That request doesn't add up, so I want to check before doing anything.

You've told me you're vegetarian and always have been, but chicken katsu is a breaded, fried chicken cutlet, so it's not vegetarian. A few possibilities:

- You meant a **vegetarian katsu** (e.g., tofu katsu, sweet potato katsu, or a plant-based "chicken" katsu). If the signup has one of those options, I can add that.
- The order is genuinely for someone else, or your preferences have changed.
- "Chicken katsu" is a typo/autocomplete slip for something else.

Also, for the practical side: I don't actually have access to your team lunch signup (I'm working in a local `/tmp` directory with no such file or integration here). If you can point me to the signup sheet, form, or file, I can help fill it in.

Let me know which katsu you actually want and where the signup lives, and I'll take care of it.
