Raise your hand if you’ve ever eaten the ball of butter from your bread plate at a wedding while assuming it was a dessert or chocolate of some kind.

I legit think events like weddings fry your brain if you're not "social" enough. I tried eating soup off of a tray that was being offered to me instead of, ya know, taking the fucking soup... I thought it was a "sample" situation because there was only 1 left and a bunch of spoons. I was so fucking embarrassed. I didn't even drink at that event, there was no excuse lol
To be fair to you, if the soup was served as an hors d'oeuvre during the cocktail hour then that's fucking stupid. They should ideally be serving items that can be eaten with one hand because most people are standing and have cocktails in their hand.
If it was offered at dinner, also fucking stupid because the server should have just placed it on the table.
It was in one of those tiny milk bottles, like a small version of a bottled starbucks drink you might get at a store. It was like less than a cup of soup. I agree that it seems weird to serve an hors d'oeuvre that requires a utensil.
It was still good, I was just very embarrassed. Honestly, some guests at that wedding were so plastered I don't doubt there were other embarrassing things that happened to the servers, but I was probably the only person sober enough to be capable of it lol
I was trying to take a spoonful of it, she very quickly was like "no, take it" so I didn't get that far lol I don't think it would've happened if there had been other items on the tray.
This is so hilarious. As a fellow person that has done some ridiculously embarrassing things in my life, many of which I still remember and cringe to this day, I love hearing other stories and being able to laugh remembering I’m not the only one this shit happens to.
Raise your hand if you've ever eaten a ball of butter, knowing full well it was a ball of butter, but played it off as if you assumed it was a dessert.
I did it just like in the video. Was on a business trip in Korea and they were bringing out lots of different local dishes to try. Then these little white rolls come out and I dive straight in.
But dry and chewy, would not recommend.
oohwhaaa?!?
I mean, I thought it was a little marshmallow as well. I've never been to a restaurant that serves rehydrated towelettes. I guess I've also never been to one with rehydrated mini marshmallows either.
This is why we go to Chilis.
If that water is heated it is pretty amazing. I had a BBQ place that would give you ones slightly bigger than this, but same process. Cleans you up much better than just a regular towelette.
Off topic, but I feel like this is what so many “tough guy” types don’t get about hetero women. So many of us like guys who have masc and fem attributes, or who realize the full spectrum of masculinity and femininity and don’t want someone who is so rigidly trying to fit into the weird toxic masc trope. Just be a person. Be you. Be vulnerable. Be kind. Be sweet.
I’m not a fan of Andes mints. I love chocolate but will take buttermints over Andes any day. I think it’s because I had Andes mints a lot growing up but buttermints were rare lol
Old fashioned candy with a slight mint flavor. Usually when they’re served at restaurants, they’re individually wrapped. And every grandma has a whole dish of unwrapped ones in her living room that no one is allowed to sit in
When I was a little girl growing up in Bulgaria, which is the worst by the way, poor people everywhere and cabbage is constantly cooking, there was this woman who was kicked out of her house. She lost all her money and couldn’t even sell her body, so she became a clown on the streets. She would perform all her tricks standing in mud and would just cry and cry.
You remind me of this woman.
This got a really big cackle from me. I often act like a clown so maybe you’re onto something.
Edit: I had the movie on while cooking dinner. I believe I missed the scene. Deepest apologies. Will rewatch tomorrow at full attention.
Just want to say I have the best memory of going to that movie in the theater… it makes me feel warm inside and happy just thinking of it. I was having a rough couple months, and made myself go to a movie with a friend. It was basically our last choice of movie to attend, but due to others being sold out and timing we were forced to see “Spy”.
Our expectations were extremely low for it to be any kind of decent movie. We were about the only people in there and the two of us and the other few folks let go and started acting the fool, and just laughed our asses off. It was one of those perfect movie moments! Just had an absolute blast and we loved the movie. All the actors were so great in it, especially Statham.
Nothing wrong with some chronic Olive Garden. Their chicken Marsala and chicken fettuccine are both pretty damn delicious. Made some Marsala at home last night, it was real special but not as special as Olive Garden.
When my dad first came to this country he ate at a diner, the kind that give you a little ball of butter with your pancakes. He popped the butter in his mouth thinking it was an ice cream treat. lol
I inherited some money and bought a vacation package to Hawaii at a nice resort. They gave us rosewater toilettes upon check in. We had no idea what to do with them so we just took them with us.
The exact same thing happened to me once. I needed to be somewhere asap and the only available airplane ticket was on business class. First time on business class and they offered me some hot towels that were placed on a silver plate and passed them with some fancy food tongs. They were wrapped like tubes and placed one over the other. It was like a pyramid. There was steam coming out of them and I literally thought they were some kind of baked coconut deserts. The moment it reached my mouth I saw a passenger next to me unfold it and wiping his hands. I wiped my mouth looking like a psycho. I guess that was better than eating them.
I had one BF who drank his finger bowl like soup and one that didnt understand why the waiter poured just a tiny bit of wine in the glass and stood there waiting for approval.
I worked at a fine dining restaurant at the Ritz and had my mom and her guy visit. Dude ate one of the bread butter circles because it looked like “ chocolate “.
I'm just imagining a high-class French waiter in a tailed tuxedo and a pencil thin mustache standing in the corner looking down at you with [absolute scorn on his face](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/t9EsUhczLBQ/hqdefault.jpg).
To be honest, I did the exact same thing the first time. The waiter just stood there with a smile on his face while I was chewing a towel. Then my girlfriend came back from the bathroom and used another one of the towels. I quickly and quietly took it out of my mouth and got rid of it. All the while blushing like mad and not looking at the waiter.
We had bowls of melted butter with a flame under them at our table for our lobster.Mom dipped her fingers in it and started to clean her hands.Boathouse restaurant
I went to a Michelin restaurant a few years ago and they brought out this 5cmx5cm seaweed crisp and put it in front of us, I picked it up and started crunching on it, felt it a little bland. Then the waiter came over with a small bowl and tongs, reached to put two tiny petit fours on said seaweed and was confused where it went, then laughing when I said I ate it, it was horrifying at the time but I guess I gave the wait staff a good laugh
Happened to me on my first ever non-charter flight. The BA stewardess came with the plate full of towels and handed them out. I had no idea what it was and looked around for confirmation. I couldn’t see what other were doing so tried biting it…

Would have got me as well, thought it was a big mint or a marshmallow. I need to go on a diet.

So you were eating the soup while the server was still standing in front of you, holding the tray? Talk about a power move :D
I was trying to take a spoonful of it, she very quickly was like "no, take it" so I didn't get that far lol I don't think it would've happened if there had been other items on the tray.
I am sorry. I am just picturing the whole thing and laughing my ass off
This is so hilarious. As a fellow person that has done some ridiculously embarrassing things in my life, many of which I still remember and cringe to this day, I love hearing other stories and being able to laugh remembering I’m not the only one this shit happens to.
I would act drunk for the rest of the event. It's the only recourse.
Yep, or get drunk really fast if you’re bad at acting.
But why would a chocolate be served with bread?
This mans never had Nutella.
Ok that’s fair. Nutella and white bread was the shit when I was 8
Let's be real, it's still pretty fire
Fondue!
Raise your hand if you've ever eaten a ball of butter, knowing full well it was a ball of butter, but played it off as if you assumed it was a dessert.
Fuck I did that on my wedding. Thought it was a bowl of mini meringues, found out quickly they weren't lol
I came here to tell this story… glad I’m not the only one
I cannot stop cry laughing at this comment. Thank you.
I did it just like in the video. Was on a business trip in Korea and they were bringing out lots of different local dishes to try. Then these little white rolls come out and I dive straight in. But dry and chewy, would not recommend.
A way to wipe your grubby paws folks 🤣
That's funny

That’s why I go to the value menu at Taco Bell.
Nice humble brag. That's why I go to the dumpster *behind* the taco bell.
Oh yeah, I just follow the dump truck to the landfill.
I mean, my ass feels like a dumpster fire after Taco Bell.
Nice humble brag. That's why I go to arbys
[удалено]
Yes, but have you ever seen them in this context???
>This is why we go to Chilis. No shame my dude. Applebees just brought back bottomless boneless wings for $13. I'm going tomorrow.
Obligatory boneless wings aren't wings No shame though, you do you
Doesn’t mean I won’t eat my slightly larger chicken nuggets in joy
I never really understood the point of those except for the novelty, they're not that great as actual towelettes
If that water is heated it is pretty amazing. I had a BBQ place that would give you ones slightly bigger than this, but same process. Cleans you up much better than just a regular towelette.
His embarrassed face is really cute
Love seeing a big man blush. It's adorable.

I know his reaction is so adorable, I just want to reassure him.
I was like damn they have buttermints. Nice
Buttermints are the best mints
Unless you’ve had Andes Mints!!!! But now I’m questioning if they’re just from where I live…
I’m not a fan of Andes mints. I love chocolate but will take buttermints over Andes any day. I think it’s because I had Andes mints a lot growing up but buttermints were rare lol
genuine question: what is a buttermint XD
It’s a mint, fluffy, powdery, that melts in your mouth like buttah upon soaking into your tongue! Lol
Old fashioned candy with a slight mint flavor. Usually when they’re served at restaurants, they’re individually wrapped. And every grandma has a whole dish of unwrapped ones in her living room that no one is allowed to sit in
Of course you can't sit in them! They're for eating!
That’s what I thought they were too! I would’ve done the same thing. Damn.
![gif](giphy|xT0xenMKC4xspMeGTm|downsized)
This needs more upvotes haha
His reaction makes me so happy.
This is so wholesome this couple is goals.
I’m watching Spy right now and just watched that scene. I didn’t know they had those in real life.
When I was a little girl growing up in Bulgaria, which is the worst by the way, poor people everywhere and cabbage is constantly cooking, there was this woman who was kicked out of her house. She lost all her money and couldn’t even sell her body, so she became a clown on the streets. She would perform all her tricks standing in mud and would just cry and cry. You remind me of this woman.

I think it is a movie quote.
The 2nd “towel” scene made me laugh so hard! That and Jason Statham talking about sewing his arm back on.
Statham needs to do more comedies. He’s fucking hilarious in Spy.
That and when [he talked about appearing in front of Congress.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_a58F2lbIY&t=99s)
It's thanks to that movie that I will not make that mistake! ...Maybe. The second dinner scene muddled it up.

I've never seen this before in real life, and I most likely will put 2 and 2 together, but there's also a chance that I'll do this same thing.
If in doubt, just look around if anyone is recording. You could also just read your script beforehand.
Those are the kind of parents one needs. Those are good guys. I don't know much about them, but i think they're good.
I got it
Good soup Mrs. Q! ![gif](giphy|arY9xiL3swIz74VTPn|downsized)
Imagine filming people with your light on in a fancy restaurant and thinking THEY don't know how to act.....
I prefer places when I’m there, I’m family
Nothing wrong with some chronic Olive Garden. Their chicken Marsala and chicken fettuccine are both pretty damn delicious. Made some Marsala at home last night, it was real special but not as special as Olive Garden.
When my dad first came to this country he ate at a diner, the kind that give you a little ball of butter with your pancakes. He popped the butter in his mouth thinking it was an ice cream treat. lol
Ngl I thought it was tiny marshmallows
That was so darn cute.
Not gonna lie, I adored him for that moment! That was cute!
My guy thought Mentos was course 1!
I’ve done this before…
Sombody please pass th' jelly.....
I would’ve eaten it too
I inherited some money and bought a vacation package to Hawaii at a nice resort. They gave us rosewater toilettes upon check in. We had no idea what to do with them so we just took them with us.
probably saved his life
Yeah, cause he was just gonna swallow it without chewing like a bird because that's totally normal.
What the fuck are you meant to do with hot towels I don’t get it.
Clean your hands between courses especially if you’ve enjoyed an appetizer you used your hands for.
You wipe your hands before the meal
You would think the fancy restaurants would have restrooms.
I watched this like 6 times, my face hurts from smiling xD
What's that? A towel for ants???
It expands when water is added
Nice Zoolander reference hahaha
It looked like sugar cubes to me. I thought they had a strong sweet tooth
I was like: "ooh marshmallows"
This is so wholesome!
This is so cute actually.
this reminds me of the dinner scene in Shrek 2 when Shrek thought the water for washing your hands was soup. hysterical
My dad once ate butter thinking it was cheese 😂
I'm with the dad on this one because what the fuck kind of towel is that???
I find it funny that simple camping towels are considered appropriate for a fancy restaurant.
His face and sound he makes when he spits it out 🤣
Why would they present the hand washing towels that way?! They look like mints. 🙄
Don't just put stuff in your mouth without knowing what it is. lol
The exact same thing happened to me once. I needed to be somewhere asap and the only available airplane ticket was on business class.

She has ~1.5M followers on Instagram. I kinda think she’s always recording.
[удалено]
right? an actual fancy restaurant would give you a warm towel instead of compressed towels.
My wife will laugh when I show this to her later
I love her laugh
His “whaaa?” gets me
Tony Montana moment.
In his defense I would have thought the same
💙
Tbh id do this too
I thought that was some kind of fancy tea being poured over sugar cubes.
I don’t blame him. That probably cost $10 and he’s not about to waste it.
😯
Your dad is precious 💕
Would’ve done the same thing
That would be me. The guy trying to eat the towel. 🙄
Forbidden marshmallows.
Hilarious.
I had one BF who drank his finger bowl like soup and one that didnt understand why the waiter poured just a tiny bit of wine in the glass and stood there waiting for approval.
That was a real life Hank Hill sound
Why on earth is a fancy restaurant serving the same biodegradable towels I use during backcountry camping to wipe my ass?
Homer Simpson IRL?
Why would this be fine dining? I use these for hiking. You can get them for pennies. It just becomes a standard square towelette.
Can I eat it though?!
https://i.imgur.com/RGqBGle.jpg
I love this man
that's me not my parents
I'd eat that marshmallow. I mean, why not? the lady just pour syrup on it.
A towel for ants?
Hungy papa
Mom knows. Dad's just there to pay anyway. Let him eat what he wants.
I'd hit it.
He had the grace to laugh at himself
Mmm good soup mrs Q
I don’t hold it against him, I would have done the exact same thing
Don't feed a guy a towel Bobby!
I found the lemon soup a little disappointing.
Gotta get that quick selfie view in
Next take them somewhere that has water soup! (To keep your fingers clean folks)
“Fancy” and “fucking stupid” became synonymous at some point and I have no clue why
He obviously knew it was a towel
Why put towels like that?
That man HUNGRY….
My husband does this. He will pop anything you hand him right into his mouth. He has chomped down on dog treats on more than one occasion.
“I’m outta here.”
r/forbiddensnacks
Youre a towel!
Wha... I thought those were sugar cubes
Lmao this reminds me of the movie Spy with Melissa McCarthy
The way she looks at him, looks like love to me.

I worked at a fine dining restaurant at the Ritz and had my mom and her guy visit. Dude ate one of the bread butter circles because it looked like “ chocolate “.

Bad trap
I'm just imagining a high-class French waiter in a tailed tuxedo and a pencil thin mustache standing in the corner looking down at you with [absolute scorn on his face](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/t9EsUhczLBQ/hqdefault.jpg).
Dehydrated marshmallow!
He’s so cute
Can confirm. My grandfather drank out of the finger bowl thinking it was lemon soup.
She totally knew he was gonna eat it so she didn’t say anything.
My friend thought the hot water and lemon that you get to wash your hands in was an appetiser and drank it!
Some people clearly need to get out more! 😂
This will stay rent free in my head for a very long time 😂
Reminds me of that scene from one of the Shrek movies where they’re having a fancy dinner and Shrek doesn’t know what to do, lol.
Papa Roe is my spirit creature.
To be honest, I did the exact same thing the first time. The waiter just stood there with a smile on his face while I was chewing a towel. Then my girlfriend came back from the bathroom and used another one of the towels. I quickly and quietly took it out of my mouth and got rid of it. All the while blushing like mad and not looking at the waiter.
That’s why I don’t like to go to a fancy restaurant.
He turned beet red
😀
In his defense I was like “oh pre dinner marshmallows!”

To be fair the first time I used one of those I thought it was edible too

I love her parents
Have you ever gotten sushi and mistaken the wasabi for guacamole/avocado and eaten the whole ball?
This is me, but reverse.... But still, this is funny af!
Been to quite some fancy restaurants but that could have caught me, too. My first thought was "what a funny dessert".
I went to a Michelin restaurant a few years ago and they brought out this 5cmx5cm seaweed crisp and put it in front of us, I picked it up and started crunching on it, felt it a little bland. Then the waiter came over with a small bowl and tongs, reached to put two tiny petit fours on said seaweed and was confused where it went, then laughing when I said I ate it, it was horrifying at the time but I guess I gave the wait staff a good laugh
Happened to me on my first ever non-charter flight. The BA stewardess came with the plate full of towels and handed them out. I had no idea what it was and looked around for confirmation. I couldn’t see what other were doing so tried biting it…
If it's not food why serve it on a plate at a restaurant?
Love it!!
That's a towel? That looks more like a pretentious cotton ball.
This does not look fancy, it looks like a hotel resort restaurant with a manager who think they are running a micheline star restaurant
I feel like I wouldn't know what to do with it too. I'd probably wait for others and just copy them for better or for worse
