the charitable cut

We took the boys out to breakfast this morning and boxed up what remained.

"Enough to feed another 2-3 people," we thought.

"It's a business thing," I said. "If they gave us only what we could eat it may appear as though they're not providing 'a good deal'."

The discussion led to "the charitable cut."

Can you imagine...

"Tonight's special is a 12-ounce NY strip served with garlicky smashed potatoes and green beans at $22.95. The strip is also offered as a charitable cut... an 8-ounce strip served with the same sides at the same price but $6 goes to the local homeless shelter and you don't have to carry anything home."
