Those are the fancy ones! Heck, that's a town of over 2,000 population. A metropolis!
Think rural, towns under 500 people. Menus with 6 or 7 options: burger, a couple steak options, pork chop, maybe chicken, maybe fish, maybe meatloaf. Some of these places are in towns with less than 100 people, but they draw folks from the farms and small towns in the area.
A jukebox and pinball machines provided entertainment, and on Saturday nights there might be a two or three piece band, with dancing either on a very small dance floor or just in the wide area between the two rows of booths. The whole place would typically seat no more than 100 people, usually less than 50.
Y'all are too citified with your fancy supper clubs that have fancy food and fancy drinks. In your world, these might be called taverns, but the rural folks like having a supper club, so they called it that.

Lastly, weren't the onions carrying Salmonella? If this doesn't self-resolve very soon, may want to see a doc or visit an urgent care.
Yes, that's why they got thrown out, but that was after I had already had some.
I've muddled along for over a week with this already, and I'm not dead yet, so I suspect I won't need to see the doc. If either of those change, I'll let you know.

Stuff you already know:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/salmonella/symptoms-causes/syc-20355329
An excerpt:
In some cases, the diarrhea associated with salmonella infection can be so dehydrating as to require prompt medical attention. Life-threatening complications also may develop if the infection spreads beyond your intestines.
I can testify. Years ago, I wound up in St. Pat's down in Lake Charles, with my lytes out of whack due to Salmonella.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

Yep, the various ethnic clubs took that role in Southwestern PA. The Hungarian Club, the Sons of Italy, AOH (Ancient Order of Hibernarians), etc... To this day, you if you are a guest of a member or have an associate membership, you can go in and get a fantastic meal for under $5 and wash it down with dollar beers.

Ayuh. My dad's an Elk. If you were a teacher in my area you pretty much had to be.

Ayup, it has the potential for trouble and I'm glad not to go that route. That and norovirus are nasty things.
I'm doing better today. That fits the usual timeline of 10 days. I'm on day 10, and things are getting better, much better.

That's for the larger cities. In the very rural areas, any mention of elk means it's a wild game night, and elk is on the menu.

That explains a lot.

Your mom was into beastiality, just like your sister.
I wrote a punk song in college called "SadoMasochistic NecroBestiality". It was about people that enjoy beating a dead horse.
