Between a Rock and a Hard Place

Meaning: faced with two equally undesirable alternatives. having friends over from two different spectrums of life - with different likes and dislikes is most certainly finding myself between a rock and a hard place. How does one cater for them? Some don't eat meat, some don't eat fish, others don't eat veggies, then the rest are on a diet? REALLY PEOPLE . . . cant we all just agree to agree once in a BLUE MOON!!

We do have this in our group too. And if we are going out to eat then we choose a place where we have veg and non veg food too

I know the problem very well, ask them to bring their own food.

We are running into this problem more and more. We usually make a frittata which is vegetarian and should be low-fat but if someone doesn't like vegetables then you'd need to think of something else.

Maybe this is why we have freedom of choice and individual differences

The solution is ....to have everyone buy their own food I guess
