Which food bringers should be turned away from the neighborhood bbq?

Of course after my whining about vegan stuff, I will say I love hummus, but prefer my own, or select store bought brands.

I almost forgot the people who bring a half used whatever. Half a bottle of wine, half a bag of chips.

Barb, I adore potato salad, but not mine. I'm sure all that have had mine would agree that I'd be booted from the next bbq if show up with my cold, lumpy mashed potato texture, sorta vinegary pitiful potato salad.

@southernlady Hell no! Yuck!

Actually it isn't all that bad for a gelatin salad. I've had far worse version so a "blast from my past" was okay on that one. I think I had a spoonful. I was focusing on protein mostly.

I agree with your choices and will add to it, a vegetable tray. They never get eaten!

Thats funny! We had our first bbq of the year this evening and I made a veggie tray: broccoli, cherry tomatoes, carrot sticks, and black olives and my friends at it all up! lol. I used to love veggies and dip but was saving my tummy for a burger and ribs mmmm

Veggie trays always look beautiful and seem like such a great idea but, they are the thing I spend the most time repackaging for the fridge after they are barely picked over.

Pot lucks scare me. I don't know what these peopkes kitchens look like! I HAVE seen what the break room and restrooms look like at the end of the day however. Yep. I avoid potlucks.
