Woman comes up with way to improve Wetherspoons gravy – but some call it 'embarrassing'

When we're peckish or indulging in a meal out, we expect our food to be just the way we like it. But would you go to these lengths when you're in public?

A woman has recently gone viral for her particular eating habits. While she didn't see an issue, her friends were left gobsmacked.

Meanwhile, an ex Wetherspoons worker revealed this wasn't an isolated incident, saying: "As a
