  I agree!!! Come on girls, don't order something EXPENSIVE and
  then be finicky about it.  Put yourself in the guy's shoes, if
  it fits, otherwise you shouldn't be eating at all :-) .  But
  seriously I always finish what I order, even if it's one of
  those mega-tostadas with heaping servings of rice and beans
  or the humungo-chimichangas ....mmmmm, yum yum yum.  I sure
  miss California.  I think the poor guy who's taking you out
  deserves some consideration.  Besides, have you ever been
  attracted to a finicky guy who picks at his food???  Go for
  the gusto and pig out!  Then jog it off the next day.
