I guess this series of events could be interpreted as rude & a result of the meal ordered but in reality i never wanted to talk to you & was just humoring you until i was able to escape the situation.

Maybe it all just makes me a bad person, but has nothing to do with race, creed, etc, just my own personal anti-social personality,
I talk for a living. I don't want to do that when I'm on an airplane. Every time I fly out, apparently someone from the town recognizes me on the plane and I have no idea they're even there. I put on my headphones and immediately zone out. So you're less of an anti-social traveler than me!

You will see Jain sadhus and sadhwis ( holy men and women) wearing cloth masks at all times since while speaking you are warming up the air and killing microorganisms.
Does that mean hydrophonic root vegs are ok?

Pluck the carrot and the green stuff on top of it dies? If so, then hydroponic root veggies may still be off limits. Applied test is something like that.
