Was I wrong to serve traditional food at my housewarming?

When it comes to serving food to guests, it’s hard to please everyone. But what if your guests accuse you of serving dog food? That’s what happened to me when I cooked a traditional recipe for my housewarming party. My wife’s brother’s girlfriend was not a fan of the beef cheeks and tongue I served and accused me of serving dog food. While everyone else enjoyed the meal, she took to Facebook to call me names and insult my upbringing. Was I in the wrong for serving traditional food? Or was she being ridiculous? Let’s discuss.

The man is left wondering if he was wrong to serve cuts of meat that are less common in American cuisine. Read on for the full story and reactions from commenters.
