'Sorry it’s not a turkey sandwich, Kate': Coworker criticizes the home-cooked Thai food that her colleague shares with the office, then she gets singled out with a personalized dish of unseasoned veggies and ranch

This small office liked to do family-style potlucks once a week, alternating cooks and giving each other a taste of their homemade cooking, but this one coworker, Kate, couldn't fathom a plate of food that was more complex than a PB&J sandwich. 

There's nothing better than a home-cooked meal… Apart from a delicious plate of pad Thai noodles, tom ka soup, or pad see ew. However, if you're lucky enough to ever score a home-cooked Thai meal, you've hit the culinary jackpot. But this bland, boring palate coworker didn't realize that she was missing out on potential edible greatness when she dissed her colleague's potluck dishes, passive aggressively wrinkling her nose at every Thai-themed potluck contribution. 

Perhaps the complex spices, savory aroma, and delicate flavors were off-putting to her, but after insulting her coworker's food, she certainly deserved the steamed-veggie punishment that came next. 

If you're going to act like a child, you're going to eat like a child.
