One person shares their experience of trying to find a solution to the ongoing food battle with their in-laws, who seem to have a penchant for overloading everything with mayo, ranch dressing, and cheese. 🧀🤢 Can they find a way to spend time together without food being the center of attention?

Food Wars: Are They Being Too Picky? 🤔
In an attempt to avoid their in-laws' unappetizing food, this couple tried suggesting non-food related activities, but they always ended up back at the mayo sandwiches. Even a pizza and salad compromise didn't work, as the in-laws accused them of being no fun. When the husband declared no more food meetups, the mother-in-law threw a fit. Despite never complaining about the food and always offering help, the couple is met with criticism from the in-laws. So, who's being too picky in this culinary clash? Let's see what the internet has to say about this situation... 🍽️💥
