The Problem I have with Off-board is that it encourages people to run to the
local McD's or KFC, pick your favorite Fast food place, and then bring that
back to eat so that they don't miss anything.  Not only does this take away
from the atmosphre of the feast but if you can afford Col. Chicken you can
generally, in my Kingdom anyway Calontir, afford to eat the feast.  Now if
you are allegeric to most of the feast that is different. Or you have picky
children, and not every event has a children's feast, that is also
acceptable. But just to come to feast and eat a Big Mac. NO don't even do
that!
