    I have read that thread so many times, I'm ashamed to say that I know the answers so well that I have to disqualify myself.

    Are you sure number 9 is chedder? From the thread I quote:

    15. When the food is ready, if the same server takes the food to the customer that took the order, that server should be comparing the plate of food with the written order to see obvious mistakes such as a wrong side dish, a wrong entree, missing things, or anything that's obvious like a grilled chicken dish that's supposed to have swiss cheese(yellow) has bright orange cheddar cheese.
    It sounds like to me the sandwich has cheddar on it but she wanted swiss. Mods, a clarification please?
