When hosting guests, it’s natural to want to accommodate their needs.

Sometimes, though, these expectations can lead to unexpected tension.

How would you react if a guest made a surprising request for food that you weren’t prepared to fulfill?

In the following story, the poster finds herself embroiled in breakfast drama.

Let’s see how it all played out.

AITA for not making him what he wants?

My SiL and her husband arrived last night.

As we were helping them get their stuff into the guest room, her husband, who I’ve met like three times, said, “Waffles for breakfast would be great.”

I was a bit taken aback, but then I assumed it was a joke that didn’t land well. We don’t have a waffle iron anyway.

I made the usual eggs, beans, and toast for breakfast.

When SiL and her husband came in, he frowned and asked where the waffles were.

Here comes the drama.

I said I didn’t make any. He asked why.

I was a touch annoyed and said this isn’t a restaurant.

He said they are guests, and their needs should be taken into account. Then he said he was allergic to beans.

I asked why he didn’t tell me he was allergic to beans.

He said he told me he wanted waffles, and the reason why shouldn’t matter is because they are guests.

My husband jumped in and said eat eggs and toast, or go get breakfast elsewhere.

He left with SiL. Did I break an etiquette rule?

AITA?

Not sure that’s how guests are supposed to treat their hosts.

Here’s what the folks over at Reddit had to say about it.

Some people would never act like that at another person’s house.

This is a fantastic analogy!

According to this person, the lady just needed to vent.

Here’s a practical answer.

This guy seems very entitled!

If he wants specific food, he should request it more politely or go to a restaurant.
