I've had enough...

Iceberg wedges.

Some fancy places think this is a flash of retro wit, but most wedgies are still bad jokes, no taste and less nutrition. At best it's an excuse to soak up extra dressing, especially blue cheese, between the leaves (although I've had them served upside down). Charging $5 and up for such cafeteria fare really spoils the gag. Make my greens dark green so I know I'm getting my vitamins.
