British food trend has customers eating out of dog bowls

Forget about plates, apparently.

There’s an unusual food trend in Britain that has customers eating a ‘dog’s dinner’ out of stainless steel bowls. Yummy!

Varsity, a pub in Warwick, England, has been serving authentic meals in dog bowls as part of its “Dirty Food” menu.

The restaurant’s unusual trend has been put in the spotlight after Zoe Carrington shared an image of her meal with the website We Want Plates, reports the Mirror.

‘We Want Plates’ campaigns against food being served on anything other than plates, including baskets or even shovels.

The meal is called Dirty Dog’s Dinner, which consists of bacon, baked beans, chips (fries) and sausages. The dish goes for £4.29, roughly about $8.75.

According to the Daily Mail, a Varsity spokesperson commented that it’s catching on. “The fun choice of stainless steel serving was introduced some time ago and it’s very popular with our student customers.”

“We proposed removing it but our customers thought we were barking mad as they love it,” she said.

Although eating out of dog bowls may be a thing for students, Twitter seem to be divided.

It’s too early to tell whether eating out of dog bowls is taking it too far. But for now, saying goodbye to the conventional plate seems like a definite no for most.
