In response to "Yep. feeling lost and unsure of what to order in an unfamiliar restaurant is a universal experience." by Roger More

exactly. the lack of knowledge in the situation had very little to do with education, more to do with specific exposure.

she could have been non-higher-educated but italian and know the terms of the restaurant. his whole take on the incident (if it really happened), was just so off - he said he was unthinking to take her there, but worse was not helping her learn and letting her feel less-than because of simple lack of exposure.

many highly educated people don't know those meats.

starbucks is a great example of something that's common and yet required all of us who started going there to sound a little dumb at first. nothing to do with schooling/general education.
