  I went to lunch with a coworker today at the Godfather's Lunch Buffet. There was a lady eating by herself at the table next to us. When she left, my coworker said, "She ate a lot. Look how many plates she had! " She did have about six or seven plates. I replied, "Maybe she just doesn't like her food to touch. " She looked at me like I'm crazy. I told her that I don't really like my food to touch, and she said she's never heard of it before. That's crazy talk! Correlle makes partition plates for grown-ups! Lots of people don't like their food to touch. It's NOT unusual! Well, maybe it's unusual, but it's not uncommon! Who's with me on this one?
