So the thought was to share that it's our dinner and we are
allowed to make whatever we want.

I always do that. I will not dine anywhere where they do not serve things I
can eat. I did make one exception recently but only because my husband was
hosting a specific event through the military and I was supposed to attend
it. The food was a buffet, so I assumed there would be something I could
eat. There was salad. That was about it. I did try to eat some mashed
potatoes (which are normally a good food for me, assuming they are eaten
with protein), but they tasted awful and I couldn't eat them.

In this case, I did not indulge in things I should not have eaten. Instead,
I ate only enough so I didn't get a hypo and left there hungry. That kind
of made me angry since we were at a fancy club, but that's the breaks
sometimes. Normally, I would refuse to attend such an event.
