are swearing on your teddy bear!!! 
- so even if you are wrong - it’s the teddy bear that goes - SMART!
Re: Do you ask for doggie bags ?
maybe it was a rather motley chicken to begin with...
