I went to the bariatric fashon show luncheon, and all I got was a ham sandwich and fruit
See, the thing about my job is, I don't make a whole lot of money doing it. But my perks can't be beat, and one of those perks, besides working in my jammies and talking to rockstars, is free lunches at swanky places. So when I go to cover a luncheon, I can expect at the very least some sort of fancy chicken thing with veggies and dessert, and if I'm REAL lucky, I get beef medallions or beef tenderloin like I did the other night.
Not today, though. In the spirit of healthy eating, all that was provided were ham and turkey sandwiches, fruit and some sort of soup that scared me when I looked at it. (It was the color of chicken broth, yet it was cloudy and sort of thick, and I couldn't see anything resembling vegetables or meat. For all I know, it could've been chicken-flavored Cream of Wheat.)
Sigh.
The real gyp? The models who were showing off their fantastic weight losses got meatballs in red sauce and veggies and dip in THEIR quarters.
