I already know what nutmeg tastes like in savory sauces and don't like
it. That's why I will leave it out. What really annoys me is when
it's not mentioned in a menu description and I can't enjoy what would
have been a very good dish if they'd just left it out or at least
mentioned it on the menu so I could have ordered something else.
