Not really, Janet. You don't actually know us. When I cook a meal we
usually share whatever meat I choose to make unless it's something he
clearly doesn't like, as well as at least one of the vegetables that we
both like. I willl make a second vegetable for each of us. It's no big
deal.

If I want Chinese I have it, and he may go and have a McDonald's. I don't
care. Other similar situations, too. I don't cater to him as much as I
may have implied.

Everyone has likes and dislikes. For example, I absolutely detest oysters
and squid (unless it's fried). There's no way in hell anyone could make me
eat them.
