So anything that is already bite-sized is generally in the "safe meeting food" category. And to combat the "food stuck in teeth" problem, chew with the back teeth, and carry handy-dandy floss pics in your purse. <a href="http://www.wdrake.com/walterdrake/Shopping/ProductDetail.aspx?CID=Personal+Care+%26+Apparel&SCID=Mobility%2C+Remedies+%26+Pills&ProductID=1001784&affid=none&SourceCode=none" rel="nofollow">this page</a> is an example of what I'm talking about. Just excuse yourself to freshen up, and in the relative privacy of the ladies' room you can remove all sorts of food bits. My issue isn't about whether the food is messy; it's about scanning the menu and deciding what I want to eat in a reasonable amount of time. I can spend *forever* agonizing over which option I'd like to eat. Indecisiveness is probably not the trait I want to demonstrate at a business meeting, LOL.

I got home and found a tiny little piece in my hair that no one bothered to tell me was there. Niiice.

The thought of eating soup in front of people is frightening to me, though. Always afraid of dribbling down my chin. :) How 'bout little quesadillas or something? Or maybe just cake meetings from now on. ;) Going out for a meal with just a book for company is one of my favorite indulgences!!!
