Eating and/or drinking allowed on these premises.
Should I use 'and' OR 'or'?
Thanks.
I would use "and," just because "and/or" sounds to busy in the context of a notice. I would not use "is" or "are" in such a notice, seeing it as unnecessary.
I usually see: No Food or Drink Allowed.
Honestly, I've never see a sign giving permission for this activity.
But if it IS allowed, then I'd suggest
Food and Drinks allowed on these premises.
Not sure why; it just sounds better.
Thanks, Setanta and Punky.
