We too are a society!!!
I gave up on trying to show my little card a long time ago because most place don't even honor it. I've even been denied or charged "extra" to order from the kids menu without a child present! which really pissed me off. Anyway, nowdays, I just order from the regular menu and immediatly ask for a "to go" plate. Heck, there are so many WLS patients out there now that restaurants would go broke if they started offering us special discounts.
