Are you serous? You mean you drink?

I don't even take cough medicine that has alcohol in it.

I would not go in a "bar" to eat, I don't drink any alcohol, but I don't consider Olive Garden, or Applebees a reson to avoid either.

Some of you in this thread seem to enjoy promoting your backslidden alcoholism. That is NOT good.

Surely not! Alcohol is disgusting.

I am very fortunate that the area in which I live is dry. My home town is dry as is my wife's home town.

Sometime when we are traveling we may wind up in a restaurant that serves alcohol, like when we went to San Antonio. But we try to go to places that don't serve alcohol, it make us very uncomfortable.

]We usually go to Golden Corral or Ryan's, someplace that is family friendly. I don't care to be around a bunch of drunks while I am trying to eat.

We eat where the food is good and where the service is good...and many places have bars...I really can not remember the last time I saw anyone drunk in one of those places.....

I wonder if prices at most chains are any higher in counties that are dry? Most places sell drinks at such inflated prices that it really becomes a major profit center for them.
