rybreadsmomshubby Posted October 15, 2010 #26 Share Posted October 15, 2010 It would definitely be a nice offering for those who are dieting or those who are diabetic. Dieting. Cruise. What's wrong with this picture? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefSusan Posted October 15, 2010 #27 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I'm all for steak sammies and Diet Dr. Pepper on board!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litewait Posted October 15, 2010 #28 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Bring back the onion rings on Lido!! :( I complain every cruise that they are gone!! Not everyone does french fries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted October 15, 2010 Author #29 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I suppose you could put some of the nacho cheese sauce on the steak sandwich - not sure exactly what that would taste like, but I'm willing to try. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koval Posted October 15, 2010 #30 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I vote for a steak sandwich!!! I never had one when they were offered, that was before my sailing days began, but that sounds really good!!! I loved the idea of root beer and ice cream!!! what a great idea On all my cruises we have toted on a 12 pack of Root beer & Orange (Yummy), just for that reason, take the big water glass from the cabin, head to the lido deck, fill 1/2 way with soft serve, top with root beer or Orange and head for dinner. Forget their ice tea ;) One can works well for two people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obx_fintoo Posted October 15, 2010 #31 Share Posted October 15, 2010 How about getting Bud Light Lime on board:D This was a choice on the Fascination in August. Even had a special on Bud Light buckets - $13.50 for 4 cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KruznKel Posted October 15, 2010 #32 Share Posted October 15, 2010 This was a choice on the Fascination in August. Even had a special on Bud Light buckets - $13.50 for 4 cans. Really interesting I was on the Valor last month and didn't see a Bud Light Lime in sight anywhere.. guess I will have to wait till the Liberty next year and hope they have it... Nice deal on the Bud Light...:DThanks;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy cruzin Posted October 15, 2010 #34 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Bring back the onion rings on Lido!! .....and the roast beef at the deli! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted October 15, 2010 #35 Share Posted October 15, 2010 If I could swap out those steak sandwhiches-- (yes they are good) but I'd rather see hot wings one night at the buffet late night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted October 15, 2010 #36 Share Posted October 15, 2010 It used to be a tradition of mine to get a steak sandwich as soon as I embarked. When the steak disappeared, I would go to fish and chips. If the ship I was on didn't have fish and chips upstairs, I was lost! Would much rather have my steak back!

jpg1747 Posted October 15, 2010 #39 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I'm lobbying for them to add the yummy chicken salad sandwiches you get at afternoon tea to the deli choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chicken tenders are pretty tasty. On one ship they did have a bowl of Buffalo sauce but it kept going fast. For my next cruise, I've added a bottle of hot wing sauce to my packing list. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onthehighseas606 Posted October 15, 2010 #41 Share Posted October 15, 2010 I'm all for the return of the steak sandwich with the grilled onions. And definitely for a diet melting chocolate cake or the return of the flourless chocolate cake using Splenda to sweeten it. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo2310 Posted October 15, 2010 #42 Share Posted October 15, 2010 What would be the point of sugar free Chocolate Melting Cake? :eek: It would be great for diabetics! Even though they can consume some carbs - sugar-free would be great for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onthehighseas606 Posted October 15, 2010 #43 Share Posted October 15, 2010 It would be great for diabetics! Even though they can consume some carbs - sugar-free would be great for them! Exactly. Diabetics only get ONE choice for dessert on the menu. And the most disgusting sugar free dessert is that pumpkin pie! Something new would be good. Also, if you are a lo-carber by choice it's another alternative to what is now being offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasTodds Posted October 16, 2010 #45 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Would love more soda variety. Although I'm fairly certain that French Onion Soup is made with a beef broth base...atleast that's the way I make it. :confused: Therefore can't really be counted as a vegetarian offering.??? That's what I thought also when I read it. I don't really make this, BUT I have eaten it enough to know it is a beef broth base...just wouldn't be the same in a veggie broth base.

You're right about needing more choices for lo-carbers....I have diabetes in my family and because I have followed a low-carb diet for the last 7 years, I have been able to stay off meds!! so here's to new options!

Off Topic - But Jason's Deli (franchises) makes an excellent French Onion Soup that is soy-based, so is vegetarian friendly. But you and the OP are correct, almost all other "mainstream" restaurants use a beef based broth. ( I have been a vegetarian almost 13 years now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted October 16, 2010 Author #49 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I know the question has come up before about the French Onion soup in the supper clubs, and they have consistently said that no meat is used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
