When you go out to eat at a restraunt after all the appetizers and the big meal when the waitress or waiter comes to bring you the bill and says would any one like desert? Do you order it and eat it there or are you so full that you say no thanks I couldn't eat another thing. Or do you order it and take it home with you?

Ocassionally when I want to go all the way and enjoy myself I order dessert but I order something small that I share with my husband. Applebee's this great dessert which is small. I think is called strawberry shortcake or something. The crust is made out of cookie crumbs...mmm so good. They put a piece of this strawberry shortcake on a a very small cup and they top it with whip cream...yummy. If you share it with two people you will be able to finish it with a few spoonfuls.

Back in the day, yes I would order desert, but for the passed several years, I have cut out sweets in my diet. Every great once in a while I will eat a piece of candy. But as a rule, sweets are not my thing.

I hear you. Sometimes I feel so full I might get it to go for my husband but I like sweet things but not really that much.

That actually depends on the restaurant. There is one place that I used to go to in Oklahoma City that had such good food, I would have to order dessert first if I wanted to eat it! All of their food was just delicious!

It was an Italian restaurant. They had a triple chocolate cake that would make your teeth hurt by just looking at it! It was sooooooooo good!

When I arrive at the restaurant and sit down at the table I usually have every intention to order dessert especially as I check out the menu! Sadly by the time I have finished the main course I usually have no room for dessert which really annoys me but it happens almost every time so I generally give the sweets a miss which is a little disappointing at the time but my waistline is thankful I’m sure!

I love desserts and my friends know that. If I don't order dessert they usually tease me and ask me if I am ill or something If I am full I usually wait a little before I order dessert, but after a while I am usually able to eat dessert. Most of the time I choose a kind of icecream or maybe a piece of pie. Cheese is also a very popular dessert in my country, but I usually prefer to eat something sweet

I am usually too full to order a dessert but if I wait a while after I finish eating, I might order one and if I can not finish it I will end up taking it home for later . I never heard of cheeses for a dessert. Unless it was a cheesecake

I hardly ever order a dessert when I go to a restuarant. Eating the meal usually is enough for me. If i seem something special that looks heavenly to eat, i would probably go for it.

I don't ever order desert. Most of the time I don't even finish my meal and I end up taking part of it home. I normally don't get an appetizer either.

If I have been craving something sweet and want to have a treat if we go to a restaurant I will have a very small entree, say soup and salad, and then I don't feel too full to really enjoy that dessert!

I can make deserts that are just as good or better than the deserts that are served in restaurants. There is only one place that i order desert at and that place has a moose cake that is unbeatable. It is one of those things that is well worth getting every time that you stop and eat there.
