For example:

  • When you open a fresh jar of peanut butter do you only work through one side until it is completely empty then start on the other side?

  • Or when you get those shallow tubs of hummus does it have to make it back home undisturbed? Then one of the baggers at the grocery store shoves it sideways into the bag completely ruining the symmetry.

    But sides are made in consideration of the main course and are intended to be eaten/enjoyed together.

        Because they are a separate course and not a side. They call it a side salad like Americans call the main dish an entree, we like to use words wrong.
