Retro Revival Blog Challenge: Forgotten Food and Dining Experiences
What stands out the most to me when thinking back on my childhood restaurant experiences are smoking sections .Smoking was allowed not only in restaurants,but also bars,shopping malls and certain places of employment.It wasn't something that bugged me as a kid ,seeing as how practically everybody In my family smoked at the time.I'm pretty sure It must have bugged some non smokers but all in all ,both sides were accommodated.One side smoking,the other non-smoking.I don't know, Is It just me ,are were people generally alot calmer back then?You didn't have to rush your meal to run out for a quick smoke before your 45 minute lunch break came to an end.You didn't have to pop any anti anxiety pills either,one smoke pretty much did the trick.I quit 10 years ago but sympathize with those who smoke today.They are treated like misfits and god knows the shits gonna hit the fan If they ever decide to make It illegal.What's your take?
