I guess since you are diabetic you consider yourself above simple public etiquette?

I managed to teach my child that “all you can eat buffets” have a few simple rules of expected conduct:
1.If you don't know you will eat it, don't put more than a small spoon full to taste on your plate.
2.You can always go back for more, but it is rude and unacceptable to waste food by taking more from a buffet than you will eat.
3.You are a thief if you attempt to take any food you did not consume at the restaurant home with you, from a buffet.

I know many people who are diabetics.
They are just as capable of polite consumption at “all you can eat buffets” as everyone else.
Your particular critical need to pay very strict attention to your food intake does not exempt you from any of the above rules of polite consumption.
Sushi served at restaurant buffets invariably consist of minute portions of fish, wrapped in large portions of rice.
Perhaps you should refrain from buffets altogether, or simply select those items on the buffet line that completely conform to your special diet needs. Most restaurants that offer buffets also offer menu selections for people who, for whatever reason, choose not to partake of the buffet. Your special dietal needs do not exempt you from ordinary polite public conduct.

And I do follow them. Sushi served at restaurant buffets invariably consist of minute portions of fish, wrapped in large portions of rice.That is correct

Perhaps you should refrain from buffets altogether, or simply select those items on the buffet line that completely conform to your special diet needs.So now I should be restricted from eating where I like, did n't the civil rights act prohibit laws like you want to make?

Most restaurants that offer buffets also offer menu selections for people who, for whatever reason, choose not to partake of the buffet.But i choose to partake of the buffet. Your special dietal needs do not exempt you from ordinary polite public conduct.And your liberal views don't mean that I answer to you. I never said or implied that I or an other diabetic is exempt, but we D@MN well should not be prohibited from enjoying a good meal from time to time where and when we choose to.
