[Sca-cooks] Offboard/onboard was Diabetic needs

[Stefan li Rous]

<<< I'm in agreement here.  I am on a sodium controlled diet and it's  
up to me
to make sure that if I'm at a feast that I am prepared with food for
myself.  I like it ever so much better there is an 'eat off board'  
option
for feasting, and I can come prepared with the things that would allow  
me
to feel like I'm also in 'feast mode' rather than create fuss and  
bother,
and looking like I have a problem.

Since it has been a while since we discussed this, I want to put in a  
request/vote for those who are eating "offboard" to be able to eat  
sitting among their friends, rather than being off in another section  
or evicted from the feasthall.

Yes, I realize that allowing non-feasters to eat in the feast hall  
does complicate serving, and in a few cases there simply isn't enough  
room. But when it is possible I think it should be done.

In Ansteorra, you can almost always eat with your friends even if you  
don't purchase the feast, but that apparently isn't true in many  
(most?) areas.
