I'd say that 75% of non-ethnic and 100% of all Oriental restaurants...I would never eat in.
So you only do take out?

An Onion Pie
18th Century version:
"Wash and pare some potatoes and cut them in slices, peel some onions, cut them in slices, pare some apples and slice them, make a good crust, cover your dish, lay a quarter of a pound of butter all over, take a quarter of an ounce of mace beat fine, a nutmeg grated, a tea-spoonful of beaten pepper, three tea-spoonfuls of salt; mix all together, strew some over the butter, lay a layer of potatoes, a layer of onions, a layer of apples, and a layer of eggs, and so on till you have filled your pie, strewing a little of the seasoning between each layer, and a quarter of a pound of butter in bits, and six spoonfuls of water; close your pie, and bake it an hour and a half. A pound of potatoes, a pound of onions, a pound of apples, and twelve eggs will do.
— GLASSE, HANNAH, “THE ART OF COOKERY MADE PLAIN AND EASY” P. 259"
21st Century
Ingredients
4 small Yukon Gold potatoes
2 large Granny Smith apples
2 medium yellow onions
8 large eggs
3 tsp. Kosher salt
1 tsp. freshly cracked pepper
½ to 1 grated nutmeg
½ to 1 tsp. mace
4 oz. butter
frozen puff pastry or homemade pie crust
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Boil and slice the eggs.
Pare and slice the potatoes, apples and onions. Slice everything ¼ inch thick. Place the apples and potatoes in a bowl of water to prevent oxidation.
Roll out the bottom crust and set it into the pie pan.
Mix the salt, pepper, nutmeg and mace to together in a single bowl.
Drain and dry the apples and potatoes with a towel.
Begin the layers from the bottom up with potatoes, then eggs, then apples and then onions. Sprinkle each layer with a little of the seasoning and little bits of butter. Continue filling and seasoning the pie until you are out of ingredients.
Put a top crust on the pie and crimp the edges. Cut 4 or 5 slashes on top crust to allow steam to vent out.
Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is a nice golden brown.

My friend's daughter does that. At least she used to. She may have out grown it.
It does get some interesting looks.

I'll order Eggbeaters, over easy.
Always takes 'em a second, then I get The Look.

Translation programs can get you in trouble. See that 180 UAH - it should be grams. But it’s Ukrainian money.
I didn't even notice that. I knew it was grams.
Just like when the transition calls for 800 grams of "torture" I know that it's flour. But considering that I'm using Google Lens to translate the text from a screenshot, I'm surprised it's not worse.

I figured the Captain's coat was navy. Not light blue. It didn't look dark enough to be black, so I figured dark blue.
I think a lot of assumed that Captain was in the Navy and so would wear a Navy Blue jacket.

Didn't all Chrysler products have left hand thread lug nut on the left side of the car until the 70's at least?
I think so.

My cousin had a set of kerosene lamps. I asked why there was no oil in them, he said he couldn't get them open. After a bit of struggle I figured out they were LH thread. Why would anyone put LH threads on a lamp?
Maybe they were made in Australia.

As SDJ pointed out the left handed threads “if you can’t see them” will put a kink in many people’s plans . But sometimes they are necessary. A friend of mine who just changed the clutch on an Echo chainsaw told me it was threaded on LH . I’m assuming because of the direction of rotation of the clutch?
My brother bought a 1941 Powerwagon back in the early '70s. Found, after much swearing, that the driver's side wheels had LH thread lugs.
