The lexicographer and director are being consistent and applying the rule correctly every show in recent series. Nothing wrong with the restaurant rule – more specifically, a ‘portion of’ or ‘unit of’ rule – its application. In fact they have been applying mass noun rules more consistently and are remaining true to going for what is grammatically correct and in common usage, hence disallowals of sedations x and mileages x. If you up ‘bacon’ and ‘pilau’ on this https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries. ... on?q=bacon, it gives ‘bacon’ as uncountable and ‘pilau’ as both uncountable and countable.
