1. Forget you are on a date or at an important business lunch, and order French onion soup anyway.
2. Panic slightly when the server brings out your soup and you realize you have made a bad choice.
3. Delicately poke at the top layer of gooey cheese until some broth pops through.
4. Spoon up some broth for a cheese-less bite.
5. Refrain from cursing when the cheese thwarts you and sticks to the bottom of the spoon despite your best laid plans to get a cheese-less bite.
6. Start over. This time, scoop up a corner of broken-off cheese, some broth, and a piece of bread. Attempt to slice the cheese with the edge of your spoon against the side of the bowl.
7. Hope important person across from you doesn’t notice the strings of cheese hanging off your spoon, and put the bite in your mouth anyway.
8. Refrain from cursing because the cheese is hothotohlordhot.
9. Sneakily pick off strings of hot cheese still hanging from your mouth.
10. Repeat until you are finished with the soup, your date leaves, or your boss fires you, whichever comes first.
