@amolith Of course I'd buy a mea at a resteraunt that doest iterate the ingredients. In fact this is rather common.

@freemo if I asked what was in my food and the restaurant refused to tell me, I would get up and leave. Sure, putting every little ingredient on the menu would be terrible overkill but they should absolutely tell the customer if asked.

@amolith Chances are you've never received an answer to that, shor tof a half-assed one. Recipies tend to be secret, they might tell you some of the ingredients but not every last one.

"Whats on this"... "A tomato sauce with onions", I assure you there is far more than tomatos or onions if they say such a thing. There is olive oil, basil, salt, pepper and whatever else.

Besides even if they wanted to tell you every last ingredient they probably dont know it. If they used can tomatoes I doubt they know all the preservatives and chemicals listed on the can.

@amolith @freemo KFC won't tell you their recipe and millions eat there, I hear McDonalds do a similar thing for some of their food. Not that it should be legal to keep ingredients secret, given allergies etc...
