Buying food for my team (slrpnk.net)

I manage a small team, and we're going through a lot right now so I've been buying lunch each week. I'm trying to be the supportive boss and buy them for they want, but it sucks. (It's from office funds, not my own money)

Last week they wanted fast food, and couldn't be persuaded to eat Burger King so I could get an impossible Whopper. We settled on McDonald's.

Today is pi Day, so I thought I'd get them pizza. I got garlic bread sticks for myself. I didn't see anywhere to customize, but they came covered in Parmesan. I probably should have known, but ugh.

I just want to enjoy something if I'm going through the trouble of getting the food. Now I'm sad. Anyways, thanks for reading my rant.

Edit: I told my husband about the incident, and I came home to freshly baked homemade vegan chorizo pizza and flowers. 🥰

Thanks. I get it, this is a Vegan space and I'm an outsider. Just trying to be a friend and empathize.

They do tend to go out of their way to make outsiders feel unwelcome.
